Default anyone watch the new Knight Rider?

figured i'de see if i was the only one to watch it or not. wasn't half bad IMO. should have at least braught back the old one just to show. and would of been ten times better if they used a new Camaro instead, would have helped to sell it.
AND yes i did enter to win one of the four fords they had. hopefully it's the cobra, may put a couple thousand hard miles on it then sell it for some good spending cash on my car and home lol.

what, you missed the TPI intake and the shadowy figure of the trans am from the shot from the ceiling?





i'll continue to watch it, mostly because it certainly puts the new terminator show to shame

I wasn't impressed at all. The Edge kept up with the Cobra the whole time, even in the twisties. Other than that if it makes it into a show I might watch it when I get a chance.

I'd like it more without so many damn commercials.

This is one the only way I'm gonna watch it is off the DVR.

Was it an hour show in a 2 hour timeslot but with an hour worth of commercials?

I eventually turned it off....looks like cool tho. Chick was hot!!!

I noticed the TPI engine in the beginning of the show as well, I thought that was a nice little touch. I have to admit, the mustang doesn't look half bad but I still think they should have used the new Camaro. GM is already screwing up its chances at having the Camaro survive

This show totally sucked *** from beggining to end. The script writter has to be a total redneck idiot. The dialog was one a tellatubby level. Bunch of katchy one liners like a bad Joe Bob Briggs B- movie. The voice of KITT sucks, the car already had to be driven manually since KITT can't keep up with the bad guys edumacated abilities, 4cyl./6cyl. vehicles are running side by side with a GT500 KR, WTF!?, girl is average at best, she is sexually frustrated by a mutant sized, overskilled out the ninyang typical Bryan Spillner white boy who writters decided would be funny to give lines they came up with while smokin' hashis in a port o' potty, then there is the ending...car rolls backwards out of oh NO not just a simple black on black semi...a C130 as it leaves the tarmack...God I must feel like the Mustang owners did when Transformers came out. Entertainment meets used car dealership salesman...WE IS FUCKED!

It sucked IMO, nothing the same, I guess it wasn't intended to satisfy the old generation of Knight Rider viewers. Nothing like the old one.

and the car leaving the plane was because he was, I assume, being dropped off in some foreign country so's they could continue the show. (because you know, Mustangs of any color would never stand out in say... Dubai)
