Knight Industries tracks a criminal couple and discovers the felons have ties to the national congressional race. As things get hairier, Mike and KITT must step in to save Agent Rivai.
 
I am really starting to wonder what happens when they run out of titles that they can fit the word 'Knight' in to.
 
Wow, it will probably amaze some here to read this - but I was absolutely underwhelmed by this episode. The only moments that kept me from rating it "bad" were the "bomb under the car" sequence (nice nod to the original series there) and the gassing of the baddies. I was really disappointed that there was no chase scene between KITT and the Super Bee (it just seemed like a perfect set up). Ah well, hopefully next week is better.
 
So what kind of episode titles can we expect?

Nick at Knight?
Knightmares?
The Good Knight Kiss?
Night of the Knight?
The Knight Horsemen?

I'm sorry what are we talking about here?... Oh yeah Knight Rider.

I voted bad. This was probably the worst one so far. The Super Bee, the cool bomb sequence and my drooling over the Mustang GT500KR kept me from voting terrible. The story was lame. Mike and Sarah need to f and just get it over with. Billy and Zoe are still annoying. Tracking a car by an oil leak... Ugh! Finally, and KR is certainly not the only offender, but I'm really sick of TV characters hacking everything under the sun in minutes. Especially top secret paramilitary computers that are likely using custom operatings systems, filesystems, encryption, etc... Yet somehow, the congresman's bimbo daughter was able to steal data from under the SSCs noses. :rolleyes:

While I agree with your point (the hacking is getting a bit silly overall) I think it was Max, not the bimbo idiot who set up the actual hack. She just implemented it.

KITT: "Sarah, if you and Michael are attracted to each other, wouldn't the most logical course of action be to express your feelings to him?"

SARAH: "No KITT, you don't understand, people don't work like that. It's complex."

KITT: "In all honesty Sarah, I believe you are in denial and just enjoy being a tease and tormenting Michael."

SARAH: "Sssshhhhh...we'll just keep that our little secret."

KITT: "We cannot Sarah, this entire conversation has been broadcast to the SSC."

SARAH: "Sonuva..."

I'm really getting frustrated with the lack of good car stunts PERIOD on this show. The original show had KITT crashing through walls, turboboosting over cars and trucks, entering demolition derbys and off-road rallys, facing off against tanks and construction vehicles, and getting in long car chases across dirt roads and a variety of other terrain.

No matter what you thought of the rest of the show, that was always some fun shit to watch. The producers seemed to go out of their way to put KITT in every extreme situation they could think of.

Now pretty much all KITT does is transform, shoot lasers, and play movies on his windshield. And the lame car chases always seem to take place on the same mountain highway. lol
