Did anyone else see this? I really liked it.
There were a couple of surprises. Most notably, that the old voice wasn't the voice of K.I.T.T. In fact, the new K.I.T.T. voice is Val Kilmer. How hilarious is that?!?
I think the new Michael is pretty cute and not cheesey. He looks a lot like the oldest son on Seventh Heaven.
The show has enough darkness not to just be a kitschy 80s throwback. But it's not completely dark and emotionless, like the new Bionic Woman was.
The only thing I don't like is that it's clearly funded by the Ford company and they are only using Ford cars. Since K.I.T.T. can change form and look like any car, it comes off as lame that he would only turn into a Ford car. I'd love to see him look transform into a Mercedes or Jaguar or something else really sexy.
I thought the girl was pretty boring and not a great actress. She talked more like a Valley Girl mimicking the words of a computer genius. And she didn't have any personality.
K.I.T.T. was funny, but not cutesy or whiny like the old K.I.T.T. We'll see how that plays in later episodes.

When the show started, I watched the scene where the lead character is in bed with two hot women, then followed up with the sexy cop in bed with her hot lesbian lover. From that I thought the show was going to be horrible. But I kept watching. It turned out to not be as bad as I thought it was going to be. I did think the Ford thing was funny. Any car that wasn't a Ford had no identifying marks and happened to get totaled. . .

I saw it....it was fun and I especially like the homage to the original in the begining....KITT's KNIGHT Cali Plate and the piece from his kit two thousand I thought the new kid was good and not boring..he held his own and kicked butt.. The Hoff was cool in his cameo... Looking foward to see if it gets picked up as a series.
