#MaxHeadroom

3 posts3 participants0 posts today

I was watching the #maxheadroom (1987) episode Lessons (S02E07) about Network 28 raiding and closing down a school for using pirated educational broadcasts and there is a (abridged) quote from Max that really struck me

"You can fool some of the people all of the time and you can fool all of the people some of the time

I say, if you don't teach 'em to read, you can fool 'em whenever you like"

I was thinking, wow, this is literally Amerika right now

#Channel4 used to let one view much more from their archives. Over the years I have periodically viewed "Max Headroom: 20 Minuutes Into The Future" (1985). This time I had to search the web. Post-apocalyptic #cyberpunk set in the world of deadly #TVratings. Love it. #MattFrewer went on to reprise the role of #MaxHeadroom in the #TVseries "The Max Headroom Show" (1985-7). Memories...

If only there was a 24 hour stream of #MaxHeadroom episodes, specials, and extras. And maybe some other bits and bobs. 🤔

OH, WAIT: twitch.tv/network47tv

Currently in the playlist:
- the ABC series,
- "The Original Max Talking Headroom Show",
- The Channel 4 "Max Headroom Show" (many with their original music + commercials)
- Assorted extras, commercials, music videos

There's also some assorted non-Max stuff, like TNG bumpers, Gazorra TNG edits, and more!

Enjoy it while it lasts! 😉
