I completely forgot about Riptide until I saw it on this list. I used to watch that with my brother after school. The robot on the boat was such a weird touch but I loved it. Also nice to see Jennifer Slept Here mentioned. That one was short lived but I thought it was so fun when I was a kid.
 
AutoMan. The neon car the digital suit the whole thing was wild. It did not last long but it looked cool at the time. They should have given that one a second chance. They dont make shows like they used to.
 
The Phoenix stood out to me. I remember watching it with my dad and being kind of mesmerized by how calm and mysterious it was. It felt more thoughtful than a lot of the action shows that were on. I would actually love to rewatch that one now and see if it still holds up.

I never watched Riptide and I heard that it was pretty good.

I watched a couple of episodes a few years ago. Its seemed decent. Maybe I'll give it another shot.

The Phoenix was ok. It was definitely calm from what I remember. That's another one that I need to reaquaint myself with.
