    • Trivia
      Lydell Hamilton's company is named Global Guard. Writer/producer Glen A. Larson would use this name again in the first episode of his series The Highwayman (1987).
    • Goofs
      The series takes place in Los Angeles but the building pictured as the Interpol office is actually the Jacob Javits Federal Building in Manhattan, New York City. Later, Tanya arranges to meet Walter at Mott and Elizabeth in Chinatown, which is a real intersection in the Chinatown in Manhattan.

    AUTOMAN BIG SCREEN
    I saw this series also and thought it was fantastic !

    In the light of recent FX technologies and computer animation effects in the film industry over the last few years, I feel that the idea of this series would transfer very well to the big screen !

    Of course a great script/story/acting and direction would need to be part of the concept !
