And yet after it found those 5mil they stayed tuned in, even up against those factors and then a certain reality show. Add in how well it's doing in foreign markets too and I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Also, shows that came on after have been announced as cancelled and our's hasn't.

...Aanndd... anyway... deep breath and back on topic: This is excellent news! I was in two minds weather KR08 was any good but after watching found it excellent! I am a massive fan of the show and are surprised they are trying to take it off air after just one season, thought they would of given it ...

@Mr Marcus: Again taking what's been said and twisting it to suit your own needs, 500,00 may be a drop in the ocean in the States but, hello, this isn't the States! It's all relative, and having KR as the #1 non-terrestrial programme is terrific! And these ratings are a record for Sci-Fi! You cannot...

Don't quote me on this (lol) but I think I remember reading somewhere that all digital boxes can be monitored for specific ratings. And since that's the only way to get Sci-Fi they should be pretty accurate. Not sure if those recorded on Sky Plus, freeview/Virgin/freesat recordable boxes will be tak...

Indeed, the European market for the original series has never waned with it getting consistantly good ratings whenever it was repeated and merchandise for it sells consistently well. International markets helped Star Trek Next Generation, Baywatch, 24 and continues to help Heroes so we'll see how th...

Now THIS is what I'm talking about! Sci-Fi's number one show is currently 'Medium' with about 150,000 viewers (remember this is a very niche channel) but Knight Rider trounced it with over half a million viewers! Not only is this a record since the premiere of 'Heroes' but it also made Knight Rider ...

The very fact you have to say "I told you so" is pathetic and I find it offensive. NBC haven't announced their Tuesday and Wednesday slots and HAVE said they've more to announce next week. You've attacked the show and those that enjoy it from day one. It's improved in leaps and bounds and ...

how dare you question other people's opinion of the show or ford's sponsorship!! I for one like the show a lot and like the transformations! The show wouldn't be on without Ford so if we get some promotion as a result I for one don't care! You've made your point now stop attacking those that have a ...

I'm not repeating a press release, I'm stating what Sci Fi Now magazine quoted as independent research and the promotional campaign aimed solely at Knight Rider, not their whole fall schedule. Plus, GST was the one who went on record in an interview with said magazine that stated NBC were the ones w...

Okay, firstly, stop blaming NBC. They spent millions promoting Knight Rider, people seem to forget they advertised the hell out of it pre-transmission and over the first few weeks but still it didn't bring in more than mediocre ratings. But they had faith in the concept and told GST to make it more ...

Actually, while it's good to see it advertised, it's a fraction of what NBC did in the build-up to transmission and over the first few weeks. They spent millions on advertising! It's not NBC's fault.

it wasnt about them saying things they couldnt deliver the problem was 1.they didnt promote it at all 3.i think the CGI did go over board and the K.A.R.R thing didnt help because they tried to change what knight rider was in closing its nbc falut for the low ratings not the show or the kr writers N...

All of the guides for next week's programmes (when KR begins) came out today, and out of the four main weekly TV magazine guides here in the UK, both TV Quick and TV Choice don't list the Sci-Fi channel and as such haven't offered up any news of the new KR series. Both TV Times and Radio Times did t...

"didn't spend millions more in the final five eps of a show that DIDN'T perform as planned" I meant. And obviously I meant GST in the final sentence LOL... Typing this on an iPod!

Ah but KR had the most successful pre-transmission advertising campaign ever! The fact it didn't get the ratings NBC wanted is because people saw the awful vision GST had for the show in those early eps! So I wish people would stop bloody going on about NO advertising! There was tons! But as the ser...

The Sky magazine also has a two-page spread on the show, featuring quotes from past interviews and a brief look at the series. The title is mentioned on the cover and there's a small picture on page three as well.

That's why I sent you a PM Hoffabe, explaining what's going on and asking you to join in

Well Hoffabe has just broken the rules and ruined the third screenshot question so it no longer counts, the one below will replace it as screenshot number three. I was hoping to surprise everyone playing by slipping in some from the spin-offs to challenge people but unfortunately the surprise is gon...

Looked over this 'Deanna Russo' Twitter account, and quite frankly it's a bit suspect anyway. Come on Deanna, if it's really you, post some pics only you could have. Greg Grunberg and Ashton Kutcher know what's up. Otherwise, just some poser that I'm not gonna believe anything they tweet. It's not ...

Nice find Alex! That house in particular always gives me the creeps, and the fact that it's so far out of the way even on Universal's backlot just adds to the scare factor. And Jaws! :D One of my all-time fave films and my fave TV show together - I cheered when I first saw that episode about 7 or 8 ...

Sorry Victor, I respect you a lot, I really do, but reading through those links it feels like a lot of personal opinion stated as fact. Or sometimes just a very determined attempt to discredit the new series. Of course this is just my take on these, my own personal opinion of them. But I can also se...

That's class! I had no idea and I've watched that film dozens of times!!

Deanna has just posted this as her latest update on Twitter Well can you tell when it was posted. I think that clears it up right there. When you say pull the plug now, it probally means cancelled. If you would have said pull the plug a few months ago, it could have been taken as reduced season etc...

I only know one off the top of my head so I'll not answer (but it's got something to do with Unripe Fruit )
