Re: GM to kill Pontiac on Monday
That's a really bad excuse right there, just because they sell well in china. Big friggin deal, so thats the reason they sell in another country so we have to put up with the geezer mobiles. If I ran GM right now I'd sell Buick to a chinese company, they can then enjoy them all they want then. Pont...

Re: Ten shows that deserve to return next fall but might not
Really, it doesn't matter what people say. The fact that shows like Kings and The Chopping Block(which replaced KR) were canceled after only a few short episodes is proof that KR is most likely going to be back. The show had a full season. Sure there were a few episodes cut from the order, but in re...

Re: NBC Affiliate in Boston refuses to air new 10pm Leno show
Actually Boomer, the affiliate not wanting to air the Leno show means more than diddly. This means that more and more people out there think that Leno in Prime Time is doomed to fail. I've always thought ever since it was announced that it would be a failure and I'm glad to see others believing it a...

Re: Ratings for "The Chopping Block" - KR's replacement
Just for the heck of it, the USA Network releasing their fall lineup on March 31st might be of some interest as well. I doubt it, but you never know.

Re: Ratings for "The Chopping Block" - KR's replacement
Wow, talk about a free fall. Idol is back on Wednesday and Chopping Block loses a big chunk of audience again. KR had more than double those ratings the last time it went up against Idol. Lemme get this straight, KR's episode order was cut short so NBC could be in last place below even cW and Univis...

Re: NBC's "Kings" bombs as well
I never thought all those people watch NBC ONLY for KR!!!! this is really amazing. so in other words, nothing that comes out of NBC's production worth watching, but KR changed this and attracted some people to watch NBC!!! http://forums.bradbarnett.net/images/smilies/KITTSMILIE-1.gif :kitt: Knight0...

Re: NBC's "Kings" bombs as well
From what I have seen of NBC as of late, I'd say Ms. Bromstad has done nothing good for the network at all and has actually made things worse. Sure, canceling KR would be something she may want to do, but you really have to think how much the top execs will put up with her decisions since they seem ...

Re: Ratings for "The Chopping Block" - KR's replacement
lets not forget that reality shows are cheaper to produce compared to what it would cost to produce a scripted series like knight rider, so a reality show with 5 million people could actually make money for nbc. This may be partially true, but in the end this is exactly why NBC sucks. They don't gi...

Re: Knight Rider might have been cancelled: two sources
Well there's no way to win with you guys. If they put KR in a friday/saturday night time slot you would be arguing that no one was watching it b/c those nights suck for tv. NBC puts it on a Wed. night slot and surprisingly does not move it at all during its entire run, thereby giving it a great opp...

Re: KR Cancelled???
They say Friday Night Lights may be saved by DirecTV pulling out their checkbook again. Is it possible that Ford may do the same for Knight Rider as well? I don't believe that this has been factored in, but I'm certain the sponsorship of Ford on the show brings in some big money for NBC. With the au...

Re: The sideways turbo boost
In the KARR episode, all Knight Research equipment was taken away including KITT. I'm assuming that since the government shut down Knight Research, they took the "logo" off KITT's underbelly as well. We have not seen a single Knight Research logo in the SSC or anywhere since that show. I'm...

Re: The sideways turbo boost
In all seriousness PHOENIXZERO, this is being observed way too carefully. It's a TV show. Knight Rider says to me to check my sense of realism at the door and enjoy the show for what it is. Action paced and fun. I just got involved in the discussion cause it wasn't bad, but now it's turning into a g...

Re: The sideways turbo boost
KI2T was never able to be used when the CPU was shut down. The entire car turned off. You couldn't drive it even. Never once did I see KI2T moving without the CPU except for the time the kid removed KITT from the car and took control by remote.

Re: The sideways turbo boost
NeoRanger, it's mainly because KITT can be driven without the CPU being active as we saw in the Pilot movie. If you had buttons when the CPU is inactive, they would be pointless. It more or less implies that things can only be done when KITT is active. Unlike the original KITT where the CPU controll...

Good to see the show getting support now that people have seen the retooled product. It's getting better reviews as the days go on. Sign the petition, do what you can to ensure a second season is a reality!

Re: Live Discussion - Fly By Knight
They didn't black out the Ford logo on the vehicle that Zoe drove. They didn't black out the logo on the truck either. My guess is they black out the logos on the bad guys vehicles cause they don't want the vehicles associated with the "bad guy killer" types. I was thinking about that when...

Like I put in the "Where's Turbo Boost?" thread, it's such a crappy system, for all we know 15 Million+ people could be tuning into Knight Rider weekly yet only a fraction of them have a Nielsen box. Not everyone worked 9-5 anymore. People do work nights like myself. So timeshift is the on...

Great points! I agree with what you say. It seems as if Knight Rider is a bit of a loose cannon right now. I certainly hope NBC doesn't give up on the show but the truth of the matter is we need more viewers and GST must think of a way to lure them. What that could be is yet to be seen... There is ...

I'm pretty sure I've mentioned this before but they don't need to use a Shelby GT500KR for the turbo boost stunt! That's plain insanity! What they need is a cheap, used Mustang and replace the frontend with a rubber fender like they did with Ki2t, that should work perfectly! Problem is, when it com...
