1) Why do you keep calling the board kids?

2) That has been around a long time, what is sort of amusing is the fact that the person who wrote it, knows enough about Knight Rider to get some of the facts right, but is still too ignorant to get it all right.

3) If you email places like that, all they are going to do is slam harder.

4) Anybody who takes those things seriously, are obviously people that, well, we wouldn't want in our fandom anyway.

In the end, ya just need to move on, and ignore those who bash the show like that. The pure fact that they have nothing better to do in life but bash a 20 year old show is laughable in itself. Sad, true, and in the end, a whole lot better for your blood pressure to laugh it off, because well, we know the truth. And we don't get off on the things they do. Thank goodness.

At 32 years old I'm hardly a kid.

And I've seen stuff like that before. Just ignore them.
What's all this? It looks like Darth Vader's bathroom.

It's funny because it's true.

Aside from some of the sexual overtones in the article, a lot of the criticisms of the show are the same things we've been talking about lately. It's just written much more sarcastically. The website is dedicated to ripping apart pop culture- boy bands, Rubik's Cubes, and cheesey action shows. Don't be worried by the site, just laugh along with it.

Here's another pop culture site with a article about Knight Rider.
http://www.whatever-dude.com/posts/272.shtml

Also, on the site they talk about other Glen Larson shows.

Sorry If I ofended any one by calling them kidds...

Actualy I thought the whole KR thing was...

(a) Rather sick...

(2) Rather funny in a late night Connen O'Brian sort of way...

(Finaly) Well constructerd.

I was just looking around and thought it might be of some intrest to the board.

Would that be...well constructed?

If that is, then...no.

As for it being of interest to the board, yeah, it was, long ago, but you really are bringing attention to the very Knight Rider bashing that you didn't seem to like in your first post, by....bringing attention to the article.

What happened to Knightynight's post? He seemed to be agreeing with me. Don't tell me you're backing out now, KN!

Hey, Mike, how about you keep it on topic rather than a need to be called Mikey, and to be justified. In the case you haven't noticed, other people are agreeing with you too.

Keeping it on-topic:

I remeber the whatever-dude.com link talking about Knight Rider. I don't remember the site from bubblegun.com, so I don't think bringing it up is old news. I enjoyed reading the article (even if I had to roll my eyes at it a few times) so it was of interest to me and I think is of general interest to the board. Thank you TT Snim for sharing it.

As for Knightynight saying "right on Mikey!" or whatever he said, I have a pretty good sense of humor and was not offended in any way by it.

1) Mr. Moderator, you're supposed to take it to email, remember, unless you want all the dirty laundry aired on the board.

2) The bubblegun one was brought up last year, one of the many times you were on vacation. It started a fight.
