Nearly three years after Dark Horse & Universal adapted the former's Timecop into a feature film with Jean Claude Van Damme, a TV version was sold to ABC, meant as a lead-in to Monday Night Football. However, with only one character returning from the movie, and that nearly three year time lag between movie and TV, Timecop flopped, and was gone before Christmas.
Don Stark, later of That 70's Show, took over the role originated by Bruce McGill in the movie. The only other familiar names include Kurt Fuller ("No Holds Barred", "Ghostbusters") and, in the series finale, Bruce Campbell.
Pardon the obvious pun, but time was not on their side.
Rating: C.
