Re: Live Discussion - Fly By Knight
Yeah, I have no problem with it as well. He's not his father. KITT could call him Michael when he was really frustrated though, that might be funny actually. My thoughts exactly. Actually, I'll take this a step further - I think that KI3T should be the only person who calls him Michael, while every...

Re: Knight Rider Valentines
That's not what I meant. I just can't imagine sending a supped up Mustang card at a girl and not getting slapped in the middle of a restaurant for show.

Re: Wheres turbo boost????
These aren't going to happen, unless someone starts paying for the show. The problem, see, is that the next frame from this: http://knightrideronline.com/forum/download/file.php?id=1290 is this: http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/9124/turbobusthx3.jpg We can all imagine how well that landing went.

Re: Just some speculation
A few points here: - Andron doesn't have the experience to be a showrunner. - GST was asked to do this (twice, mind you), because NBC "wanted a show people would watch". Of course, they sort of forgot you have to pay to do a show. - I don't know how much creative input Andron has in the ov...

Re: Ratings for "Fly By Knight"
Heh, look at that. Increase. Didn't expect that. Though I stand by my earlier position that at this point, ratings have little to do with our hopes for renewal.

Re: Knight Rider Lost Episodes!
You're probably talking about "The Scent of Roses", what's considered the actual finale to the series (before it got axed, anyway). The disks should have it in airing order (IIRC), which means it's the penultimate episode.

Pfft. Amateurs. Transformers fan here. I have an entire toyline dedicated to me and my fanboyism. Two, if we count reissues. And I'm 23 years old.
I'd definitely pick a KITT figure up.

Re: Most improved player: Zoe?
I think she gets a lot of undeserved bashing. She serves her purpose on the show and she's not really unlikeable. If they flesh out her scenes with Billy and their flirtatious bantering a little better (bartender, can I have mine with a little less sterotype, please!), she'll be just fine. I liked h...

Re: KITT's guns
It bugged me, though unlike before, it was less about KITT's basic programming and more about what point the show was trying to make. "Can we shoot something on the way?", asks the kid in the end of the episode. I'm not going to go into the usual rampage of "morally ambiguous" mo...

I can't remember for sure either, but without looking I believe it might have been after he unhooked himself from the tow truck and smoked the tires to start racing to Mike, perhaps That's where it was. But the nod wasn't really the music, it was the entire scene. It was an homage to the original K...

Re: Live Discussion - Fly By Knight
Don't even go in expecting decent ratings. In fact, at this point I don't think they even matter all that much, unless there is a tremendous and permanent change for the best. We have, what, three episodes left? If there isn't a significant drop from the norm, the only way we're getting a renewal is...

Re: Attack Mode Transformation
A spoiler was popping up out of thin air in Andron's concept. How is that more plausible than what we have now?
I personally like the alternate transformation more as well.

Re: The Hasselhoff Effect? NBC's future of KR
It's impossible to know what effect Hasselhoff would have in the show, should he be cast. Less older fans would despise it. His involvement would certainly provide incentive for more to tune in. But it's somewhat unlikely he will manage to keep those "intrigued" viewers by himself. In fact...

Re: Why was TKR disliked so much?
It was just a pretty bad show, hammered largely by '90s TV norms.
In retrospect, it's one of those "corny '90s shows that are so bad they're good", so I can't say I wouldn't sort of enjoy it, should I ran across it again.

How does someone getting away with insults qualify as "political correctness"? The message was posted merely two hours ago. I'm pretty sure this will be taken care of as soon as someone logs in.

Re: get rid of stupid transforming this isnt transformers
Under GST, KR was a medley of Transformers, Fast and Furious, and other things. In all fairness, the "transformations" angle was brought to the table long before Thompson got involved. In fact, most of us out there were making fun of it when the pilot was still in production. Having said ...

Yes, I aimlessly go around bashing people because it makes me feel good. Or, it could be that the man was hired to do a job the way he saw fit, and rather than honor the established continuity for the benefit of a coherent series he chose to ignore it and rewrite it his own way. Or, to be most accu...

I love how we can go around and bash people just for the kicks. The guy was hired to do a job his way and he did it. And he was very clear about it from the start.But that would mean we'd need some continuity from the backdoor pilot and Gary Scott Thompson's ego won't allow that.

Re: When NBC will tell us about sesoun 2???
The doc's right, there hasn't been an actual reboot. A reboot is a clean slate; you throw everything away and start fresh. Thompson used the term, falsely, when he first talked about this new direction, but it's not really a reboot. "Retool" is a better fitting term.
