since the other thread is about the movie and this is about the series it's two different topics :) I think it's fine.

I don't think a full series has been greenlighted yet, has it?
From everything I heard the movie was considered a "backdoor pilot"... in other words, a freestanding movie with an opening for a TV series left at the end big enough to fly the FLAG C-130 through.
Speaking of the movie, I thought they did about as good a job of putting together a "classic series" revival vehicle as any I've seen recently. The only issue I had with it is that the whole "bash Blackwater" plot is getting old.

We could know as soon as Friday depending on the ratings last night. I thought it was good, and I liked the Hoff's cameo. The only things was that the new KITT voice (Val Kilmer) seemed a little too unfeeling. William Daniels was able to give emotion to the first KITT's voice, and you'd forget that it was a CPU. Made me want to see fotage with Arnet's voice to compare. I think they made it belevable about Tracuer being MK's son, and unlike other movies of this type, he wasn't an unkown kid.

The fact of Val Kilmer being the voice of KITT is probably the only reason I'd watch it.
The remakes of several of these old shows did not do well for reasons.
Maybe this one will break that pattern.

I have removed off topic posts. If you want to talk about how bad the movie was, we do have a thread running here NBC Knight Rider Movie = trash

If you want to talk about how bad the movie was, use the other thread. This thread is to talk about the series and the characters that are spun off from the movie.

It hasn't been decided and if it goes it'll be nearly a year before it begins, I think.
We enjoyed the movie last night. It was true to the original in that it was redeemed by its effects, but then, the acting is not usually good in a pilot because the characters haven't gelled with one another yet.

Saw portions of the new Knight Rider and, of course, it's not as good as the original. What's next? A remake of Airwolf? Actually...that might be kinda cool...

I vaguely remember the show. My brothers watched the show growing up. I don't know why I didn't watch it with them.

I missed the TV movie, but a friend is giving me a copy. I loved the original TV series. All 4 seasons are out on dvd.

I remember watching it and Quantum Leap on tv....not sure if it was in reruns by then though (probably was). my hubby is older then me and remember very well watching it growing up. It and that Don Johnson tv series were his favorites.
Yup- it would've been reruns. KR was probably about 10 years old or older when Quantum Leap started.

I think the voice for KITT was great too. I hope it becomes a series. The best thing about it is how actors tend to get better as a show progresses.
. The most difficult adjustment we had to make, was the adjustment to KITT's voice but eventually we could get accustomed to that. We both thought that the movie was the prelude to the new series but if it was I guess they would have put adverts about the season's premiere during the movie. 
But we loved eveything about the movie and the ending was just absolutely FANTASTIC. Wasn't it cool when the truck transformed into a plane. Oh I can hardly wait for the season to start.
