These guys are doing us a huge favor by keeping the forum free and not loaded down with ads every which way, or pulling that "this sub-forum is only accessible for premium members" thing. I think they get full say in what people are posting. God knows I've pushed the envelope a lot this ye...

Re: New CHiPs movie, huh?

I guess Dax Shepherd and his wife are on it, and someone quipped "it is just as much about their marriage as it is about police work" or something to that degree.
Yeah, no.
If I wanted to watch relationships crap, I'd turn on Lifetime... and that's only after someone put a gun to my head.

Awesome. Do an anti-drug at in a back parking lot that looks like a place where you'd go to buy drugs.

Re: Knight Rider: The Fan Game

I wonder how many people went to college and were let down when they figured out that no one *offered* them drugs, as Reagan/DARE drilled into us. That stuff costs money, as Michael and Kitt finely demonstrate in the video.

ETA: Dammit, of course this goes on the next page so there's no context.

Re: Stuff you hate in KR

KR Original: How most of the heroines are cast to be stupid eye candy. I realize this is how a lot of the 80s shows (or, TV in general) were set up: the lead character has women falling for him left and right. But, I guess after some of the crap I've been through, I find it infuriating. KR2008 was j...

Re: Are some episodes missing scenes on the DVD/Blu-Ray?

To answer your question, without digging up any of the old threads, I think some of the cuts from the episodes are because they play copyrighted song clips, and it was easier just to cut the film footage than to contact the recording artist. I remember acutely in (I think!) Kitt vs Karr it was "...

Re: Knight Rider season 5

-Have Karr get dug out of the dirt, get stuck in an old farm truck and be forced to work his a** off and stop being manipulative; a little reverse psychology. AIs can learn; they should be able to un-learn/overwrite.

-I agree with the "Kitt in snow" thing.

Re: Looking for Knightimmortal story

"Clitoris" is not the word I would use. If you read the story, Karr also has a live sensor. The sensor can be used for pleasure (later) but also for reassurance, friendship, etc... You don't touch a woman's clitoris to reassure her, anymore than I'd smash your d*ck with a hammer to make yo...
