The movie was creepy as hell at the time. I saw it on late-night TV as a little kid, and the Terminator-esque ending stuck with me.

The show could have taken it to a new level, and did flirt with doing so. Interesting note: At some point in the show, they go down to some sub-basement or something where old models are stored, and in the background out of focus you can see the Yul Brynner robot standing there.

But the show goes off the rails. After season 1 it's absolute shit that will make you angry for wasting hours of your life giving it a chance. I thought hey this is going to be cool if the robots escape into the real world, but the show utterly squandered that scenario.
