Mystery 80's show

This has been going through my subconscious for a while now and I can't place it. I remember watching a television show when I was a kid in the 80's about a giant floating, talking eyeball. It had a buddy who was a cop or something. Did I imagine this or does anybody know what I'm talking about? And I did some Google searching but didn't find anything.

Talking eyeball? Something CBS would like! (LOL)

I think that you're talking about Automan, which was a 1983-84 series on ABC. It was opposite Scarecrow & Mrs. King (CBS) & Bloopers & Practical Jokes (NBC).

Automan (Chuck Wagner) was a digital person (ala Tron) who helped out fighting crime with a former cop who works in the police computer lab (Desi Arnaz Jr.). The eyeball you probably referring to was Automan's weapon, Cursor, who could design things & make it real (ie motorcycle).
