Yet, at the end of each episode, Eve always fought the bad guy’s untrained 100lb girlfriend/female assassin while Mann faced his bodyguard. The first two-three episodes overtly emphasized Eve’s flexibility.

It seemed more interested in inculcating Eve in the culture of womanhood than anything else but considering ST:TNG was in its 5 th season then and even RoboCop (1987) touched on the difficulties of the human mind in the android body, I wish the show had taken a page from their scripts.

In each ep Mann typically encountered Eve in various states of undress, taught her how to dance or wear make up, or protected her from male seduction. In lieu of an ongoing plot, the writers iteratively threw the leads into various romantic scenarios with a barely-there case of the week. Post-pilot, the show did not fully investigate the difficulties of android-human assimilation, and eventually focused on Yancy Butler’s looks. Epatha Merkerson’s presence without the IMDb reminder. On a side note, I barely remembered the typically awesome S. Also, Andrews’ character started as a hard-boiled street detective, but eventually found his character reduced to reacting to Eve’s unapologetically perfect body. Although Butler did a good job of playing the wide-eyed ingénue, she had yet to fully mature as an actor. Did a 9 th grader who just discovered literary devices write that? Clearly not, since even I saw through it. Come on now: Man(n), as the first man and Eve as the first robotic woman? Really, 1992 NBC? Really? Don’t forget the alliteration in the female leads’ names (Eve Edison and Captain Claghorn). The show’s basic premise is what if Vicki from Small Wonder grew up, became hot, and met her older brother as a cop? Epatha Merkerson ( Law & Order) as their boss, Capt. Remember Jack of All Trades ?, Queen of Swords? Dark Justice?, Parker Lewis Can’t Lose? Crimetime After Primetime? Well, in 1992, NBC - with Dick Wolf a creator and executive producer - introduced their own craptastic sci fi show: Mann and Machine, about a crime-busting robot and her street-smart partner with Yancy Butler ( Witchblade) as Eve Edison David Andrews ( JAG) as Bobby Mann and S.
I love craptastic pseudo-sci-fi/fantasy/teen flicks that no one else watches.
