Is like i said, KR 2008 was truly the end of the televsion franchise that once dominated television when this piece of garbage came out, everything about was unbelievably bad on many scenes that it killed knight rider forever, it's such a sad shame that supporting actors bruce davison were wasted in that, he and val kilmer were legends and they knew better than wasting their times in this, davison was like michael caine in jaws the revenge, he hadn't seen it and probably never will.

In a way, Knight Rider has reached its futuristic vision. While we've yet to have ATM's in our car dashboards, so many other things have come to pass. Why, I just watched a video where some guy put a camera on a toy robot and let ChatGPT interact through it. If the thing had localized processing, it would be kind of like Kitt's early beta build. Carbon Nanotubes could be a pale, yet real variant to MBS. Some military vehicles have vertical takeoff, denoting that turbo boost jumps are just waiting for someone to R&D the jumping maneuver in a car. Current Chat bots remind me more of K.I.F.T. then the suave personality of KITT. But AI is only getting better by the passing day. Why, even our current day wrist watches can most likely do more things than Michael's watch could... outside of the electrocution mode. (For safety's sake.)
Unless the writers really found some new territory to explore, a new KR show right now would probably come off as a buddy-buddy cop show with a man (or woman) and his/her souped up Tesla. (And I hear those aren't so popular, right now.)
