Really Marque? which version? too bad I don't get tech TV. there were actually two series the british one was about a half a dozen shows then an american version which the first half dozen were done from the exact same scripts with many of the same actors with some american actors taking the place of british ones though the main actors stayed the same (my favorits were syd and reg who ran a pirate telivision station) Jeffrey Tambor was in the american version. Frewer played dual charicters, Edison Carter, (freelance news/camera man) and Max Headroom. the whole show had a gritty Bladerunner feel and ran for a dozen or so shows. the thing is that though the show was interesting and rather well written, Max got amazingly annoying after a while and you just wanted to get back to edison carter. I know, way more then anyone wanted to know about it but in my opinion this was a show that could have run several seasons if it wasn't for the title charicter.
