Mork & Mindy stars Robin Williams and Pam Dawber will be getting back together, but not for a Mork & Mindy reunion special or a movie based on the ’70s sitcom. Instead, the two stars will be teaming up in an episode of Williams’ new hit comedy series, The Crazy Ones.
CBS reports Dawber will be guest starring on an upcoming episode playing “free-spirited author who goes on a date with Williams’ Simon Roberts soon after his faith in everlasting love is shaken by the break-up of a couple near and dear to him.”
For those who need a refresher, Mork & Mindy was a spin-off of Happy Days, with Williams playing an alien from the planet Ork who traveled to Earth in an egg-shaped spaceship. Dawber co-starred as Mindy, a human who befriended the goofy, non-threatening alien. The series ran on ABC from 1978 through 1982 and earned Williams a Golden Globe for best actor in a comedy series.
“It will be a joy to work with her again,” said Robin Williams. “It’s a dream come true.”
“I’m so excited to be able to see and work with Robin again,” said Dawber. “I hear The Crazy Ones‘ set is a very happy one. I know it’ll be a great week!”
