knight rider online

Okay, so my roommate has never seen Knight Rider, and wants to see an episode. I have the first 3 seasons, what would you say is the best episode to show him? He's probably not all at that interested in the story and he may very well never see another episode again, so Knight of the Phoenix probably isn't worth it. What's a good exciting episode you all think shoudl introduce someone to Knight Rider?

You all should be able to have fun with this one.

KITT v KARR or Junkyard Dog. Maybe Knightmares.

I would go with KITT vs. KARR. AWESOME! I wouldn't show him anything that makes KITT seem too vulnerable.

Knightmares is another good one. Shows KITT's dedication to Michael.

Another good one is the Knight In Discrace as that was a really good one. So was Scent of Roses.

How about A Good Knight's Work, it goes to the Michael's & Foundation history making your roommate wondering about the show, who's Tanya Walker and who's grave was Michael Long's, what were those shooting in the face flashbacks etc. Maybe your roommate would want to see the show from the beginning then

That's actually a good idea, KITTfan.

Yes...KITT vs KARR is also a very good idea....

I don't need to make a decision until Sunday, so keep the idea coming

I have several in mind for you:
"Race for Life"
"Knight in Disgrace"
"Soul Survivor"
both "Goliath" episodes
"Short Notice"
"Junk Yard Dog"
"Silent Knight"
I hope these episodes are some you can introduce your roommate to.

Knight of The Phoenix is a good choise because of the fact that it introduces you to the show. Nevertheless, it's a very boring episode and I think that your friend will find it the same way.
So what episode do I consider to be the best one for you to show your friend?

Well, as some of you already mentioned, it's not a good idea to show him an episode were Kitt gets destroyed! It sort of ruins the whole idea with "the indistructuble car".

My advice would be:

Show him atleast 1 episode from each season (4 in total):
If you are restricted in time, you could split the episodes by showing a small bit from each.

Season 1:

A Nice Indecent Little Town (Lots of chasing = exciting)

Season 2:

Custom Kitt (Stands out from all episodes = a new way of thinking for the show)

Season 3:

Buy Out (Great background music and interesting investigations = encourages your friend to watch the final season as well)

Season 4:

Redemption of a Champion (Lots of fighting = I love Knight Rider)

I hope this helps...

I'd go with "A Good Knight's Work".

A true classic, a brief refresher on the Knight Rider backstory included -- and loads of action!

and it has the great shut down sequence of KITT.

I would go with 'Forget me Not' because it has the most turbo boosts and has a fair bit of action but the con is it has the annoying Judy Landers in it.

Definitely Trust doesn't rust followed by KITT vs KARR.

Those are two episodes I can watch over and overrr and overrrr again, so I'm sure your noob friend would find it fun to watch too. What's better than 1 cool car? How about two of them!

haha...Well I forgot to bring KR back with me from home, so we have more time to decide.

A Good Knight's Work isn't a bad idea if for no ther reason than the humorous interchange with that talking Bear and KITT, along with a genuinely good episode.

I LOVE the chase scene in A Nice Indecent Little Town with one of the exceedingly rare Turbo Boosts shown at normal speed - wheich they should have done more often.

The KARR ones are always good....

It's tough choice. A lot of the ones I find exciting and I'll show to someone and notice that, to an "uneducated" person, they really aren't all that exciting.

Scent of Roses....my personal fav., or KITT Vs. KARR will do just fine...

custom kitt that rocked that ep and K.I.T.T v K.A.R.R

'KNIGHT OF THE JUGGERNAUGHT' is a great one. I'd say 'KITT vs KARR' is a close 2nd.

Oh woe is me... Since I haven't seen a single KR episode in 3 years (Yep, don't have the dvd's... either pity me or sponsor me, I refuse to download... But soon I'll have them...) the "characters" that stick out are
1st: CARR,
2nd: Goliath,
3rd: the acid!
(I remember the pain of seeing KITT in danger...)

I think everyone (even those who never seen KR) already knows the basic KR lore: Kitt is "supposedly" indestuctable, can drive by himself, can talk and can turboboost... why not build from that?

Final Vote from me :
"Trust doesn't rust" - Keep Kitt Vs Karr for if (sorry... when) there is more interest...
"Goliath pts 1&2" - Keep Juggernaut for later(same reason)
