So, who here watched it? I enjoyed it. I think I'm in love with a car. A snarky car.

Did the Hoff use the car to drive-thru Wendy's?

Drunk Skunk · 02-17-2008, 08:54 PM

Wow, I can't believe it took me an hour to get that joke... I'm slipping.

New car sucks, new theme song sucks. Girls are ok.

Val Kilmer as KITT is even more stupid, where's Mr. Pheeny?

Theme started out ok, but petered out. Girls are ok, but did they have to throw in cute lesbians? Seems like they are trying too hard. Didn't know Kilmer was KITT. Seems decent enough if you can't get the original voice.

There's no reason they can't get the original voice, the original voice is the Principal from Boy Meets World. What's he doing these days?

The composer for this new show plain sucks, and everything being Ford is annoying. The Shelby Cobra Mustang is one ugly car. KITT should be sleek, not some bulbous faux-retro muscle car crap.

RW99 · 02-17-2008, 10:24 PM

Are SUVs as fast as Mustangs?

Sigh, guess this is the end of me watching this show.

Yeah sorry, didn't know who he was. All Ford really sucks and I would rather have that car from the movie poster, can't remember the make...

It was funny seeing the Hoff again, it's too bad the old KITT can't come back to kick the new KITT's tailpipe.

Since I'm a big fan of the original, I really didn't mind it. Pretty decent story though I wish they could have brought it out that he was Micheal Knight's son sooner, since I'm sure everyone already knew. As far as seeing the original KITT could they have brought it back with some explantion? Don't know. In the "Knight Rider 2000" movie the original KITT was destroyed.

Cute is certainly my preference.

Dan02 · 02-18-2008, 04:16 PM

you know I watched it last night and while it was far from a great program, I still found it mildly entertaining and will probably continue to watch them. Hey it can't be any worse then the second season of Heroes.

Thor · 02-18-2008, 04:27 PM

It wasn't too bad, I'll check it out again to see if it gets any better. I thought kilmers voice is perfect for the car, bringing back the original would have just been silly.

I've got Sarah Connor Chronicles and Jericho to keep me happy anyhow

Ugg, they are definitely trying too hard. After that risque suggested 3-way and that risque bit about the promiscuous lesbian cop I took a risk myself to change the channel and never come back. I'm not a prude (I'm all for group sex and fake lesbians simulating sex) but I don't need it crammed down my throat in some goofy crime drama that is trying to be edgy and succeeding in only being cheesy.

And what exactly is the demographic they are going for here? Knight Rider was a kid's show back in the day. If my mom/pop had seen The Hoff lying in the sack with a couple buxom babes in their underwear they would have changed the channel on me.

As for the voice of KITT, this new Val Kilmer actor has some nerve stealing the name of that old movie star Val Kilmer. It wasn't that long ago that he was a huge star. He was even Batman. It's not like we'll forget the name. Whatever happened to the movie star Val Kilmer, by the way?
