Knight Rider given a one-month reprieve....

Post by Omphalos »

....before the axe falls on this piece of shit.

Now Ill be perfectly frank here. I love watching this thing with my boy. We watched the pilot together and he yelled out loud "this is the coolest thing I have ever seen in my life!" Looking at that half-naked babe in the pilot, I agreed a bit. But the show is complete shit otherwise. It was one tired cliche after the other, and never became anything but a sorry copy of other crappy shows. But, someone at NBC may have some hope, because they have ordered four more scripts.

I don't even give it that long.

I don't even like the fucking car.

Didn't see anything more than the ads for it while home, but my impression was, if you've seen Transformers, why bother?

I didn't care for the original so I've never watched the new show.
They were destroyed because they lied pretentiously. Have no fear that my wrath
will fall upon you because of your innocent mistakes.

Your kids would probably love it, Freak. Nicky-boy was beside himself with glee, watching Kitt transform and talk.

I hope they get a chance to introduce K.I.T.T.'s evil twin, K.A.R.R., before it gets cancelled. They have already introduced Michael Knight's amnesia, and the possibility of his evil twin already.
