Max Headroom was some cool-ass (yet still somewhat cheesy and weird) 80's television series that only lasted for a couple of years. It's a partially American and partially British TV series. Ya diggin' it, man!? It was created in the U.K. by a husband and wife duo that we don't even care about. The main character, Max Headroom (portrayed by American actor, Matt Frewer, while also wearing some barely visible makeup), was a stuttering spazz dude with blonde hair and (obviously) a very bad case of Tourettes. He lived inside a computer animated TV screen world in Sci-Fi junky junk food Las Vegas soda pop computer screen insanity batshit bastard's retromaniac land.

He even had a No. 34 U.S. hit single with the Fart of Noise with 1986's, "Paranoimia". It was an experimental New Wave and dance music song. Truly cool stuff! Ha!

It fucking sucked, and it fucking failed. There. I'll fucking leave it at that. PEPSI GENERATION FTW!

"Catch the wave?" I'd rather not, thank you.

Broadcast Signal Intrusion Event[edit | edit source]

In 1987, some clever jackass interrupted the airwaves of 2 Chicago television stations while wearing a Max Headroom mask. He has never been caught to this very present day. CRAZY!!! Oh, and also, he got his bare ass spanked by a flyswatter at the end as well, so there's definitely that! LMFAO.
