AFAIK, it was never up for people to view but I know it is out there if you know what I mean. NBC has no interest in putting it up since it really has no connection to the new series except for a few elements that the showrunner decided he would carry over.

Lexicon, you don't know what you're talking about. Please, for anyone who feels speculation holds more ground than actual fact, think about the possibility that someone on here knows.

NBC and HULU had the pilot online during the release of the first episode for the season. Like the first episodes, it has been taken off. Perhaps it will be posted online again on these websites, but as to when I'm not sure.

I was speaking in terms of having it up from a regular source so it could be viewed by anyone wanting to see it as that how I took your question. Sorry for the confusion of the fanboys. I know many of you take things literally. :lol: Anyway, NBC did remove it for the reasons I outlined here. GST did not want the telefilm to influence any potential new fans of his remade Knight Rider.

The older episodes won't be placed on NBC Direct or Hulu until a good length of time passes after the show goes off the air or NBC decides to allow it to drum up interest about a second season, if the show makes it that far. If NBC allowed Hulu to show the older episodes right now or put them up themselves on NBC Direct, it would make the iTunes and XBL/Microsoft Marketplace release of the show worthless which would lose them some revenue. It's called good business sense. The telefilm will probably not be seen again in any format except as a bonus in a DVD/Blu-Ray boxset if the show ever makes it to home video as GST and NBC do not want it to be considered part of the Knight Rider continuity that is being shown on TV.

Don't go posting it here. It's against the rules.
