He did already Knight316. It was in the GST interview. Not good news for Vegas fans I'm afraid.
KRO: We saw the hotel from the casino in Vegas...
Gary Scott Thompson: Yup, you did. It doesn't exist any more though (laughs). It's been torn down.
KRO: Someone asked me to ask you if there were going to be any Las Vegas crossovers.
Gary Scott Thompson: Well Vegas was cancelled so I don't know. It got cancelled on a cliffhanger that said "to be continued" and I know that when I walk down to ben Silverman's office there's going to be more stacks of boxes of baby booties since all the fans are sending in booties to save Danny and Delinda's baby and he's been begging me to make them stop. And I'm like dude, I don't want to hear this, you're the one who cancelled the show. We're talking about boxes and boxes. A lot of people talked about it. One of the writers who was from Vegas said hey, we should have Danny and Delinda walk through and not say anything, with a baby in their arms and just walk through an episode. And kind of look at Mike and wink or something. But no, as of right now there's no plan for that (laughs). By the way, it wouldn't be a bad idea considering the amount of fans of Vegas, at least to pull them over (laughs).

Ya i remember that, but since then, TV Guide's Michael Ausiello did an interview with Ben Silverman and he had hinted that there was a possibility at an ending. So i'm just curious to know if GST has heard anything or if he thought maybe a TV movie or even Big Screen movie like SATC could be in the future for Vegas.

Well here's about the event on the 24th. It lists everyone who will be there. Looks good.

Tin Fish is a near by resturant in the Gas Lamp Quarter:

Where do you see the listing for Attack KITT - Friday isn't showing for me.. hm..
A bit of a bummer to movie it to Friday - specially for those just planing on going for the day. We'll have it up here for you though.

I’m bummed; I wonder if it’s worth it to come back for Friday, if it is outside do we not need tickets?

Well, I'm more concerned about whether I'll be able to get close enough to get a decent picture of the car- that might be something to consider.

Humm, true, but it's from 11 to 3, so you would think you’d be able to shuffle to the front in that time.

Hm...I was convinced that the Comic-Con reveal would indeed still be on the 24th and just that the NBC site wouldn't be revealing it until a day later. But maybe it will be a surprise on the 24th still?

well, they may still have clips on the new KITT- I'm just surprised that they're waiting a day to show the actual car.

I almost went to SDCC for work, but got out of it(when you work conventions, it is NO fun at all), but a big THANKS in advance to KRO and everyone going for giving us coverage of the panel.

Hmm, why did the name Michael Garvin pop into my head after seeing your name?? O_o
Anyway, if you guys get any time for interviews or anything with the powers that be I hope someone can relay some of my and I know a few others concern regarding the corporate aspect of the show and how far they're going to go with it when it comes to Ford and the car.
Yes, that's still my biggest issue with the TV movie as I could at least let some of the story/script failings slide due to budget issues and of course the writers strike but that just bugs the hell out of me. It'd be very easy to go overboard with it as I feel they did in the movie with how the car's exterior was shot. I still liked the Mike/KITT Ford commercials though. <_< >_>

Here's how it's going down for me.
- Tickets for Thursday/Friday - Purchased. (I'm so bummed for stalling too long on Saturday.)
- Time off from work - Finalized.
- Cash for event - Ready.
- Space on hybrid camera - 1/2 available. (That's something like 6 hours of footage space, we're talking about, here.)
Hope to bring back some great footage, in the process.

Well comic-con has Friday up, no mention of KR though. Perhaps because it is outside and thus free? It would mean less of a crowd for us if they don’t advertise it.

SDCC probably won't list the unveiling of the Attack KITT at the
Tin Fish restaurant because technically it's not being held by SDCC, it's being presented off the premises (for the most part) by Ford and NBCU.
I am sure they'll mention it during the panel though.

Good luck with that, PHOENIXZERO. I have an image in my head of Ford executives standing in the audience with their arms crossed grilling the crew when asked about Ford's involvement.

Well you guys already figured most of it out - but here is the official word.
The Attack KITT reveal will indeed be open to the public. And the footage that is shown on Thursday in the panel, will show clips from the new episodes - but no footage of Attack KITT. You'll have to be there both days to see it all in person (or check back here or on NBC.com shortly after)

I'll be there both days, but ironically, I'll have to wait till I get home to check out all the convention news I'm unable to pick up. My hotel is booked! Yay!

Well, don't do that. I may not have the answer you seek, but I do plan on at least having some footage to share. Else...there's always E-Bay and an armored car's worth of cash. :/
