I vaguely remember this one, and if memory serves, it died when stacked against Knight Rider. I think. (Beware, the Power of the Hoff.)
I remember he was partnered with an IRL human cop/detective, and all I remember is that being vector-based, his vehicle made Tron light-bike-esque 90-degree instant turns, causing his human counterpart to get slammed about the cabin during chases.
At least, I believe this is an accurate memory of the program. As a child, I was drunk through most of the 80s.
I remember the show. The floating cursor was called Sprite. On command it could create any needed vehicle. One time the bad guy gets away in a private jet. That is until Sprite derezzes the plane in mid flight considering it was a construct.
The human side kick. Was Desi Arnez. Was it a good show? Hardly. Was it mindless entertainment? Mostly. Had a very big tron feel. At the time that was the big thing. Could it be done today? I guess, only WHY. It’s like they want to redo Manimal. Just too awful to think about.
I say that knowing that in Hollywood. Bad ideas have a way of being done anyway.

I’ve been brainstorming on this a lot as well, except with a miniseries. I might make a separate thread.
