Remote - New Knight Rider Commerical

Post by neps » Sun Feb 10, 2008 7:26 pm

NBC is going to kill me with all these commercials, I'm exhausted!

This aired during Skiing this afternoon. Thanks to justinbrueningnet for the alert

They do a funny take on Remote Control systems. It also sounds like yet another version of our familiar theme song.

BTW - this was on the HD channel but it was an SD show - so I don't have the full HD version, but I have a larger size I'll post a bit later.

Oh man that was good!! Can't wait to see how KITT will properly morph in the show, and man if this is any indication of the humour... then the wait for it to hit Blighty is going to be ever-more excrutiating!!

Neil you are a true dedicated fan and I salute you.

:lol: That was funny. I wonder if his calling Mike, Michael is an indication that KITT will do that when annoyed, similar to how parents call their kids by their full name when mad.
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:

HOPE that isn't how the shapeshifting to Attack Mode is rendered.

Oh god! Brilliant!! :lol: :lol: :lol: I can't contain it anymore! If anybody wants to front some money to get me to the States for a few hours before flying back home again, please, feel free! I'm just getting this giddy feeling that this is gonna feel just like discovering Knight Rider for the first time all those years ago :D ...especially in the nineties when it was repeated over here for the first time, when I was old enough to appreciate the humour etc.

And in response to d_osborn, of course it's not! It's just a silly commercial put together for a laugh to raise awareness, that's all lololol!!

I thought it was a little over the top, almost tacky. Just my opinion though.
KNIGHT RIDER RELOADED is a series of movies on Youtube to represent a different creative avenue to the Knight Rider we knew in 2008-09.

Very Funny! I wonder if that is Val Kilmer's voice? So much confusion with all these damn voiceovers on the commercials and such, am I right? :x

Reminds me of that Mountain Dew commercial they had here in the States last year.

Sure it was only a year ago? Wasn't there another one where the friend was turned into a girl? O_o

That one was kind of messed up...

Yep, that is a funny commercial.
So... Mike's real name is Michael? His mother named him after is father? It's kinda cool then to have everybode call him Mike (except for KITT when he's annoyed ;)), so that the similarity between him and Michael Knight isn't too big.
