Yes, there was a list. It was drawn up by TV "analysts" and "specialists" and they were giving their "scoop" of shows that were going to be axed this year.DavidT wrote:I'm just saying what I read.

From what they've told us so far, with a warning for spoilers, because in the next few episodes the CSS will be disbanded KITT will no longer be able to use his Transformation feature as much as he has so far. And the team will break off from the NSA, because they were behind Mike's Mindwipe and the progress of KARR, the team will be a small group from episode 13 onward. Mike and KITT will be roaming the roads and concentrate on more domestic troubles against people and companies who thing that they are above the law.Hans wrote:I think this is a great nod to the original series, and to us Peter Cullen fans of course, a very nice touch from the producers.
As for the show itself, I agree it's a bit hard to swallow that KITT is a Ford now (I'm a big Trans Am fan myself, some nice clean lines in that design... but sadly they're no longer making them), I especially don't like the fact that they make it so very clear that it's a Ford by showing the emblems and such. The original car was only referred to as a "black T-Top", all the Firebird decals were removed.
And then there's the computer effects and "transformation sequences"... which are completely unrealistic. But I have to admit that the show is a bit of a guilty pleasure, it's pretty much what the original was, which I enjoy(ed). So I do like it, I do watch it, and having Peter Cullen in it is a very nice bonus
I'm curious about the reboot, btw. Hope it really makes the show better.
Knight Rider has been promoting them alot lately with competitions and commercials (on NBC), so it might persuade Ford to do just that.Hans wrote:I prefer the "turbo boosts" (the car jumping a big distance) to the transformation sequences for sure... there was one turbo boost in the pilot episode, but it was done with CGI, and didn't look nearly as good as the jumps in the original series (which is weird, since that's more than 20 years old). I don't know if the show will return, it doesn't seem likely... I saw what the producer said, but Fox executives are going to make a decision after they've seen the early ratings of the reboot/revamped episodes... and if the numbers stay the way they are now, the show's simply too expensive to keep around.
But if it does return, I hope Ford will make some jumpcars for the show. Pontiac did for the original, a jump car was simply a steel frame with an engine and some plastic body panels on it, and they managed to squeeze about 8 or 9 jumps out of a single car. I really hope they can bring that back, it was always a high point of every episode of the original series
