Silent Knight
Prismark1030 October 2018
There is plenty of soft rock music in this episode. Yes, Fleetwood Mac and Survivor. Yet no festive tunes considering it is set in the run up to Yuletide.

The action sets off with an armed bank robbery and one of the robbers also steal a gold watch from the bank manager which itself is later pickpocketed by a gypsy boy called Tino.

Kitt literally bump into Tino who is fleeing the robbers. Michael brings the boy to safety to his uncle, the king of the gypsies but the robbers are still after Tino.

It is unusual for the gypsy community of America to feature in television shows.

KITT gets to act like a sniffer dog in this episode as he looks for a spilled oil trail. It is not a very festive looking episode and Tino looks like a young Michael Knight, maybe a reason why Michael is so worried about him.

Eye of the Knight Rider

On their way to pick up a tux for the annual Foundation Christmas banquet, Michael and Kitt run into a gypsy kid named Tino who has just stolen a gold watch from a trio of bank robbers. Michael promises Tino's sister Marta to bring the boy to their uncle Stephano, self proclaimed king of the gypsies. But they are unaware the bank robbers, afraid of being identified by the boy, are on their trail.

Classic soft rock tunes and a nifty plot makes this a good episode with Knight helping a gypsy boy who is being trailed by some robbers.

substandard Christmas bore

Great Eighties rock music. Irritating boy. A thrilling chase by a... harvester? That slowpoke thing? Kitt dives into the mealies. Series takes a dive along with it. It's absolutely nonstop ridiculous. Should have had Michael rescue beautiful lady in distress like in "White Bird" the pride of the episode list. But no, no nothing under this Christmas tree but equivalent of Argyle socks. Bah and humbug!

typical zzzzzzzz Christmas episode
RavenGlamDVDCollector14 January 2021
If curly-haired Mexican boy singing along with car radio looking like a cartoon duck is your thing, this episode is just for you. About as exciting as being chased by a slowpoke harvester combine. Series takes a nose-dive and goes nowhere fast. Have Michael rescue beautiful young damsel-in-distress and skip the old ladies and IRRITATING brats.

While I appreciate the christmas theme, it could have been handled better. Michael runs around chasing a gypsy boy while talking presents with KITT. The action scenes were less than thrilling and the acting even more mediocre than usual.
