I have never seen the new Knight Rider and, now that Sydney Poitier has been axed, I never will.
~(no)rave! http://www.huliq.com/1/72690/knight-rider-ejects-three-stars Knight Rider Ejects Three Stars Knight Rider, for some unfathomable reason, has been picked up for a full season but three of its stars haven't. Sydney Tamilia Poitier, Yancey Arias and Bruce Davidson all will disappear after the 13th episode. This won't make the Knight Rider show better - as if anything could - but it will make it cheaper to produce. This is what bottom-feeding ratings do to a budget. In its most recent airing, Knight Rider managed only a smidgen over 5 million viewers - shows are canceled with substantially higher audiences - and its 18-49 ratings were just as gross. If there is an explanation for the continuation of the series, it's the product placement deal NBC has with the car company that produces KITT. The question of the day is, should auto manufacturers, who are going to Washington begging for a taxpayer bailout, be squandering millions on road kill like Knight Rider? Reported by TV Plus.
