Hear the theme. (in ra format)



A familiar sc-fi premise was combined with standard cop-show in this hybrid series set in Los Angeles in the near future (between 1998 and 2009). Homicide detective Bobby Mann, a guy so unmechanical he couldn't even get the soft-drink dispenser to work, found himself paired with "Eve", a beautiful, highly competent cyborg - the department's lastest gizmo in the war against crime. Eve had strength and superhuman capabilities that were certainly handy in a pinch. But she lacked Bobby's street smarts and the ability to deal with surprises ("not programmed ... not programmed!"). Most of the series dealt with his efforts to make her a little more human and a little less coldly rational. Mann disliked robots, but came to like Eve.

1."Prototype" Eve and Mann become partners and she find evidence that implicates another cop, Mann's childhood friend, in the murders of international steel brokers.

2. "Dating Game" Eve has her first date - with the top suspect in the serial murders of women linked by the same dating service.

3. "No Pain, No Gain" Eve revives a spiritless ex-cop by getting him to join an investigation of murders committed for body parts.

4. "Water, Water, Everywhere" Mann's food-reported neighbor investigates the murder of a reporter who broke a story about a contaminated reservoir.

5. "Torch Song" Eve's capacity for emotion expands when she makes friends with a singer who thinks she's being tormented by a music exec she suspects killed her sister.

6. "Mann's Fate" Mann moves in with Eve after his home is destroyed by a psychotic bomber seeking the person who busted him.

7. "Truth or Consequences" Eve learns more about the human condition while guarding a young girl and her mother, who's decided to testify against her accountant husband's mobster employers.

8. "Billion Dollar Baby" A genetically specific bundle of joy is worth a bundle to baby brokers who'll kill for the child, whose presence prompts parental passion in Eve.

9. "Cold, Cold Heart" Mann plays Eve's dying brother to investigate the death of a doctor who was the only hope for a terminally ill cryonics scientist.
