Members Khan Posted Sunday at 03:44 PM Members Share Posted Sunday at 03:44 PM In a way, I think pitting “Knight Rider” against “Dallas” on Friday nights was smart counter-programming. On the one hand, I’m sure a lot of male viewers enjoyed watching Larry Hagman/J.R. But, on the other hand, there might’ve been just as many men out there who weren’t comfortable with watching a soap opera. For those viewers, therefore, KR was a perfect antidote. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Paul Raven Posted 21 hours ago Author Members Share Posted 21 hours ago @DRW50 Thank you. I only watched a few minutes but it seemed pretty basic. Pamela Brull was on DOOL a few years later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted 20 hours ago Members Share Posted 20 hours ago Looks like two other episodes are also on Youtube but I don't want to clog the thread. I didn't know that about Brull. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
