Knight Rider
I still don't know how I feel about this whole return of Knight Rider. An advanced talking car must have been awesome when the show originally aired, but now it feels so "done that."
Hoping to put our fears to rest, NBC has released some of the first clips from the upcoming two-hour pilot.
Clips: Knight Rider
The good people at IESB have posted five new clips for Knight Rider. After watching a couple of them all I could think was, "Eh, could be good."
Hard to say. There most definitely is action, and we do have a badass vehicle. It's just that everything else seems corny, even the cinematography.
So, how do we get back into the story of KITT?
Sarah Graimen (Russo) is a 24-year old Ph.D. candidate at Stanford University, following in her genius father Charles’ (Davison) footsteps. But when men attempt to abduct her, Sarah receives a mysterious call from KITT warning her that he’s a creation of Charles’, who also invented the first KITT 25 years ago -- and that her father is in serious danger.
Sarah and KITT track down her best friend from childhood, Mike Tracer (Bruening), a 23-year-old ex-Army Ranger, whom Sarah hasn’t seen since he left home at 18. Having served in Iraq, Mike is now jaded and lost and initially resistant. Eventually he agrees to help Sarah and the two set out to find Charles and to discover who’s behind the attempt to procure KITT. Along the way, Carrie Rivai (Poitier), an agile yet tough FBI agent who has a long-standing friendship with Charles and Sarah, is brought into the mix to help in the search.
Sounds intense - I hope they find him (concerned look).
