Meet the new KITT, a Shelby GT500KR Mustang

Two Hour Movie Event Sunday, February 17th
KNIGHT RIDER

Executive Producer Doug Liman ('The Bourne Identity' Franchise and 'Mr. & Mrs. Smith') and Executive Producer David Bartis ('The O.C' and NBC's 'Heist') have joined together to bring back the 1980's television classic "Knight Rider." The two-hour movie event brings KITT and a talented cast of young and seasoned actors into the 21st century with speed, drama, love and triumph. David Hasselhoff as a special guest star returns as Michael Knight.

I actually like the old KITT better. This new one is rather Thunderdome-ish.

why did they change the car??? it wanst a stang before... hate it when people change that the original... like bumble be.. a camaro... um.. HE A VW BETTLE!!!! or how spiderman is not the same as the comic... those web are from a cartage that he makes and has to refill.. ( he gets beat up and lot of trouble from it running out in the comic)

Hopefully it will be better than their first attempt at a sequel:


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knight_rider_2000











or their second...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knight_Rider_2010
rofl.




IMHO, here's the car they should have used:








on an aside... I hadn't heard anything about this until i heard the bass beat during the comercial with the shelby covered by a tarp. I looked up and saw the lights going back and forth and said, "Hey look, they're going to try to bring out a new knight rider." She told me i was a geek and she couldn't believe i recognized that music as being from knight rider, a show cancelled how many decades ago?

Now, am i wrong, or is that theme music engrained in your subconscious like the themes from star wars, Jaws, the A team, and Indiana Jones. Aren't there some scores that you just don't forget?

Probably...it's too dark, and I'm not looking outside to see if it snowed more.

Meh.

When it comes to songs about animals, sometimes simpler is better.
