Robot Rock Hall of Fame: Max Headroom

AuthorAxel F Posted on DateWednesday, April 25, 2012 at 9:59AM in ,

As we prep for more jheri curl funk, champagne soul, lazer boogie, and now ROBOT ROCK this Saturday, let us recall our favorite '80s icons of machinery and artificial intelligence.

Max Headroom's not actually a robot, but he's a computer generated artificial intelligence entity, so that counts.

Who knew that this satirical electronic television host would predate an actual era of media oversaturation and talking television bobbleheads 25 years later? Mind blown. 

After getting his start on a British music video show, Max Headroom became a real '80s phenomenon with two seasons of his own show on American airwaves.

He even landed a cameo role on a tune by robot rock pioneers Art of Noise.
