Knight Rider Discussion Thread

7.3 Million viewers is a "miserable" rating. That's a bigger following then Friday Night Lights (6 million) and isn't too far off from the big hit's The Office and Heroe's (9 million). That's like three times the size of AMC's following.

This was on here in Aust last night and I enjoyed it.

My Brother in law had a black dog back then and he named it Kitt.

Thanks for posting that.

I'm glad the ratings were that good and not miserable like someone mentioned. I really really want this show to make it, so I hope it will step up sooner rather then later.

Compared to the ratings of the pilot-movie, yeah, those ratings sucked. However, we will see this week how KR will be doing.

[Skin]

Well everything is down. We'll see how this fairs tonight.

The Office isn't considered a "big hit" yet but more a show with a loyal viewership--I thought.

I watched it tonight, liked it more then I thought I would. I think some of the casting is a little off though(not talking about JB, he's actually pretty good).

[Skin]

The show gets soo much airtime that it's hard to buy that. I think NBC considers it very important.

[Sylph]

This show got a full season pick-up. Check The Hollywood Reporter.

The pilot was good but the past episodes were pure crap. Whoever decide to add on all these extra people is ruining the show because the Japanese girl and the other two guys aren't needed... at all.

Side note: I thought Sidney Poiter's character was suppose to be Michael's love interest. They hinted at it in the pilot and then it was immediately dropped. Too bad because there's no chemistry between he and his current love interest.

Is this show still on the air? If not it should be canceled.

[Skin]

I'm waiting (and hoping) for JB to give his wife a job on this show.

It looks like the show is being cancelled afterall and will end in Feb. It's a shame. If they would have kept the premise close to the pilot and got recast that girl, it might have worked.

[Money]

Yeah, they should have kept the show with the original premise and I'm almost positive it would have worked. They have bloated characters that are totally unnecessary. The new version of Knight Rider is nothing more than a poor man's Transformers. Such a shame.

If isn't broke, don't mess with it! Ugh. This show had ALOT of potential, but they had to muck it up
