Profit

I just watched the pilot of a TV show called "Profit," a mid-season replacement from 1996 starring Adrian Pasdar, (also known as Nathan from Heroes). It's basically Richard III in a corporate setting, as this villainous character does everything in his power to rise to the top.
Anyway, it struck a strong Tex chord with me. The 90's music sounds quite similar, it has a very noir-style narration, and it even has a 3D computer interface that looks a lot like the interface of UAKM and Pandora. At times it feels like you're watching just the villain's side of a Tex story, like there's a familiar PI investigating the crimes Profit commits, but his scenes have been cut.
Anyway, it's not Tex, but I thought I'd pass it along. 90's noir story, available as a Tex-substitute.
