Old TV again

I got a DVD I had ordered in the mail today. It is an old TV series that didn't really become popular called "Future Cop". I watched it when it came out as the year before I had been involved in a Film Called Shoot and got to know it's stars become friends with one. Hard to imagine an Oscar winner as being as much of any ordinary man as he was but Ernest Borgnine has to be one of the nicest most natural people I have ever met. He treated everyone like he was one of them and vice versa.

About the TV Series he plays a veteran policeman who is partnered with an Android. Way before it's time but just imagine Data from Next Generation as a cop. Borgnine's character is the only non scientist who knows his partner isn't human. I could imagine it doing much better today as we are more open to the concept of artificial intelligence mind it will never be a match for natural stupidity.
