Review: Knight Rider (2008 edition)

Repeat after me:

"Thank you, Peter.

"Thank you for subjecting yourself to the wooden acting of Justin Bruening, Deanna Russo, Sydney Tamiia Poitier, Susan Gibney, and even Bruce Davison.

"Thank you for listening to them actually improve on David Andron's obvious, painfully-bad script, as hard as that may be to believe.

"Thank you for not turning off the television as soon as you saw David Hasselhoff's name in the guest-star credits, and for actually staying around until his mercifully-short-yet-still-too-long self-aggrandizing cameo.

"Thank you for sitting through the crapfest that was Knight Rider so that we don't have to subject ourselves to it, and if, through some horrible twist of fate, it actually goes to series, for warning us that it's not only as bad as we thought it could be... but worse."

Thank you, Peter!

Not that I would've watched it anyway, not being a fan of the original series, but at least now I feel more confident about passing it by. So thanks!

You poor man. I thought about watching it, then decided to put my hand in the blender instead. It was a tough decision.

When the car is the most human character (and then just barely) you know you've got a problem.

Shit, they used a Wrens song in the show.

no, no, you may not understand, but they used a Wrens SONG IN THE SHOW!!!!

double shit.
