Mediocre show at best. It has charming moments...but does a Robocop need to have charming moments? No. He mostly shoots things to fall on criminals or whacks them in the face...I will say, however, that some of the stunts/vehicle stunts are pretty good. The acting comes off as cheesy at times, which helps in a way, but then perhaps it doesn't. Glad I watched the entire show (Blu-ray) but it sucks the frame has stretched to be wide-screen so you lose a bit of the top and bottom. The DVD doesn't have this issue (original TV aspect full-screen ratio) but has a image quality issue which has been mentioned on video reviews/YouTube, etc. Supposedly, you get the original aspect ratio...but the image stutters and/or has data missing so you see lines of video data missing in the image frames. So, it's been a big toss up for collectors on which version to get - do you get the Blu-ray quality with a stretched image that isn't that great of video quality to start with...or do you go for the DVD version which has the original, intended framing for TV, but missing lines of video data.
It's cool to see this as it may bring back some 90s nostalgic feelings (not referring to the 80s original here) I meant the clothing/set designs/etc, seeing Toronto as the filming locations, the TV actors....but I don't see myself ever revisiting this show again. It's a one and done.
