Re: [scifinoir2] Re: Preview: Knight Rider Is Back!
I DVR'ed this show, and after watching a really interesting CNBC show about Nike, I pressed play. I didn't make it though 12 minutes of this show. There was better acting AND better car shots in Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. Yes, the cars were better actors in that movie than in this show. I really hope Ford didn't PAY to get the Cobra in this show, because UNTIL I SAW this show, I thought it was a cool car. Now I wouldn't be caught dead in it. Which is a really weird thing, because even today when you see a Black Trans Am, someone says Knight Rider!. All I could think during the whole time I watched was someone got paid to write this. And who ARE the actors in this show? Where did they COME from? This show is why Ronald D. Moore deserves some kind of special Emmy. BSG is the only remake of an 80s show that has worked. The ONLY. At this point, there should be a show that combines 'A-Team', 'VIP', 'Renegade', and 'Hunter', so that there would be one bad show on at a fixed time, just like Baywatch, that would run for 15 years. This way we don't have to bother with shows like this...new actors could test their chops on the one bad show, and then break out from there. Consider all the lessons Dick Wolf learned from producing New York Undercover. Law Order is a better show because of it.
