Editorial Review:
The square-jawed tough-talking cartoon C.O.P.S. aired every weekday afternoon during the 1988-1989 television season. With its dead-on action and humor it became an instant hit with kids and parents launching a popular line of action figures vehicles and gadgets as well as inspiring its own comic book.The First 22 Original Episodes and Packed with Special Features!Disc 1 Episodes: The Case of the Stuck-Up BlimpThe Case of the Crime CircusThe Case of the Baffling BugmanThe Case of Berserko s Big SurpriseThe Case of the Bogus Justice MachinesSpecial Features:C.O.P.S.

C.O.P.S. Reviews:
Another classic toon finally get's its due 
2007-08-27 - You have to give Shout a lot of credit for finally making some old toons available on DVD (ie Captain N). C.O.P.S is definitely one of them. Now I'm sure some people remember this show by it's other name-Cyber Cops. But, for those of us who were old enough to remember, it's original name was in fact C.O.P.S. This set contains the first 22 episodes of the show. Although it can be argued about whether those 22 are even in any order given that the show didn't really have too much continuity. All that side, this set is definitely a good buy if you're fan of the show. Will we ever see another set, who knows? But, we can always hope.
Almost 5 Stars But... 
2007-03-17 - Where's the CCs (closed captions)? I don't have hearing problems, but I often watch DVDs with them on. Other than that, I love this 4-Disc digipak set. You will too if you remember this show. I used to watch it everyday after school when I was 10 (& think it's criminal that the show lasted for just season albeit 66 episodes). On this set, you get the 1st. 22 episodes with bonus material like slide shows of original sketch & concept art. Then there's 9 "C.O.P.S. for Kids" Over 8 1/2 hours of stuff in all.
A final note: Don't be fooled by the annoying "Incredible World of Dic" logo on the back of the box. Each episode has the late-1980s "Kid in Bed" logo intact.
A true cartoon classic in my day 
2007-01-09 - This is one of my favorite cartoons as a child - back in the day, the futuristic setting that the C.O.P.S show took place in was out of this world and as cheesy as it was, the show taught some good life lessons for children. It was simply clean and entertaining fun.
5 stars! 
2006-09-05 - I really liked this! the box was cool, the unique goodies, everything!
I'm looking forward for the next release!
One of the Greatest Cartoons ever!!! 
2006-08-13 - It's a sad shame it only lasted one season. But that doesn't mean the show was a flop. This show is, in my opinion, one of the greatest cartoons ever since Voltron. It has tons of action, excitement, and the following unforgettable characters in the show: Bulletproof (my all time favorite), Mace, LongArm, Highway, Bullseye, Hardtop, Mainframe, Bowser and Blitz, Mirage, Barricade, Sundown, Berserko, Big Boss with Scratch, his pet weasel, Buttons McBoomBoom, Nightshade (Mace's Sweetheart), Ms. Demeanor, Turbo Tu-tone, Rock Krusher, Squeeky Kleen, Brian O'Malley, Whitney Morgan, Mayor Davis, Commissioner Highwaters, and last but not least, Dr. BadVibes and his robotic companion Buzzbomb. This wonderfull 4-disk series is all about the daily struggles of Agent Baldwin P. "Bulletproof" Vess and his finest team of the most highly trained special police officers, the Central Organization of Police Specialists themselves, C.O.P.S. as they strive to rid Empire City of the nefarious kingpin, Brandon "Big Boss" Babel and his evil gang of Crooks, who will do everything of what it takes to seize all of the wealth and power for themselves and dispose the C.O.P.S. team once and for all. This is one hot DVD box set to have for your own pleasure of watching the C.O.P.S. team teach those crooks a lesson that crime doesn't pay and have those words ring in your ear, "IT'S CRIME FIGHTING TIME!!!!!" coming from none other than the C.O.P.S. team themselves!
