Max Headroom (Temporada 0)

Max Headroom es una serie de televisión satírica de ciencia ficción producida en Gran Bretaña por Chrysalis Visual Programming y Lakeside Productions para Lorimar-Telepictures que se emitió en los Estados Unidos en ABC desde marzo de 1987 hasta mayo de 1988. La serie se basó en el piloto de channel 4 British TV producido por Chrysalis, "Max Headroom: 20 Minutes Into the Future". La serie a menudo se confunde con un programa producido en Estados Unidos debido a la ambientación y su uso de un elenco casi en su totalidad estadounidense, además de ser transmitida en los Estados Unidos por la cadena ABC. Cinemax transmitió el piloto del Reino Unido seguido de una serie de seis semanas de lo más destacado de The Max Headroom Show, un programa de videos musicales donde Headroom aparece entre videos musicales. ABC se interesó en el piloto y le pidió a Chrysalis / Lakeside que produjera la serie para el público estadounidense.
