What is the TV show from the 80s or 90s that had a short haired girl talking in a strange voice, maybe even robotic? It was part of the show, but I can't remember what else the show was about. Maybe she was talking to something like a 'Zordon'... Can't remember.

I just remember her having short hair and having a strange voice at times... Or talking to something that had a strange voice.

Not sure if they were in a ship of some kind.

  • Could she freeze time by touching the ends of her index fingers together?

  • Zordon is a Power Rangers character...if that helps.

  • Zordon was a character in Power Rangers, but I don't recall a short haired girl with a strange voice in that show.

    Where did you watch it, which country? Was it imported?

Is it possible that you are conflating two different 90's TV shows? I can think of two shows that both match parts of what you said, but not all. As they are similar shows, similar tone, and aired around the same time, I wonder if you're just merging the two into one hybrid in your head?

Out Of The World (1987-1991) is a show about a half-alien teenage girl living with her mother on Earth. In particular, she talks to her alien father telepathically through a strange "cube" device:

Evie is able to communicate with Troy through a special "genetic" communication device known as the "cube", which he gave to her when she turned thirteen. The cube effectively functions as a telephone line to Antareus — it can even be used to leave Troy an "answerphone" message, as seen in the episode "My Little Evie". There are no controls on the cube; Evie simply calls for her father and the cube activates when he answers, deactivating when he "hangs up". Sometimes when Troy uses his powers whilst talking through the cube, a beam of energy is emitted directly from the cube.

Unfortunately, Evie had long blonde hair:

Small Wonder (1985-1989) was a TV show about a young girl who was actually a robot, built by her "father", to act human. I don't remember her voice ever changing, though she was a robot so I guess there could have been episodes where she had voice box problems. But she was a young girl with short dark hair:

Girl with short hair and robotic voice would fit with "Spadla z oblakov" a 1978 Czechoslovakian sci-fi TV-series for children. It was aired in the 80's in several countries, with the title translated to "She Came Out of the Blue Sky" in English

  • I remember the haircut looking shirt like Jean Luc Riker's character from Star Trek.....and I remember the voice being weird sounding. Think the hair color was blond or light brown. It wasn't black I dont think.

    Hi, welcome to SF&F. You should explain how this fits the question, because from just this image it doesn't look like a great match.
