Razzy · 02-17-2008, 11:28 PM

I've got my HD DVR set to record it tonight. Hopefully it'll be half decent.

jw · 02-17-2008, 11:28 PM

thats right, thanks for the reminder

bumpylemon · 02-17-2008, 11:37 PM

is it supposed to be good?

monkyman · 02-17-2008, 11:40 PM

it's on @ 9pm eastern after the American gladiator final.

dustin410 · 02-17-2008, 11:42 PM

What channel?

GreenMotion · 02-17-2008, 11:50 PM

NBC I believe. Not sure what channel that is in your area. I have NBC in HD so I am hoping it will be in 1080 and not 720.

I was a big fan of the original knight rider; so I have no idea what to expect, other than a big change ofcourse. But hopefully it will be a good show. I wonder if the characters in this show are the same of the upcoming knight rider movie.

Im ready for it.

Who knows, maybe they can bring back Airwolf too

That would be awesome .. I think.

I loved Airwolf Seasons 1-3 .... But I hated the season in which String Fellow and Dominique got replaced by that chick and Dick van Dyke's kid. (forgot his name)

Similarly, I loved the original Battle Star Galactica, but not so much Battle Star Galactica 1980. (the show where the find earth and have those flying motor cycles)

They really need to lose the ad in the lower left corner.

I logged on to the forum to say the EXACT same thing!

And what's with the lesbian cop? Was that necessary?

Also, KITT as a Mustang just doesn't feel right. Not stealthy enough. Why not a ZR1 vette?

Blu-Beard · 02-18-2008, 01:17 AM

Thanks

GreenMotion · 02-18-2008, 01:36 AM

So far I am not too impressed. I knew this would be different from the original Knight Rider ... but it's almost as if they made too many changes. The car, including the voice, doesn't feel like a K.I.T.T.

Also, it's almost as if they are primarily trying to impress the audience with eye candy and not so much with a good script. Nice looking car; Nice opening scene on the beach with beautiful women; a pretty, lesbian cop ...

And what's up with the opening theme song? It's like they tried to preserve some of the old, but then completely tried changing it around. I would have liked to have a bit more of the old in it. (in my opinion the butchered it)

But then again, perhaps it takes getting used to?

BStecke · 02-18-2008, 01:38 AM

I'm kind of wondering when it's going to kick into high gear. I'm kinda digging Val Kilmer as the voice of KITT though. The double spoiler looks stupid. I agree a Corvette would have been more in the spirit of the original. Plus, the GT500 just looks like a fat pig.

GreenMotion · 02-18-2008, 01:43 AM

Val Kimer does the voice? wow, I had no idea.

AlexCruz · 02-18-2008, 01:44 AM

Okay stupid question time. Is it going to be a series (like a remake) or a straight to broadcast movie? It hasn't aired here yet so no spoilers por favor.

BStecke · 02-18-2008, 01:45 AM

From what I understand this is like a pilot movie for a new series.

I concur; this is what I thought it to be as well.

Wow, did you guys see how KITT jumped over that F15 fighter plane, bounced off the Apache Helicopter, then jumped the train, crossed underneath the Semi Truck and finally drove on two wheels right at the edge of the mountain road in the nervada desert? WOW!

:P~

Based on how it's going we'll be lucky if we see anything half that exciting.
