Hmmm? Well his AI Unit/CPU/Brain was still working at the end of KITT vs KARR so there's still an opening for him to explode again.

Do you think he'll get to say:
"I am the prototype of the Auto-cybernetic Roving Robot-exoskeleton of the future!"
?

Continuity is on holiday. He may not return in time for the episode, he's certainly not going to be back in time for the movie.
I was disappointed to see the images of KARR and the rather bizarre remodelled acronym.
Dr. Graiman: Hmm, I need to build a new prototype for my new KITT. I know, I'll call him KARR. I mean: what are the chances of THAT happening twice?
Dr. Graiman some time later: Aw, dang!

Ki3t and Ki2t are both based on the SAME AI system, just that Ki2t is an older model.
The essentials of HOW the processor works have not changed (much like in real life PC technology, its only that we're able to make things faster now but electronic principles still remain in terms memory and how its accessed etc).
KARR is STILL the prototype for both of these AI units.
If KARR thought Ki2t was "an inferior production line model" what will he make of Ki3t...?

I didn't know where to post this so here looks good...
I was under the impression that there will be only one car involved in the KARR(e) episode. I believe that they will have an intruder place a portable storage device (like a Blackberry) onto KITT's hood and download KARR(e) into KITT. It may be someting like the Killer K.I.T.T. episode of TOS. KARR will kill Dr. Graiman first and then the rest.
All those splendidly done pics in KOTLD are just back story to build up anticpation. We may not have any action scenes at all.
I hope I'm wrong on this...

From what little is available about the episode you are correct. There is no confirmed KITT VS KARR showdown. That would probably drain the budget for several episodes, at least if they planned on using the robotic form of KARR for a significant amount of time. I suspect we will see KARR reactivated in the backup neural network that is connected to the KITT Cave mainframe before almost getting transferred to KITT when Mike saves the day.

yeah, probably won't be KITT vs KARR, only KITT or KARR.......that's the only real way to take any excitement out of the show and make it a cheap remade version of TOS.

Oh how I would love a Mustang GT500KR car chase scene. The KITT and KARR chase scenes were one of the best scenes in TOS.

What if KARR is stopped from taking full control of KITT, but his A.I. is now some kind of virus like software, maybe similar to SKYNET. Could allow for him to escape and hide and be used maybe at a later date etc, if handled right this could be something that could be used again and again, although if not handled right it could alienate soem of the TOS fans and look a lil stupid, not just for my lil idea but the whole KITT & KARR kind of storyline.
Also agree, A sweet Mustang chase scene would look kick ass!!!!

The only thing is -- they had way more Trans Ams in TOS to use than they do Mustangs for KR08. Not sure if they have enough cars to stage a really good chase between 2 of them.

they haven't even had a relatively-decent chase scene with 1 Mustang yet, why would we expect 2 of them in a chase scene?
