Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
Hey All!
So tomorrow is a big day for KRO. Not only are we attending the panel with 9 members of the cast and crew, but we are also doing something special. After the panel we will be having 1-on-1 interviews with Justin Bruening, Deanna Russo and Gary Scott Thompson!
So let us know by 11am Pacific Time, what you would like us to ask any member of the panel or Justin, Deanna or Gary specifically. Let us know who to address the question to.
Panel members are again: Gary Scott Thompson (The Fast and The Furious, Las Vegas); executive producer David Bartis (Heist, The OC); and the cast: Justin Bruening (Cold Case), Deanna Russo (NCIS), Sydney Tamiia Poitier (Veronica Mars), Paul Campbell (Battlestar Galactica), Yancey Arias (Kingpin), Bruce Davison (X-Men) and Smith Cho (Blades of Glory)
Just post your question in this thread, and please keep all discussion here to posting questions, and not necessarily discussing the questions, so we can keep the thread easy to digest before the panel.
We've already interviewed a lot of them, and all the recent interviews keep reasking many of the questions we've asked or heard already. We want to ask them questions that only the fans would care about, or something fresh that you've been wondering. (please keep it to knight rider only, we already bugged GST once about Las Vegas!)
We will be video taping the 1 on 1 interviews to post as exclusives on KRO - so you'll be able to hear and see them answer the questions! Should be very cool.

Re: Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
Well, I'm pretty sure these questions will be answered during the panel, but I'd like to ask the producers two things;
1)The new actors, what their roles will be, how big they'll be, and you KNOW someone's gonna bring up the whole "ONE man can make a difference" sort of thing.
2) since the producers are responsible for "The fast and the Furious" movies, and they've said there'll be elements of it in here, I'd like to know exactly HOW MUCH of this will revolve around "Racing plotlines", and what sort of plotlines we can expect.

Re: Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
"Do you have any messages for the Knight Rider Archive, who sadly couldn't be here today???"
Seriously, though, I'd like to know (in no particular order):
* Will there be any tips of the hat/homages to the original show?
* Will there be any story arcs in the new show that tie it in to the original mythology?
* Are we right in thinking that there will be a Mission Impossible style dynamic, with the team going out and fighting crime each week, or will it just be Michael and K.I.T.T.?
* Can we expect a "Knight" in the title every week?
* K.I.T.T. is a virtually indestructible car. Will there be any threats to K.I.T.T. in the form of other super-powered vehicles, for example new versions of K.A.R.R. or Goliath?
* As the show progresses, will they try to tie the show in with Classic KR with participation from TOS cast, for example Patricia McPherson, Peter Parros, Rebecca Holden and William Daniels?
* What sort of tone are they going for? Is it going to be lighthearted and fun, or will we get to see a darker kind of Knight Rider as the season goes on?
* Will each episode be a stand-alone, or will we be looking at multi-episode arcs? Will we have recurring badguys in this Knight Rider?
* Have the actors contributed any ideas of their own, either story- or character-wise?
* Will Mike's adventures be confined to the States, or will this be an international Knight Rider, as the pilot episode implied?
That's all for now, although I'm sure I'll think of more throughout the day!

Re: Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
See if you can get a more definitive answer out of him on David Hasselhoff's involvement. Even if it was only once or twice a season. I think its just wrong to leave him out completely.

Re: Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
Did any of them watch the original KR recently for research/fun?
Do they ever go on the fan sites to read our comments/suggestions?
Are there any plans for new KR merchandise?

Re: Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
The most important questions I have is:
1. Will we get to see the KI2T one more time in some way? Other then in parts scattered around. MK passed the reins to his son, but we all want KITT to do the same.
2. An explanation of what happened to KITT and FLAG?

Re: Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
I think the most important question is:
1 - What was the fate of the original KITT and Michael Knight. We know Michael Knight is alive and well, but where IS KITT really?
2 - Linking on from the first question, what were the other Trans-Ams in Graiman's garage? Will we ever find out.
3 - I've read that they have watched the entire 1st Season of Knight Rider, but don't they think they should watch the other 3 too so that they are fully aware of all the events that originally happened.

Re: Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
Here is a few questions I would like answered: (Similar to others on the original KITT and MK)
1. What happened to KI2T exactly?, the car's in the garage?, does the new KITT have the old KITT buried in the motherboard as stated in an interview? Also will they try to bring back William Daniels for an episode maybe as a reprising role of KI2T? (This comes from the interview I read somewhere they were trying to bring him back)
2. Michael Knight, what exactly happened to him and will they try to reprise his role or completely shun this idea?
3. Will they focus on the plot of "One Man Can Make a Difference" and not a stupid team.
4. Will they try and talk about or pay homeage to Devon Miles or Wilton Knight because they were the ones who started and Devon kept this alive!
5. Will they try to bring back not only William Daniels but maybe Patricia McPherson (for ex an episode where they need her help badly to fix KITT or something) or any other original cast or villans?
Neil if you read this please make sure for the sake of us who really miss KI2T and MK to make sure these points are hit because from what I see they don't want much of the original aspected.

Re: Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
To elaborate on Judd's question
-KR fans would LOVE some more merchandise. Their are a lot of comic companies doing great licensed comics right now(even for fellow NBC show Chuck). Any possibilities for comic books or toys based on the new or classic Knight Rider show?

Re: Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
Back when the Pilot was being produced we heard rumblings that if it was to go to series there would be a new artist doing their take on the Theme every week. Is that still the Plan? If so who are some of the artists we can expect and If not are they going to be using the same theme from the Movie ro doing something completely different?

Re: Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
Is the reason they're doing the panel before the new Attack KITT is revealed is because they're (NBC/GST) afraid of the reaction?
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!

Any cameo's of old cast members?
What is with the "KITT CAVE"? http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/07/22/forge ... s-tca-rep/
Any new technology to bring back cars like KARR and Goliath?

Re: Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
I'd like if you could ask Justin about his "driver's training" that he did during the summer in preparation for getting behind the wheel of KITT again and how much stunt driving does he do for the show himself.
Watching KITT turbo boost since 1982.

Re: Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
The only questions I would have is has their been any connection between this series to the old series such as returning villians?
Will their be a Karr in this version of the series?
Any hint as to weather Michael Knight's character would return?

Re: Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
Having seen that Mike Traceur has taken on the mantle of his fathers name, it would appear that, in essence, you're setting up the possibility of the Michael Knight name being handed down from generation to generation, essentially turning it into a legend that will forever tell the tale of Michael Knight and his talking car. I find this aspect to be quiet fascinating, not only in the here and now, but also in terms of the future, and I'm wondering if you have any thoughts on this?

Re: Knight Rider at Comic Con: What should we ask?
Is it too late for a question? In case not here's one:
If they bring back KARR or do an evil KARR-type car, will they consider having Peter Cullen do the voice? It would I think make things even neater because he did the original KARR!
