I've just been watching 'The Final Verdict' on Bravo - and is it me, or can we see a whole lot more on widescreen than we were ever meant to ? When Michael drives into the semi, the missing side wall is obvious, not to mention the crew member sat with a copy of the script on their lap! (They try to inch over out of shot when Michael is backing out of the semi, but it doesn't make a lot of difference!) Also, the camera frame clipped to Kitt's door makes a guest appearance once or twice!
I never noticed this on my DVDs, so is it just watching on widescreen TV?

I thought Bravo (UK) had stopped showing the original KR sometime ago. As for watching it on
a widescreen TV, while the Bravo channel itself broadcast in widescreen, older stuff such as
the original KR would be in oldskool style 4:3. Are you watching KR in "stretchy-vision", or
has Bravo managed to somehow acquire widescreen copies of the original series?

I know it makes no sense, but it's the only reason I can come up with - I have never noticed the 'missing wall' in that episode before, and it's not exactly a 'blink and you'll miss it' blooper!
And yep, KR is back on Bravo! They must be cashing in

Have I missed something but SciFi was showing KR08 at for two hours today, Fiver was showing the pilot for KR08 and Bravo was continuing the original KR fest. I understand the last two, but I assumed (incorrectly) that as Fiver got the rights for KR08, SciFi would stop showing it.
Its abit of a KR fest at the moment in the UK!

We asked for Kr08 in the UK... We seem to have it...
I've just seen the pilot on Fiver. Ok, its not the first time but I liked the way it was written. If they could have reshot elements of the pilot to inclcude our much missed turbo boosts etc then it could have been even sweeter...
