The show was basically about Walter Nebicher, who is a computer nerd at the L.A.P.D. and is shunned by most of his coworkers with the exception of the gorgeous Roxanne, played by Heather McNair. In his spare time, Walter creates a hologram that is able to reorganize matter into a human-like form known simply as Automan.

Automan (also known throughout the series as Auto J. Mann) and Walter create the ultimate crime-fighting team that is able to do what no other partners are able to do; walk through walls, make 90-degree turns in a computer-generated Lamborghini Countache, and travel long distances to other countries within a couple of hours in Automan's jet.

Automan did have limitations, though. When the morning hours came around and all of the toaster ovens and electric razors began to work, Automan's glimmer dimmed and had to go back into Walter's computer during most of the daylight hours to conserve energy.

Known by most Sci-Fi buffs as "the television series that took the 'Knight Rider' technology one step beyond," "Automan" pushed the boundaries of what the technology of the time could do. The series was very expensive to make, and took more shooting time than the standard six days for normal weekly TV programming.
