    ...but the pilot is airing now and it's absolutely dreadful. Shut it off after 20 minutes and am now enjoying my DVD of OF&H:The Jolly Boys Outing instead. Why oh why did NBC cancel Journeyman?

    Ignore this awful Knight Rider remake if/when it airs in the UK/ROW. You have been warned! :bath

    It seems I approached it the exact opposite from you. I turned it on after 20 minutes had passed, expecting something quite hokey. But I actually enjoyed it a bit! :)

    I'm not a big TV watcher... but I won't ignore it if I happen to hit it while channel flipping. :)

    Oh good grief. The original series was bad enough (if for no other reason than it starred David Hasselhoff). Let it die.

    Well I was under the impression he meant Rest Of the World. But if it is Republic Of Ireland then I stand corrected :biggrin

    By the way I watched it...and yes its a continuation and I have to say I am impressed. And with The Hoff himself appearing towards the end...it was like the handing over of the torch. And what an exit strategy aswell for the car to come out...and no its not a truck this time round :biggrin 8)

    :ohmy And how would you like me to play frisbie with some of your jazz albums?:dry

    The Hoff rules and I love how it has passed down from one generation to the next. They are not trying to recreate but passing on the torch as wizard stated early.

    Hey Mike, did you do the contest for the new shelby?

    It was amazing how it was done towards the end. There he was passing on the torch to the younger driver of the new KITT which by the way I absolutely adore since I do love Mustangs. In fact im gonna watch it again on my main PC with my 5.1 surround sound :biggrin now thats how it should be watched :cool: so much better it was a continuation rather than a remake.

    Didn't they already try it with some dodgy series where Michael Knight had retired and KITT got de-commisioned so some kids took over and there was a high tech bike and a newer car and also a truck.

    And there was the crap film.

    KITT was gay :)

    I used to read a magazine that had a weekly cartoon strip in it. It was a bout David hasslehoff and Clint Eastwood living in an apartment together. Clint was always beating people up especially David and David was always having to chase KITT because he was always having sex with other other cars. :D it was very amusing.

    oooohhhhhhh michael :lol:

    duct tape aint good for my skin

    Well I can understand about Clint. He is an arse. But DH? Pfft, people are just jealous because they do not look as good as he does in a pair of swim trunks. :biggrin

    Is your skin starting to itch yet green? When the hairs on the back of your neck start standing up....
