    All costumes and visual gimmicks aside, DEVO could seriously rock.
    I remember being 11 years old, watching this, and shocked that this esoteric group would perform on a pretty mainstream adolescent sitcom.
    But I'm glad they did.

Sadly at the time reviews actually meant something so Devo got hurt badly at the crucial point of their carrier. Unforgiveable! But then again, the press was always sniffy about them :(

    Energy dome off to DEVO that they even squeezed in some bits of the french fry and donut along with the unhappy woman, and 3:52 was a nice touch with the suit and hair.
    Familiar faces for us old-timers:
    Dena Dietrich and Merritt Buttrick (1:00), Mother Nature hanging out with Captain Kirk's son. Later interrupted at 2:06 by Marj Dusay, who didn't get away with stealing Spock's brain some years earlier. And the gent doing the introduction, William Bogert, well, you'll see him some years later interviewing Clayton Bigsby.
