Kevin’s Favorite Science Fiction Shows: #6 — Max Headroom

Max Headroom

IMDB link

General idea:  20 minutes into the (dystopian) future

Interesting because:  This series was way ahead of its time.  They introduced us to what CGI animation could do (even though Max himself wasn’t CGI—they literally did not have the computing power back then to pull it off) and the show was quirky and original.  Also, hacking.

Annoying because:  Production values were pretty low.  They were low enough that they distracted from the show at times.

Best season(s):  1

Worst season(s):  2
