Knight Rider 2008: The Thread

[KenK]

The Sherriff is ALWAYS evil!!! It never fails! A small town like that, he probably figures his pension is gonna be sh**!! Especially in this economy!

 

[BlackLantern]

I love how cordial KITT is...

"Hello, I am one of Michaels associates, you may call me KITT"

 

[wiegeabo]

And drill sergeant KITT was funny too. When he was about to call Mike a sack of-

And I always forget about KITT's 'eye' until I see it. Have you ever noticed that the circle where his speech pattern is displayed is always looking at the person he's talking to?

 

[Lord Blackbolt]

I'm actually liking the show now again. I think people that jumped ship should come back.

 

[KenK]

I'm at a point now where I would actually look forward to another season. Early on, I wouldn't have cared much if it got cancelled before the end of the first season. But they have improved, and I'm loving the direction it's going in now.

That is Absurd. there is no difference between how this show started and where it is now. Same fundamental flaws. How is this show still on the air?

 

[BlackLantern]

....because I won't stop watching it.....??

 

[Casius--J]

I like the direction this show has taken so far, much closer to the original format that was the old show.

I agree with Gold Samurai that its better that they are trying to get rid of stuff like it didnt exist. Although I never was a fan of the transformations either!

I hope this gets renewed for a second season and it continues the improvement!

 

[The Guardian]

Great episode tonight, I love this show, I hope it lasts a few more seasons, I loved the original and I like the direction it's taking!!! The dialog between Mike and KITT is much more natural now, I like what I'm seeing, here's hoping it continues!!!up:

Ditto.

In the beginning it felt very much like an episode of Las Vegas with a talking car, now it actually feels like knight rider.

 

[wiegeabo]

KITT's little smart ass attitude last night was cracking me up. What was it he said to Mike when he slammed on the brakes so Mike hit his head on the steering wheel?

"THAT, would be changing the subject, Michael."

I need an animated gif of that.

 

[Gold Samurai]

They even filmed at the Casino sets for the "Motecito" for the tv movie. Even Heroes went there.

[Dave McFly]

*bows down*

my work is done here then

 

[DarkSuperman]

You know what would be cool if some bad guy got a mustang version of car and used it to do all sorts of different crimes. That way Kitt and Mike could have a reoccurring nemesis.

 

[BlackLantern]

that's KARR....and he's been "destroyed"....

 

[TheVileOne]

KARR could always be rebuilt.

 

[KenK]

KARR could always be rebuilt.

Especially the government gets wind of the fact that the team is working independently, and decides they want to some revenge. KARR seems like a likely bloodhound. Mind you, they wouldn't have to look far, they're using the same facility!!! Really, if the show gets renewed, they need to find a new base of operations! Get a new air freighter!

 

[BlackLantern]

that's why I put the word in quotes...

 

[Casius--J]

Still loving the direction of this show, and i agree that the chemistry between Michael and Kitt is much improved since the start of the show!

 

[Lord Blackbolt]

has the ratings improved?

 

[wiegeabo]

http://knightrideronline.com/news/2009/02/ratings_and_updates_on_exit_light_enter_knight.php

This is the most current I could find.

Exit Light, Enter Knight, which was the first episode of the reboot (the bank robbery) had a 22% increase in viewership. The highest KR ratings in 8 episodes.


Here are the ratings for all the episodes up to Enter Knight:

The numbers still aren't great compared to other shows, but improving. And no show's numbers are ever great against American Idol.
