I never made that connection, and I am old enough to have seen Max Headroom when it came out. Thank you.
I would like to take this opportunity to state one of my core beliefs: we are all easily programmed meat machines. Accepting this fact is uncomfortable, but important.
Now that is what I call a series ahead of its time! Also saw it as it came out, had totally forgotten about that word.
I was young, and it was like a fever dream. I couldn't believe that was on TV. It was pretty darn subversive.
Like other really good satire it keeps predicting things it wasn’t trying to.
We’re living down to it.
HIGH LIFE
