Max Headroom (1987–1988)
10/10
So glad Shout Factory brought this back!

Max Headroom was a show WAY ahead of its time. The blipverts episode is just one example of how prophetic this really was. Max as a character steals the show. There's something about him that glues you to the screen. The music score is cool too (soundtrack anyone). My biggest complaint is that the DVD didn't have the original feature or any of the New Coke commercials. That being said, I was all to happy to really care since the DVD looks great. A lot of people may shrug their shoulders at this odd gem, but for sci/fi fans, its a real treat. Some of the miniature work looks dated, but in my opinion it only adds to the shows charm .I feel bad that a show this great has been forgotten for so many years. It really should have a bigger audience than it does. Hopefully the DVD release will give it a new life for the younger generation to appreciate it.
