This website reviews TV shows about their content (sex, commercialism, etc) for families and this one for Knight Rider and they also have one for the current series.

I'm almost offended that they suggest classic fans would enjoy the show "Pimp My Ride". Oh well that just shows there credibility.

Even KITT, the fabulous vehicle with the digital dashboard and sleek lines that seemed so advanced then, now looks like something that belongs on a used-car lot.
What a jerk.
Most cars these days either look like rolling cardboard boxes or like someone has used an air pump to blown them up(too rounded).

My_Friend_KITT; I couldnt agree more ,this guy is a jerk and
obviously has never seen how people react to seeing KITT and Im talking the 80's KITT.
Im telling you that people remember that icon of the 80's and they make it clear that the Knight Industries 2000
is their favorite car.
At the Knight Rider Car Shows at Saugus Speedway,Trans Am Nationals, KITT is celebrated by everyone who see's
him and at the Knight Rider Festival we will see more of how much the public loves the original KITT.
Lets see if this so called new KITT has the same kind of longevity in twenty six years.

I liked this bit: "Kids...may plead with their parents to emulate the show's questionable traffic habits ... or at least to buy them toys that will let them pretend to do it themselves."

So, er... rather than talk to your children about what is right and wrong about driving on the public highway, or being firm about not spoiling them, just hide them away from everything cool and shiny so they don't ask.

Sheesh. We spend a reasonalbe amount of time with my daughter explaining that certain things are in fact rubbish and you can't have them just because they look nice. We also play with her and try to establish what's a nice thing to do and what's a bad thing to do. The guys at CSM make it seem as if everyone's children is being brought up by television alone!

Like I said in the other topic, CSM is another one of those groups run by "moralist" idiots much like the PTC.
