Back on TV: Max Headroom

According to their website, they will be rebroadcasting all 14 episodes starting this Friday! This series was doing ethics themes based on designer babies, corporate controlled media, brain scanning and more before some of us were capable of hitting record on the old VCR. "

    I saw the story, and had to check with my Tivo. It had already seen the show in the listings and was ready to record as per standing orders.

    Even had /. not covered this, the Tivo would have recorded it. That's the difference between a VCR and a Tivo.

    BTW, since chrisd didn't spoil it, I will - Edison doesn't die....

    Transformers are back and as popular as ever, along with G.I. Joe and a new, improved line of Masters of the Universe figures. Ahh, my childhood is "cool" once again.
