Another "Knight Rider" spoof...

Post by CB2001 » Sat Sep 10, 2005 2:58 am

If you watch "Adult Swim" on the Cartoon Channel, you'll already know about this. If this hasn't been posted before here on the boards, then I guess that's cool. Anyways...

On "Adult Swim", one of the cartoons they show is called "Stroker and Hoop", which knocks on nearly every late 70s, early 80s TV Detective/Cop shows. And there is a reference to "Knight Rider" in there. Stroker and Hoop drive around in "C.A.R.R.", an orange talking car that is able to drive itself and is very annoying. In the episode I watched, C.A.R.R. crashed into a concrete wall, unaware that it was re-enforced concrete.

Not sure if anyone else has heard about the show, but here's a link to the official website for the show. Click on "Characters", then click on "C.A.R.R." to read the profile and get a good look at him (there's a clip under the "Show Clips" section. Scroll down until you see "C.A.R.R. Trouble aka Feeling Dirty"): http://www.adultswim.com/shows/strokerandhoop/

Actually, Neps had posted in here about a new cartoon that will be on soon that C.A.R.R. is actually from. THAT show I think is done by someone other than Universal so I hope they don't get sued or something. :lol: but that C.A.R.R. actually is a new cartoon show. Adult Swim was probably doing a parody of that cartoon.
