Remember when we thought that beyond the year 2000 was so distant and it was all going to be like living in a Sci Fi movie? Now we have pandemics, anti vaxxers, moronic political leaders, and QAnon. Wish I could go back to the 80s now and tell them to enjoy what they have because it isn't going to get any better.

mmm no, it was a flashier reboot of an earlier Aussie version of Tomorrow's World. Australia made "Towards 2000", then this became the hugely successful commercial version "Beyond 2000" (worthy of a parody sketch, you know you've cracked the big time) and got exported and repackaged for US Discovery network. It had a couple of soft relaunches, changing networks then changing name as we got too close to the year 2000, "Beyond Tomorrow", making it past the turn of the millennium before being cancelled (and the internet, then KZitem, being a far better place to follow their topics). And by then it was a lower budget affair. I think Tomorrow's World ended up around the same time in 2003 yet closer to what they were aiming for, because you needed a non-commercial broadcaster to keep it alive after the "high tech" craze left the mainstream - it's never been as high as it was in the late 1980s, when Japanese tech was the main flavour and Japan was living in the future. Tomorrow's World survives as a brand where "Beyond" never did (except as Beyond Productions who were behind things you may have heard of, like Mythbusters, continuing to get hits with Discovery channel). Like I say, tech media is all in KZitem now, where it fits better and can survive on that funding indefinitely. BBC keeps Tomorrow's World as a brand that keeps a foot in the online space too, very much in the spirit of the old show being something they felt "needed" to be made.
