How it feels

A cyborg police officer named RoboCop patrols a futuristic city fighting crime. This version is made for younger audiences so it avoids graphic violence and often uses non-lethal methods. The corporate villains are portrayed as foolish rather than evil.

What happens

RoboCop (also known as RoboCop: The Series) is a 1994 cyberpunk television series based on the RoboCop franchise. It stars Richard Eden as the title character. Made to appeal primarily to children and young teenagers, it lacks the graphic violence of the original film RoboCop and its sequel RoboCop 2 and is more in line with the tone of RoboCop 3. The television series ignores the events of the sequels and many character names are changed from the movie series. The RoboCop character has several non-lethal alternatives to killing criminals, which ensures that certain villains can be recurring. The OCP Chairman and his corporation are treated as simply naïve and ignorant, in contrast to their malicious and immoral behavior from the second film onward. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
