I remember some TV movie where this family buys/adopts a robot child (a boy). As a remember he gets delivered in some barrel kind of thing, and it opens and there is this kid. Then the family has to adjust and he goes to school, but i dont remember much else.

Can anyone help name this?

Are you talking about D.A.R.Y.L.? I know that it wasnt a tv movie but I just figured you might of seen it on tv. Any idea what year or decade it was from?[/list]

I REMEMBER IT!!!!

It was Conrad. as far as I remember Conrad was concived in a genetics lab and was delivered to an elderly woman who raised him and also had a neighbor who was played by the grampa who gave gifts on Roseanne what's his name? Any way it turns out the head of the Lab Who was played by Willie on ALF wants Conrad back. Because ha was super smart and very special. I don't know why he looks like a normal boy to me.
( boy this sound alot like Team rocket to pikachu here).

But with the Help of 2 friends and the woman and Neighbor the rescue him .

thats what I remember . I know It sounds childish what I wrote i just remember some scenes.

Conrad??? WTF? Never heard of it, but from the description you provided, sounds like an extreme D.A.R.Y.L. rip-off.

I cant find any reference to that on the web. I remeber the company being called something along the lines of "The Perfect Child".

If you have any reference to a website with info I would greatly appreciate it.

Spelling it wrong. It's Konrad. It's a Wonderworks film. The site IMDB.com has info. Hope that helps some!

Well I was close!

Don't worry, this is like the third or fourth forum I have had to type this out on tonight! lol! Took me a while to find it too.

This is fantastic!
Thank you so much, this has killed me for years trying to find it out.
