About the show
Automan is an American superhero television series produced by Glen A. Larson. It aired for 12 episodes (although 13 were made) on ABC between 1983 and 1984. It consciously emulates the visual stylistics of the Walt Disney Pictures live-action film Tron, in the context of a superhero TV series. The series was later shown in reruns on the Sci-Fi Channel.

The series starred Desi Arnaz Jr. as Walter Nebicher, a police officer and computer programmer who creates an artificially intelligent crime-fighting program, and Chuck Wagner as the titular holographic superhero. Despite the show's visual similarities to Tron, no computer-generated effects were used on the series due to budget constraints; Automan and his companion Cursor were instead brought to life through traditional animation and practical effects.
