Re: ki2t top speed at super pursuit mode

You've gotta love it, images from the actual show and its only plausable, what be acceptable I wonder? Oh well I'm still in the Matt is right on this one camp, he's provided evidence which is good supporting evidence to the debate (excluding weeezls made up, but still very amusing pics). Once the SP...

Re: ki2t top speed at super pursuit mode

I wouldn't call it bickering, I'd call it informed discussion.

Matt is showing screen shots, so i think he's ahead on points for now.

Re: after tuesday

The KR Movie needs two things 1) Money - and the success/failure of KR08 will impact on that big time, unless KR08 is seen basically sucessful nobody will invest. 2) A widely appealing script - It doesn't matter how much we fans want the movie for it to be a success it needs to appeal to the general...

Re: ki2t top speed at super pursuit mode

To be honest from what I've read, i'm of the opinion KI2Ts top speed is variable by who ever is holding the writers pen for the week. Back in the 80s show continuity was not a particularly important thing, it was the story at the time, and the show certainly didn't have us fans breathing down its ne...

Re: KI2T VS AIRWOLF

Don't think Solar Power cells work like that, even if they did Airwolf has this thing called hardening which protects against EMP quite common in vehicles that use Nuclear Weapons for obvious reasons. I'm also pretty sure if KITT actually got hit with a Nuclear Missile it wouldn't survive.

Re: KI2T VS AIRWOLF

Ok, you win if you completely disable Airwolf in everyway possible then KITT will win, and there was I thinking this would be a sensible conversation.

Re: KI2T VS AIRWOLF

I've seen episodes where both get refueled, its just easier to refuel a car than a helicopter. I would have thought we were allowed pilots/drivers or its a draw, KITT won't create damage without instructions from Michael unless its to defeneding Micheal/ an innocent and Airwolf won't fly on its own ...

I love the English language and its ability to change with time and to contradict itself. As the worlds most widely spoken language its fun to play with. I'm just glad Its my first language I've been told its a bugger to learn as a second one.

Re: An Interesting Development

I think its the nostaliga thing thats making people want KI2T and David back on the show, we all like to look back into the past an remember how it was and how good it was, unfortunately the brain tends to edit out the bad stuff. Yes KR08 needs to build on its basic premise 'One Man Can Make a Diffr...

Re: COULD THE SUCCESS OF ANOTHER SHOW SAVE KNIGHT RIDER?

Doubtful, the only thing that could definately save KR08 was better ratings when it was on TV!

We are going to have to pray for a miracle, and me been a atheist means I'm not hopeful.

Re: Knight 4000

I always thought KIFT sounded silly and as has already been said it got turned into KITT Mark II anyway.

I always preferred K.R.O. as a replacemnt for KITT, one it sounded better as an acronym and two K.R.O. and its driver made Micheal Knight seem even more special

Spreading our wings a little from the OP topic So which shows do we think inspired Knight Rider and which shows were inspired by it? The obvious inspiration is the Lone Ranger with a healty dash of Ian Flemmings James Bond. Inspired show I guess would the the other super-vehicle shows, Airwolf, Stre...

Well I've taken what Matthew has said to heart, and I'm going to drop the subject since I cannot seem to get on with VK.

Thankfully VK has put me on ignore there I can now safelly post my opinion without been jumped on.

Knight Rider teaches us respect is earned not demanded. When you do something to earn my respect you will have it.

Sorry I'd forgotten this was the Victor Kros is always right board rather than the Knight Rider board. The interview i'm thinking of with Glen Larson was made at back when the show was on air in a professional produced magazine, which has to be equally as valid an interview in your fan book, I just ...

I'm pretty sure I've read an interview where Glen says he has the red scanner on things just because he thinks it looks good, I have to agree with him.
