It's just another speck of trivia that my brain insists on keeping track of.

Don't feel bad - I still don't know which one is Ben Affleck and which one is Matt Damon. And it doesn't bother me.

It aired during one of the times in my life when I was either too busy to watch network TV or just didn’t care. It was hard to avoid any knowledge of Max Headroom during that era, however.
