Been gone a while...What's hapening to Knight Rider?

Post by SacValleyDweller » Tue Nov 25, 2008 2:16 am

:?: With enthusiasm for Heroes taking up Message-boarding time, then a virus striking during the time that I was supposed to have gotten my new laptop, and homework, I haven't been by lately. I've been watching all the eps (last two were great!) and now I see that this new Rosie O'Donnell show is taking KR's timeslot.

Has it been canceled? Are we in hiatus? When will we get new Eps?

Rumor has it the episode is godawful and with the bad press they've been getting, they hope to slip it through as quietly as possible and get audiences back for 10+11 and the reboot.

I know it was the second episode filmed and I know I've gone on and on about how it must be really horrible for them to push it back so much while shifting the airing order. But I didn't know it was officially a rumor now. :P

But yeah, that's what I've expected.
The new and again improved evil's advertisement is currently too long and too badass to display here. But let's just say that with now 50% more evil, this **** is great! :twisted: :skar:

By the way, if anyone is totaly lost now, we are talking about the last episode to air before the reboot.

If the episode is so horrible why air it at all? Throw it on the dvd as a bonus or something. I Seriously think the only reason why they extended this series a whole season is to have somehthing to sell on dvd next year. That way they can make back their investment from all us knight rider nutcases... lol I hope no one is offended by that statement.

Did they ever give a reason for the shuffling of episodes?

I don't know why they did.
Devon, I agree with you. If it was that bad, why not cut it totally, add it to the bonus features of the 1st Season dvd and tape a new and better one.
I think it was Glen Larson who said, during the commentary of Knight of the Phoenix, that instead of having subpar scenes he cut them and added the Steal KITT, of which I loved, scenes.

Well, they did shoot it, they must want to make some of that money back. It's an entire episode, not random scenes removed.

At the very least, they didn't pull a "Singer" (you know, the guy who spent ten million dollars on a Krypton scene that never made it in the movie or the DVD).
