If you like Beyond 2000, you will love Beyond 3000.

And if you like beyond 3000, you will love beyond 4000 - ad nauseum.
The point was about virtual reality progression and not about the love of an old Australian documentary about life in the future (past)

We have come a long way in fashion since 1993.

What? You mean I need to stop wearing my lime green polyester leisure suit in public? What's up with that? 😮

At least I can still wear one on my avatar in VR, right? Or is that only okay in "historical" VR simulations? 😉

You are not forgetting the Stonehenge esk earrings are you?

Who here thinks the 1950's were the peak of American civilized culture?

Not to be a troll... But only to comment that, in a multi-faceted entity, each facet proceeds at varied pace, and indeed some facets deteriorate. While many things have advanced, yes, can one not help but to be nostalgic for the things that have dramatically declined.

And yes... I see the things that have declined and the things that are declining as threatening to the entire civilization.

It might be time to hang it up.

Seriously though... the host in this program was still living in the 80's with that wardrobe. A lot of great things came out of the 80's, but fashion wasn't one of them.

I used to watch the show back when it was called Towards 2000. It changed it's name in 85.

As far as I am aware, you cannot embed a video with a time offset, but you can provide a clickable link, like this:
