KR featured on The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy

Post by kitt_rulz » Sat Nov 19, 2005 12:29 am

I just happened to be flipping though the channels and came upon an episode of "The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy" and saw a Scythe (the sword/knife the grim reaper carries) that looked alot like KITT. On the Knife part it had a red scanner going back and forth. On top of that the voice coming from the object sounded remarkably like William Daniels!! :o :o
Well I did some research and came up with these two links:

http://imdb.com/title/tt0292800/guests

http://www.templelooters.com/evil/eps5.htm

I'm not sure wether the imdb is reliable but it does say that Daniels did provide the voice for Scythe 2.0 (also the episode name). I looked and could not find a sound file nor a pic, but I did find out it is on again on the 25th of November at 4:30pm (EST) on Cartoon Network. If anyone can grab a pic or get sound file so it doesn't sound like I'm going crazy it would help. Or could say that they saw it too.

I hope I'm not going crazy!!!

No, you're not going crazy. It has been posted before and confirmed, although I'd still like to see a clip from it :)

Clips are buried in this post in a "Click Here" link within the post with screen grabs from the show. ;)

It's easy to do as it's kinda buried in the text. :) I thought the idea of Scythe 2.0 and a red scanner light with William Daniels' voice was definitely a KR referenece. Nice to see Mr. Daniels even agreed to do that one. :) I hope it means that if/when the KR movie comes out, he'll be doing KITT again.

"I'm fully automated, I lack compassion". It's like how KARR would have been with KITT's voice. And the way that the scanner turns on is identical to KITTs.

Yeah, it wouldn't be the same without him.
