In the near-future, human-sized dinosaurs have been brought back by an eccentric German scientist just to see if he can. Now, the scientist is planning to start another ice age in order to bring in a new society. In the wake of a dino-murder, police officer/publicity stunt diversity hire Theodore Rex is given permission to investigate, along with new partner Katie Coltrane (Goldberg), a tough cop with computer enhancements. Together, they deal with the evil scientist and his henchmen \\u201cEdge,\\u201d (Stephen McHattie), \\u201cSpinner,\\u201d (Bud Cort), and \\u201cThe Toymaker\\u201d (Peter Kwong).
