Re: Lost of Episodes of KR'08

I know that at least outlines for the eps 18-22 were written. I don't believe they had gotten to script stage, before the show went on hiatus.

Other than that, as Phoenixzero said, everything that has been shot will end up on screen (unless they pull the plug early).

Promos for Tonight's Episode?

I was wondering if anyone has seen, or might have recorded, any promos for tonight's episode.

Re: Day Turns Into Knight: Episode 11 Officially

Here's some 'inside baseball' stuff on this episode; Graham Yost, who wrote Speed , also gave Dave Andron his first break as a staff writer on Raines in 2006. Andron pays tribute to Yost in two ways in this week's episode, which Andron wrote; the Speed-like plot device, and, if you look carefully, y...

Re: Justin Bruening on Chelsea Lately

I actually thought it was a pretty good interview. She wasn't too snarky and seemed to like him; I didn't get the sarcastic vibe at all. And he handled himself well. AS far as the second season; that, I'm afraid, is not true AT THIS TIME. If KR pulls off a miracle against American Idol, then we'll s...

Re: Desripition on on buddy tv for tonight's KR.

They've actually been pretty supportive of the series, all in all. It surprised me that they didn't get this casting thing right, although it kinda looks like they're working off of NBC info... But, I'm as sure as I can be that my information is correct, and we'll be seeing "A", not "...

Re: Ratings for "Knight Fever"

I don't think these numbers mean too much. Next week will be a more important barometer. And, it will be very interesting to see if NBC promotes the show during football this week-end.

Re: Where are the KR08 commercials?

I don't think they're doing any promotion for this episode--it's the last of the previous incarnation of the show, before the transition begins, and the episode itself had some problems. If they don't start promoting on Thursday, then I'd be a little concerned.

Re: How Could It Have Been? The David Andron KR Topic

The show would have had less T & A, certainly. I think KITT's evolution would have pretty much as it has been, as a learning AI. There would have been fewer characters of course, and less government-inspired missions; more in spirit like the original, and more, I gather, like the last few episod...

Re: Knight Rider on Blu-Ray?

I have a BR player myself with a few films and even I cannot see much difference between DVD and BR in terms of picture quality. I think it and HD itself is massively overrated. The only reason why I collect them is because of the audio quality which is a big difference. One needs a hi-def TV of at...

Re: New Knight Rider deleted scene

The powers that be at NBC, in their infinite wisdom, decided to cut that scene from episode 4, "A Hard Day's Knight." Apparently it would have cut into the T & A time too much. i believe there was another scene cut, and replaced with that beach scene at the end.

Remember, these episodes are the transitions to the new KR, so the terrorist-of-the-week aspects hasn't been abandoned yet.

Re: Did We As Fans Make This Bed?

You make a lot of interesting (and heartfelt) points, Phoenixzero. But I think that something that gets lost in all this is how these shows are put together. The producers are not interacting with the fans everyday. Perhaps they should, but they're not. They're interacting with the studio, network, ...

I agree with you, Mike. The writers aren't trying to "fool" anybody. They are trying to create the best TV show they can, with severe time, budget, and creative constraints. And, everyone borrows from everyone. It's the sincerest form of flattery. So, you have a situation where someone, le...

Re: Knight Rider break...?

As we speak, they are filming episode 16, and should wrap by the end of the week.

They will probably get one more in before the holiday break.

It doesn't look now like episode 10 will air on a Sunday after football. It will probably air in the usual Wed. slot. on Jan 7th.

Re: Question about Knight Fever...

It looks like they're going to throw away this episode, showing it on New Years Eve. The show IS going to change quite a bit after that, I can tell you that. Eps 10 and 11 will be the transitional episodes, and a lot is going to happen. It won't just be dropping some characters--the whole mission, a...

A couple of interesting points in talking to one of the producers... As you folks have pretty much figured out, not one frame was actually shot in Vegas. It's all on set, stock and borrowed footage from the pilot, and on location at the Morongo. The new Ford was a very closely guarded secret. So clo...

Re: Live Discussion Thread - Knight of the Zodiac

There seem to be several extracurricular items in tonite's episode. For one, because it's "Green Week" at NBC they had to have a sub plot regarding being energy efficient in the complex. Also, they are unveiling the 2010 Mustang tonite, as well. It will be interesting to see how they weave...

Re: Live Discussion Thread: I Wanna Rock & Roll All Knight

On a final note, why did they have to expect Rivai to move when she was on that trunk? Wouldn't a heat signature be enough to determine whether she was alive or not? The biggest eye-rolling moment for me (and there were several) was when she moved in the trunk and Torres claps his hands together an...
