I was over at NBC and checking out the "Knight Writers" blog and someone asked "Who is Wilton Knight?" I realized there is a whole new generation that never seen the original and they enjoy this present show. Especially with the recent episode with KARR, the newbs probably never heard of KARR before except the mentioning of KARR in previous episodes. They probably didnt understand the FLAG statements.
I thought the CGI was excellent for KARR. I hate when people said the the KARR CGI was unrealistic especially during the masterkey chat when they were there. Lets see you build a 18 foot robot that transforms out of a mustang. That would cost MUCH MUCH MUCH more than making the CGI creation of KARR.
I know the battle was short for us "oldies" since we wanted more KARR, and wanted to know if there is a connection. the newbs wouldnt understand the connection if they never saw the original.
I dont think NBC made Knight Rider to be an award winner. Which i think award shows are stupid anyway.
We can always do the "Would of, could of, should of" statements to "improve" Knight Rider, but its hard to realize that this is the best version of Knight Rider we are getting now, its def. way better than Team Knight Rider back in the 90's.
We could blame GST, the writers, masterkeyfilms, etc... about the show. But they dont have the final say its NBC. GST said once, i believe, "I wanted a more darker scene about mike's past" then he said something like "NBC didnt want a dark show" I think GST is trying to do his best of what has been put in front of him.
In my opinion, i think Knight Rider has made some good leaps to improve this show since episode 1.
Its hard that NBC and Knight Rider go up against, "popular" shows that have been on for awhile, for example: Bones, American Idol, and some CBS shows.
Usually some shows 1st season arent really that good but if it gets a second season, the season could be better with the addition of more $$ into their budget.
We hear all the rumors that Knight Rider is cancelled, NBC wanted the reboot but GST didnt, etc...but after having the live video chat with Masterkeyfilms, they said most luckily Knight Rider wouldnt be evaluated till April or May if we dont hear anything from now till then

We cant compared this Knight Rider to the original Knight Rider because it has been 25 years later, and the TV business with editing and producing are far more superior than it has ever been.
Its not 1982 anymore
We have a common bond with those who are newbs or "oldies" that enjoy the show.
We like/love Knight Rider

I hope we get to do the live chat again with MasterKey, that was fun..........How about a live chat with GST or maybe Justin Bruening
