Yeah, even with the things that are bugging me such as certain design choices with the car's exterior/interior, Harald Belker certainly has rubbed me the wrong way and a bit of the business aspect that has me worried there's going to be a bit of overkill with pushing Ford's involvement, hopefully the final script wasn't in need of any major tweaks, but I think I'll let it slide if there's still a few bugs in it due to the situation, at least the casting looks good.

Nothing that really has me hating it or can't be fixed in the future, it's not like the original had everything down in the pilot. I've tried at most opportunities when there's the "haters" coming here and elsewhere to try and remain civil (but it does get hard, I could probably try harder) to the ignorance regarding the new potential series. I'm very much looking forward to the new TV movie and the potential of a new series that carries on the original Knight Rider legacy and hopefully doesn't turn into another Knight Rider 2000, but at least by the look of things, that's not going to happen thankfully. On the flip side, if after watching it (maybe twice) if there's something I disliked I'll certainly be vocal or uhh textual (O_o) about it. But at least I'll try to balance it out with what I did like. So far the actual previews do look good, I'm not too worried about another Knight Rider 2000. Hopefully Hasselhoff gave them the advice of disregarding it, I know he's not exactly a fan of it either.
Wow, I'm way off topic now....
To stay on topic I might as well do what I didn't want to, but I'm not going to go too far in, this is an edit and I only have a few minutes left!
This K.I.T.T. As far as we know IS NOT the original, Knight Industries Two-Thousand in any way. It's the Knight Industries Three-Thousand, when it comes to car choices there weren't a lot of fitting choices these days, they're not going to use an old car that's not being made anymore nor would a GM/Pontiac give them permission to use any version of the Trans-Am and from what I've read GM pretty much passed on it, Ford was interested and contributed. Try to take off your anti-Ford fanboy goggles for a bit and look at the big picture. Look around and read the topics where people were complaining about the use of the Mustang. The Mustang was the best option that fit the criteria and could be used since again, GM didn't want to. Pontiac grew to seemingly HATE the involvement even if they still supplied cars, they were all pretty much junkers.
