Nice catch. Maybe that's just the beginning of NBC's promotion campain. It's subtly starting to pop up all over the place. It's probably strategic.

Yeah, they'll certainly have more and more advertising as the date approaches, probably across all NBCU networks.

I still expect a Knight Rider marathon on Sci-Fi the weekend before the 17th unless for some reason Sci-Fi can't do it.
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:

For one brief second, when I read the title of this thread, I thought you were going to complain about NBC for some reason...nice job :)

I would expect the episode of American Gladiators with the Knight Rider cast would be airing in the coming weeks.

They put a little bug in showing a part of the two minute preview on the bottom of the screen when the Detroit auto show was on NBC.

Mu guess is, and it's really just an educated guess, that we'll see that pretty close to air date, like maybe the Monday before.

Weren't all the episodes of American Gladiators, minus the finale, already filmed?
