Well I could for one, af course a sense of satire helps. "Between the
streets of Dallas and th beaches of Miami, THIS was Max Headrooms finest
hour!" Paraphrased. This line appeared in an episode after ABC gave the
show another chance by scheduling it between Dallas and Miami Vice. Also
the treatment of the TV ratings system as if it were the stock market
(complete with real-time ratings updates) was very good... Also this show
USED stereo as opposed to a lot of "in stereo where avail" shows that have
only the theme song in stereo. And now Twin Peaks USING surround.

Ahh but i digress...

Did anyone else notice when the "log lady" (WE in disguise) "moved" across
the room from the bar to near the exit. The guy form the weasle incident
who was bugging him reached over into empty air and bobby who looked over
toward the bar, saw the "log lady" turned toward the exit, saw the "log
lady" looked back toward the bar, no "log lady". I haven't rewatched it
yet to see if I saw this right, but I haven't seen anyone else mention it
so I thought I would.
