Max Headroom background

Max Headroom

In the near future, a fearless TV reporter uses his skills and a cutting-edge AI duplicate to uncover the truth and bring it to the public.

In a world where television has become a constant presence, it's illegal to turn off the TV and televisions are given to those in need. In this world, Network 23's top-rated news program features a charismatic roving reporter named Edison Carter. However, when Carter uncovers a plot to hide deadly "blipverts" from the public, he's nearly killed. As a result, his consciousness is uploaded into a computer, giving birth to the computer-generated personality Max Headroom. Alongside Edison, Max, and their team, they fight crime, manage sponsors, outsmart rival networks, and bring in top stories. The series consists of 14 episodes.
