RoboCop The Series 1x14 - Illusions

Complete Episode Link: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=JM7AUJR0

Due to time constraints/quality issues, I'll be uploading the full eps on MegaUpload and only posting -10 min previews.

A long-dead magician, Milo The Magnificent, appears to be plotting against OCP, specifically the Chairman, and has hired two infamous assassins to take him out. Is this an act of prestidigitation to fool Murphy into protecting the wrong target, or is Madigan's infatuation with a local magician the true sleight of hand?

Reggie Braga is a recurring second-tier villain (along with "Stitch" Molotov) and makes several appearances in the series.

The door-lock at Reggie's ammo dump is the same prop that used in the bank vault in Inside Crime.

Milo's "hired guns" Schmidt and Wilson is an obvious allusion (magic puns, haha) to the large handgun manufacturer Smith & Wesson.

RoboCop's leg holster is a cable-actuated prop (thin cables are pulled by off-screen puppeteers to operate the functions) that only consisted of a lower body section in the films and was shot second-unit, without the actors or even usually the director present. The opening for this episode was the only time you'll ever see more than the waist down. Someone (probably one of the puppeteers) wore Robo's right arm and stood behind it, creating the illusion (I'm sorry, I can't help it) that a full-suited actor was standing there. All of the holster shots were probably filmed along with the main unit.

That video monitor in the motel room must have been expensive, because they really didn't want to cut away from it, did they?

The cable attached to the flaming Mark 2 used to stop it can be seen trailing behind from the rear bumper. The rubber cement (the most common "spot flame" tool used in film) burning on the Robo helmet can also be seen bubbling on top.

I'll be uploading the entire series as I find time, have fun and Stay Out Of Trouble.

My favorite SCI-FI show from the 90's. I love Robocop movies but this series were even better

God, how do you know so much behind-the-scenes information regarding this (after researching the then crackdown on television violence, and the million dollar budgets it was given) excellent series?
