The Take
TekWar is not worth watching. William Shatner's produced series traps a decent anti-drug premise in low-budget 90s production that feels like a VR demo gone wrong.
Ex-cop Jake Cardigan hunts Tek dealers in a future full of wooden performances and dated wireframe effects. The moral clarity never overcomes the stiff execution or Shatner's occasional monologues.
The Verdict
TekWar belongs in the discount bin of forgotten 90s TV. The anti-drug thesis stays intact but everything else feels like cheap VR cosplay.
Skip it. Watch Andor instead.
