    what if the robot can exchange it's arm for a vacuum?

    sort of Kentucky Fried Movie style :)

    Aside note: since they have been less available to some, it is possible that some may have missed the Police Squad! (ZAZ 1982) series or The Kentucky Fried Movie (Landis 1977). I must recommend to those who only know the prominent works (Airplane!, Naked Gun etc.) to find and try the preparatory works.

    For some reason, this reminds me of a skit in Kentucky Fried Movie called "Eyewitness News".

    The skit was of a couple watching television while the news was on. The couple starts making out, and it's clear that the news anchor can see out of the television. The news crew gathers around viewing out of the television into the couple's living room...

    a google search will probably find the skit.

    At this point, I'm reminded of the jail cell scene in "Kentucky Fried Movie."

    I saw the year and thought this was going to be related to Kentucky Fried Movie's High Adventure segment about the poisonous fish.

    Reminds me of the Kentucky Fried Movie. During a 'commercial break' in the movie, a news caster chimes in with the headlines:

    "Moscow in flames, missiles headed to New York, film at eleven"
