THE DOOR'S OPEN

The door was left open for a return of Michael Knight & the Knight Industries Two Thousand...in the new Knight Rider....
Tho we only saw parts of K.I.T.T.#1 & Mr Knight in cameo-near end of show....even in the script, there is was a glimmer of hope....I hope you all caught it.
KITT #2...the personality is less agreeable to me than debating with K.A.R.R. although there are/were some elements of a rather KARR-esque moment or three I liked...I can say, I did not come to final approval of the story line &tie-ins with Wilton,Devon,Bonnie,Michael,K.I.T.T.-K.A.R.R. RC3,April....Until the end....ouch. ---nuff said.
( not happy- rather a sad point that did not make the movie well. )
the plane,the plane-ohhhh god,the plane......called to mind TKR & a real cheese-laden movie called "Mega Force" from the early 80s.....Sheeeeeesh!
the cast chemistry...was there but seriously diluted....the Prof-character I saw reminded me of Senator Kelly in the X-men Movies...(same actor,I think) Yeh,yeh,yeh, I know ...this is 25 yrs later,etc...new blood,give it a chance,etc.
But ya can't beat an original....( right, K.A.R.R.......? )tho K.I.T.T. was a slight improvement due to a difference in programming....the same was said about LORE/DATA in "Star Trek- The Next Generation"- the episode "reunion" -where we meet Data/Lores' creator-Father....
Now let's figure out a scene/half a show-or two where Michael & the Doc rebuild our beloved K.I.T.T. & they assist in a case then after passing the torch----Properly...they literally drive off into the sunset.
