New NBC animated bug

Post by Michael Pajaro » Sun Feb 03, 2008 2:04 am

NBC now has an animated ticker promoting the new Knight Rider. Notice the nice use of the scanner light:

That's cool, now if only more people watched Las Vegas. :P
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! :twisted: :skar:

I do too. I noticed it on Friday. Can't say they're not promoting the hell out of this thing! I like it!

What's interesting about the bug is that the scanner goes back and forth like classic K.I.T.T.'s. I also noticed on the picture of the new poster that the light on the scanner was painted in such a way that it appears to go back and forth as well. Makes me wonder if they came up with some of these promotional graphics before the "pumping heart" technique was conceived.

They used the animated bug a lot during Law and Order last night. Just fast forwarding quickly through the episode I saw the bug 3 times, plus they did a 10 second promo right before the episode aired, and the Valet promo in the first commercial break.

Law & Order has been showing this new bug during the episode. They've added a KITT, a Ford logo and beefed up the scanner graphics.
