the new knight rider ??

I didn't think it really was any worse than the original TV show.

I bet that was exactly their goal, too... "let's just make sure we don't suck more than the original".   

...they failed.  Utter garbage.  I turned it off after 15-20 minutes of boredom.

If you didnt see Michael Knight introduce himself to his son at the end with zero emotion then walk off with zero emotion, you missed some of the worst acting ever.  You should find the last 5 minutes and watch it just for that.

...and the lesbian FBI agent.

The show is going overboard to sell sex.

It's a show about a car.  If I'm in the mood to watch a show about hot chix I'd watch Vegas.  Which I do.

Selleck’s character is a retired CIA agent(which is more believable than Mike Knight being an exRanger), they could easily do a combo episode.

A real Vegas/Knight Rider episode were A.J. Cooper kicks Mike Knight's butt would be worth watching.  Otherwise Knight Rider is dead to me.

I just got a chance to catch the new Ford(Knight) Rider, and I wish I didn't. The show was utter garbage. The "hero" has almost no "good" qualities at all, and the FBI chick is the dumbest agent on tv, with the exception of her partner.

BTW how is sleeping with 2 girls something that is wrong? The girls obviously didn't have a problem with it.

Bad role model? Great way to catch and spread diseases?

Maybe it was the fact that everyone was dogging on this so hard, but I just finished watching it.  I actually enjoyed it.  I was really young when the original came out and I remember loving the car and all that, but this new series could be good in time.  Sure, a lot of the acting wasn't the best and some of the driving scenes (from a distance) scenes looked pretty poor, but for two hours I sat and watched this and was entertained.

It reminds me of Viper in a lot of ways which I also enjoyed.  Everyone on here seems to hate remakes or re-imaginations, but I for one will stand up and say I like it and look forward to the series.

The knight rider main character a bad role model? Didn't Michael Knight have a different girl in every episode?

The knight rider main character a bad role model?

Yep. That perm was not a good example to be setting.

Looks like they're picking it up for a series, I guess the movie had decent ratings:  http://www.variety.com/VR1117983169.html

I like to imagine the guy at the end of this clip is the creator of the new Knight Rider show.

That is some kick-ass pwnage there. I just can't stop watching that awesomeness.
