Again, I love the episode, it's so cool! But some things... Yeah kinda sad they didn't include or didn't do.

1. The Molecular-bonded Shell is the skeleton, rather than "the paint": I guess the writer didn't remember that fact. I mean, it was mentioned by Devon in the Pilot once, so maybe it's somewhat justified... But not for me! (Or us, you know. Also, I'm joking, I forgive 'em)

2. Devon isn't in the episode: I mean technically he is, but he's on vacation or something (I don't really remember, some time has passed after I last watched the episode). I would have really wanted him to be part of K.I.T.T.'s reconstruction, since he did help in the first! (Regarding when K.I.T.T. was being first built) ...Also because I like his character, but don't tell anybody.

3. Michael doesn't cry once: ohh man this one gets me FUMING!! You watched your friend die in one of the worst ways possible (while asking you for help. dang that's sad), and YOU DON'T EVEN SHED A TEAR????? I suppose it is because at the time protagonists weren't meant to cry? Well you know showing emotions and telling kids to show them too is better than to tell them the opposite, don't you think? Like I don't care if Michael sheds a single tear while trying to hide it or if he cries a fucking river JUST SHOW EMOTION MAN!!! Heh, and I don't even think he cried in White Bird either! ...well that may have been David's problem, but still, Michael tries to cry but ain't no water coming out his eye.

4. K.I.T.T.'s "non-human 'mode'" should've lasted longer: This is just a silly preference of mine, but I feel like it it would've been fun to see K.I.T.T. not talking like a person for some more time! Also why is it called a "mode"? That just means the "mode" is temporary! I would have named it Human Speech, since I think that's all it changes.

Anyway Riders, have a good day! And tell me some of your thoughts you also have in other episodes, or this one too if you feel like it! ;)

Fan-made Knight Rider video. Just for fun.

"Ugh, every week there's a canal."

"Or an inlet."

"Or a fjord."

"Quiet! I won't hear another word against the boat."

That is the Simpsons family above pointing out how there are convenient plot points every episode so Knight Boat can some how fit in every week. Knight Rider may not have been as blatant about it, but I realized there are only so many types of plots you can feature KITT in on the basis of being a car, and I've noticed some of them repeat.

The one that sticks in my mind as of this writing are the episodes where KITT enters some sort of automobile race to solve some sort of ulterior crime mystery. Then there are the times where KITT is reprogramed to be evil, or when he gets destroyed/heavily damaged and repaired.

I feel this may have been what ultimately killed Knight Rider, people got tired of seeing the same things even if the stunts were impressive. I struggle to see how many more seasons KR may have lasted had they been renewed after season 4, maybe one or two?

Jumped the Shark - a term used to denote the moment a TV show got bad.

I'd watch this.

Knight rider reimagined reboot concept

Kitt vs karr knight rider

In season 3 we learn at the very end that only karr's physical body was destroyed but his main CPU survived. What happened to it? Was it retrieved and dismantled by the the foundation? Was it buried under the sand again? Was it repurposed into the transforming karr 3000 in knight rider 2008?

Loved Knight Rider as a kid!! Anyone else??

Just got back from watching Super Troopers 3. Think there was a tribute or homage to knight rider and dukes of hazzard. The troopers got a new smart car cruiser that had an onboard AI that could talk. It was programmed to protect human life. It jumped a creek like a turbo boost while being chased by 2 guys in a mustang. On the roof of the mustang with 2 brothers driving it was a painted American flag. I know they couldn't use a Confederate flag like the General Lee had.
