Max Headroom
It is the day after tomorrow, and television networks rule the planet. The TV sets themselves do not turn off, and the programming is designed to keep citizens in a state of complacency. Society is in a shambles, with poverty rampant. In the shadows of the Networks, untold millions live on the streets with only a TV to their names, and many can only make their living by selling dead bodies on the organ transplant black market. The one ray of hope is Edison Carter, investigative reporter for Network 23. Edison covers the stories that matter, and he is the voice of the people who have no other. Edison, of course, winds up on the wrong side of some very bad men who try their best to have him killed. An attempt to find out what he knows by reading his brain with a computer inadvertently creates a stuttering, manic computer simulation of Edison that calls itself Max.
While Blank Reg publicly fights for his freedom and his life for a crime he didn't commit, Theora recruits Bryce to help track down the real culprits. But does Bryce know more about the advanced tech crime than he's willing to admit?
An old flame of Edison's who has become the leader of a controversial new age church desperately wants Max's technology to help the church fulfill its shallow promises of a computer-enhanced afterlife.
Grossberg wages a grim vendetta against Edison and Network 23 by taking firm control of their arch rival Network 66.
Following the death of an old colleague who was found literally drained of life, Edison races to expose the deadly process of recording and broadcasting dreams. But is the audience's own demand for the innovative new program too great to conquer?
Viewers are unable to tear their eyes away from a seemingly mindless new game show called "Whacketts." Meanwhile, Big-Time is finally on top of the ratings. But is Big-Time just a pawn in a much larger game of addiction?
Zik Zak comes up with a new promotional giveaway called the Neurostim bracelet which implants the perfect life into your imagination and gives you the drive to make it happen no matter what the cost.
Education becomes a crime when Blanks start pirating elite educational programming for poor children.
An old friend of Theora's goes to the lab to pick up her in vitro baby only to find out it's been kidnapped. Theora and Edison make it their personal mission to expose the truth behind the disappearances of other babies.
