    Did You Watch Knight Rider?

    I thought the main female character was a terrible actor with the guy who player Michael not far behind her in acting ability.

    The story was OK but I felt there are a lot better things on TV this year. I'd say Bionic Woman was slightly better than this and I didn't think Bionic Woman was very good.

          I didn't watch it. I felt the cheese oozing from the commercials.

          The fact that Val Kilmer has slumped so low to be the voice of KITT is disturbing. I guess his noted attitude probelm has finally tanked his carrer.

              My criticism could be shared by most of TV- needs more Hoff!!!

              Seriously, though I gave up after about 30 minutes. Came back in the second hour and lasted 10.

                It blew. The car is awesome, but anytime they moved away from the car it became physically painful to watch. The commercials gave a new low to the terms "whoring" and "complete sellout". I did find it ironic in the end that when the Hoff shows up (to reprise his role as Michael Knight) that the character became Michael Knight after having reconstructive plastic surgery to hide his identity, and now the Hoff has essentially done the same thing with his apparent addiction to cosmetic surgery. The "chick" character has some dreamy eyes, but those are probably contacts. Will Arnett as the voice of KITT works really well, and the car is really the only watchable piece of this show.

                Other than that, it was just plain awful.

                    Yeah,.. Agreed that whenever they moved away from the KITT Car it was very painful to watch. The Story line dragged a bit much for me. I think it was way too slow,.. & I was uninterested in all the characters developments,.. it was just way too boring unless the car was there. Kilmer didn't do a bad job voicing KITT,.. however it wasn't great either.

                    The highlights for me was the Re-mastered theme song, & The Hoff showing up at the end.

                      I didn't realize that the world was crying out for a Knight Rider update. Wasn't there closure with Knight Rider 2000?

                      I'm still waiting for the Riptide Reunion Movie. Bring back The Boz!

                          I missed it, but checked TIVO and they are replaying it in a few days (on Saturday, the 23rd). I scheduled it for the giggles.

                            The show was so-so...but I loved the new K.I.T.T., that black Shelby Mustang is wicked, I'd trade mine for that one in a second, lol.

                            Needless to say, I entered the sweepstakes to win that ride, lol.

                              I didn't even realize it was on. I was too busy watching old Simpsons episodes on DVD.
