i have a max headroom remix

[thearrah]

needed more st-st-st-st stuttering during the alphabet, but they probably thought it woulda confused kids

This ruined my childhood! Max Headroom terrified me as a toddler. Whenever he came on TV, I would run screaming and hide behind the couch. The last place I was expecting to see him was on Sesame Street, so when he popped up randomly stuttering the alphabet, I was traumatized and never watched Sesame Street again. Forget Katy Perry's cleavage, THIS is the moment that scarred children for life!

@Stroddler What? You're not thrilled that there's this easy way to tell us Yanks from you Brits and Canucks?

[MarkRadioTurner]

Jim Carey in the Mask? No wait, it's Max Headroom. . . Shame on you Jim Carey!

[KingLashiec]

@Kyraji To be fair, neither is there an E or I, whichever way a person chooses to spell out the American name.

[KingLashiec]

@Stroddler So just because American English is based off an older version of the language and developed differently from how British people speak and spell it, you're calling it butchered? How about Australians and their English?

I consider it just as much the English language as British or Australian English, and British/Australian English just as much the English language as American English. It's not like the language became like Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese.

@Kyraji I am saying that every other English-speaking country but the United States calls the last letter "zed": Britain, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, India, Pakistan, Caribbean countries, all the areas of the former British Empire. Matt Frewer is Canadian, so at that point his little hesitation is an inside joke.

[goldensolder44]

i think i might've seen that one

[h3lblad3]

He sounds so much like Jim Carrey to me...

[sickcartoons]

@h3lblad3 Jim sounds like him.

[nolab143691]

that would scare me to death

[Dracopol]

Matt Frewer is Canadian, and so you notice the vast effort of lip-stretching to say "zee". The non-American world all say "zed". He was having his little joke with us.

[BlueSoulJim]

yeah! i remember Max WAS on a Sesame Street segment!

[wattamack4]

Was this made from Stop-motion animation?

[vjzoo]

The Max Headroom character was actually actor Matt Frewer in latex prosthetics, it wasn't animated.

[RobTFirefly]

Great find!

[cjdunn]
