We all know him. I was pondering about him the other day, and realized that he's a cool character but I really don't know a whole lot about him. Here's what I want to know: A) Is their some history on this character? I recall seeing him in the series and was wondering if their was some more stuff their or maybe said in an interview ect. B) What do you think of the character?

We he really seemed to play a fatherly figure to an otherwise corrupt corporation. With that said, all I have to add is:
Behaaave yourselves!

"The old man" was cool in Robo1 but in Robo2, he was as corrupt as Dick Jones. For crying out loud, he approved the hit on Cain's crew. The mayor had it right when he called him a crazy senile old bastard. Ha, Ha,  that part was hilarious.

yeah EC .. while in R1 he seems as good and fair man in the R2 was his totally different ..hmm suddenly from so almost innocent old man to bad guy ?!  Or it was just the spirit of Dick Jones ?! I would rather see in the R2 the Dick Jones for the bad guy ( ahh and if I am right this actor died  )
The an "old man " in R3 was not too good actor for the role .. he was a funny and nervous and I really the feeling that this actor played many comedies .. but what we can want .whole R3 was as one big comedy or parody for first two films

I think, that Ed Neumeyer had put this guy as an counterweight for Dick Jones (but he still is more intrested in profit, than anything else, like every businessman). Without counter-weight, he had been put in R#2 as substitute for Jones...

I thought the old man was kinda cool in Robocop. I didnt like the way they completley changed his personality in Robocp 2 - but then I didnt like alot of things in Robocp 2!

The best line the old man had in Robo2 was when Robo and and Cain are fighting and he say, "Behave yourselves." that part was hilarious.

Yeah it sure was!
It was also fun at the end of the first movie when he was almost killed by Jones, how he just fixed his tie and was so calm...
