Review of C.O.P.S.

C.O.P.S. (1988–1989)
5/10
Nostalgia ain't what it used to be.
11 November 2018
Here's the thing. It's not always good to revisit your childhood with beloved cartoons of the past. Sure you get that nostalgic feeling and the inevitable moment where you remember seeing this one actual episode back in the day. But with it comes a certain clarity that you really had no taste back then. C.O.P.S. is a perfect example of this.

Like a lot of cartoons in the 80's this was made to sell a product namely action figures and toys. For some, like Centurions, the toys were way cool and the show only served to make you want to buy more toys. But C.O.P.S. was just kinda there as something you kinda watched and kinda liked but not really.

There's loads of colorful characters. Lots of shenanigans. Stories where people switch sides, or the baddies need to work together with the C.O.P.S. to take down an even bigger enemy.

But like a lot of things it's best left in the past where we can remember the good parts and not focus on how cheap and generic the whole thing is.
