Exactly the reason why we need to mobilise our forum and get positive opinions out. I think the third review was kinda positive but that is debatable!

So we have all seen some of the negative reviews coming out in constant hate of KR08. One has even got a live blog hating on the show as its aired episode at a time! Some people seem to have too much time to hate. Even some of the slightly positive reviews have little hope for the show. So, what can...

Sweet, thanks for that Shapeshifter. Anything we can do to drum up support? I'm not even in the US, but keen to see this series succeed.

I would imagine that most of these online reviews have "comments" sections. If we made sure to collectively hit as many of those and accentuate the *positive* about the episodes, it might help people see a different POV. ....thats kinda what I was thinking. Theres already loads of links o...

I was about to post some more online reviews for the second episode but they AGAIN were mostly negative. I'm starting to get really annoyed at reading those reviews which seem to miss the point of KR08 completely.....or the original KR for that matter. A lot of it seems to be seeing the original ser...

WTF Mate?! That was one of the funniest lines in the whole episode!! You are the one showing disrespect. Plus Mike Long sooooooooooooo sounds like a porn name. ::mutters something about idiots:: lol, this show sounds more of a laugh each time I read this forum. Curse you UK broadcasters!!!! Sarfraz

This is really a gift from everyone at Knight Rider Online (everyone that participates in the forums collectively) to you guys as thanks for all your hard work and your kindness you have shown by supporting (or accepting) our insanities in these forums. Congrats on the first episode, and we look fo...

But for me, this show is absolutely one of the worst tv of the year, one of the worst I've ever seen. Wow. How many shows have you actually seen? And besides, if the show really is that bad, you can replace the Shelby with Jesus' car and it will still suck. Your point is moot. You understand me :go...

Would the success of the original series depended much on if KITT was a Camaro, Corvette or Trans AM? I don't think it would have been so significant. Similarly, I don't believe if the current car was any of the latest versions of the three mentioned car, that the show would be any different. Its in...

I'm starting to wonder how much of the ratings are down to the plastering of negative reviews everywhere? In our current age of the internet, word spreads pretty fast. Back when KR first aired, negative press wouldn't have had such an influence. What really annoys me is that Bones is beating Knight ...

I'm not sure about the press in the states but this scene has caught the attention of the UK tabloid: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/tv/article1734396.ece" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; To be fair, I think the reporter is taking it in the right amusing spirit....

Great idea. Anything to stop us poor lot in the UK and rest of the world spoiling KR08

It seems to me NBC is just as eager to have their show on in other countries as you all are to watch them. Perhaps you should all write your local channels that usually air NBC shows and ask them for it. I believe the decision is theirs and not NBCs. Canada’s E was able to get the show and show it ...

I'm personally using the same pic as Bluechaos from the jalopnik.com site. They have a few cool pics of KI3T there.

Silly question as I have never used Vista, but it looks alot like the Mac OSX?

Loved the purple interior of the top photo. :) The last photo would be more what I would expect of a very futuristic car but I liked the 2nd one - if they replaced the blue with yellow they'd have KARR! Well that purple dash made it to production. The whole new Fiesta colour range is abit "rad...

Didn't I hear somewhere that the aussies have the new KR series?

KR was a massive hit in the UK back in the 80's. I am surprised no one has snapped up the rights for the new series yet? what the heck is going? ITV, Sky, Virgin.....someone get your gears in motion!!!!!

Sarfraz

The top picture is from our European Ford Fiesta (sub-compact I guess to the USA?). Coincidentally I am a component engineer at Ford, UK and seen the new Fiesta first hand. The dash and instrumentation is pretty much what you see in that picture. I think the only thing that has changed alittle is th...

Just like to add, Knight Rider Online for me has been the only KR website that matters. That is thanks to Mike, Neil and the friendly moderators. The whole community in general is unlike others I have visited with a welcoming environment to old-timer such as myself back in the old days of Mikes TKR ...

I have no issue with you having your opinion. Your instigating by stating my naivety then somehow take the high-ground! do you expect people to act kindly, particular on the subject of taking Knight Rider as a serious show? In future, ignore any of my post. I have in the past done the same to you. S...

Naive?! Thanks for that compliment! I'll allow you your opinion as you should mine. I can't quite what I'm about to type but anyway, Knight Rider was never meant to be a serious show. Neither is it advanced story telling. Next to its peers of the time, the show is laughed about if considered to be a...

.....my memories very vague. I remember this dude, he had curly hair, wore a black leather jacket and drove around in black car with some flashing lights. Think it was a Corvette or something like that....can't quite remember the name of that show.


Sarfraz

Its just way too early to make a judgement on how the series will develop either. I recall watching the first episode of TKR and thinking it was really promising....how wrong was I !! The original poster is right. Stop nitpicking. Knight Rider is and never was a show to be taken seriously or truly a...

Yeah, I know I'm spoiling it for myself but I couldn't help reading published reviews. They seem generally negative though (spoiler warning!): http://io9.com/5051540/not-even-naked-cast-members-can-save-knight-rider-from-itself" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; http://screenra...
