Challenger Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 The commercials for night rider are even dumber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrumpetRhapsody Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 I thought the mustang one was pretty funny. Cops giving a thumbs up, yeah right, heh. Show is good so far. I was a little disappointed with the intro music. Doesn't quite use enough of the original theme. KITT's voice isn't quite right either. Not sassy enough, not british enough.

Kennysgreen280zt Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Yeah, Im not watching it for another few hours still, however from the preview I thought the car voice wasnt 'nerdy enough' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrumpetRhapsody Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 It wasn't perfect, but I liked it. It could go places... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tombarace14 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 As a prev. Knight Rider fan, I'll watch it. I thought it was decent, although I saw a wheel change on KITT in the collage campus scene. But in all I liked it. One other thing I dont like is the all the Ford prouduct placement.

Hybrid240z Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Watching it right now. Story doesn't look too strong but will probably watch it anyways as I was a big fan of Knight Rider back in the days. The voice of the new KITT is Val Kilmer.

MJLamberson Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 is there any place online to watch this? it will give me something to do at work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S30TRBO Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 I saw a wheel change on KITT in the collage campus scene. But in all I liked it. One other thing I dont like is the all the Ford prouduct placement. Tom, I noticed that too. When she got in KITT it went from an aftermarket SVT wheel to a stock 6 cylinder wheel. Did you see it when the thugs were riding in the Chevy Tahoe/Escalade the grill was an aftermarket one with no Chevy emblem same goes for the rear no badges. Don't forget to register for your change to win a LE GT500KR, Edge, Focus of Fusion http://www.nbc.com/Knight_Rider/Ford/sweepstakes/open.shtml I did what the hell....

woldson Posted February 18, 2008 Author Share Posted February 18, 2008 Well fell asleep halfway through it, my wife did not know so she had to endure it,,,heehee. It has potential, acting was very stiff. The advertising was a little over the top, but the car was cool, I'am not a ford fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psdenno Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 I have a feeling that no one should get too attached to this show. I can't see it going too many episodes before getting yanked off the air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazeum Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 I think they lost the soul of the original show. The voice of KITT is lame, it's not the voice itself but more what Kitt is saying. I'm not sure the Mustang fits as a Super Car. Being european, I do not see the Pontiac as a regular car I could see 10 times a day. They're only Ford products on the road. It looks like a giant 2 hours Ford commercial with Ford commercials breaks. It's full of clichés: bad guy who likes to make people suffer, just by looking at faces, you know if characters are good guys or bad guys. The morphing (technically ok) is stupid. The airflow around the car when it's going at >200mph is ridiculous and the story about the gas consumption made me laugh (which is already good ). The original show was like this also and I liked it. Maybe I'm just getting old ( ) but the show is not for me anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BWRex Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 I think the guys at GM are laughing their arses off for when the show bombs and not giving liscencing for one of their vehicles.I was a fan back in the day,but they lost all cred for the choice of the Rustang over the Firechicken.

Hybrid240z Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 I think a big reason the 2-hour premier was not too great was because they were building character profiles and the story of the show. I am waiting for the regular 1-hour shows to see if the show is good. The show does look a little cheesy but the original one was too...LOL I am not a big fan of Fords but this new Shelby sounds badass and look decent.
