I was gonna upgrade from Basic to Digital cable, and buy the expanded package just so I could get Tech TV and watch Max, recording all the eps.
Guess what they did? They EDITED THE EPISODES so they could fit more commercials in! They left their little doodlebug logo (opaque, not clear) on the screen, as if we didn't know just who we were watching. And they would squeeze the content of the program so they could show "alerts" of upcoming programs.
Do they not realize the irony of cutting Max Headroom to show more commercials? In the pilot episode "Blipverts" of ALL episodes? Don't they know their audience? Apparently not.
