| "Max Headroom" (1987) | Amanda Pays ep #1.9, "Grossberg's Return" "At about the halfway point in the episode the character's boss enters the TV news control room where Pays' character works. She is sitting in front of a couple of computer and video monitors in the dimly lit control room which seems somewhat hazy or smokey. Pays is smoking an all white cigarette (about a quartersmoked) and watching the monitors. The boss sits down and they have a discussion during which Pays taps ash into an ashtray and takes two very IRL looking drags. She exhales noisily but almost no smoke is visible. As she is about to take a third drag (in a closer shot) the boss asks if she is OK. 'Why?' she asks. 'Because you don't smoke.' he replies. She pauses before the cigarette reaches her lips, looking a little sheepish. Cut to next scene." | |
| "Max Headroom" (1987) | Concetta Tomei "Plays a secondary character in several episodes. Smokes in nearly every appearance and almost always an all white in a long-ish white holder. A couple match light-ups and several dangles with the holder. No noteworthy exhales so far, I'm up to episode five. Worth a rental for holder fans."
