Goofs

K.I.T.T. has napalm all over its exterior and drives in the vacuum tunnel to "suffocate" the fire. Immediately thereafter, it leaves the tunnel again. Its exterior would still be so hot that it would be in flames again immediately, making an evacuation of Mike and Sarah impossible. See more »

Please Do Not Bother
25 September 2008 | by (Maryland, United States) – See all my reviews

Usually I'll give a new show 3 or 4 episodes to settle in before I pass judgment on it. I was tired of this one after fifteen minutes.

Almost everything is overdone: CG transformations, music, cheesecake. What might have been a funny line about an "adult film" star dragged on into four lines and drained all the humor out. Billy ought to sue Zoe for sexual harassment.

Even some of the performances are overdone (take some Prozac, people), with the notable exceptions of Justin Bruening and Val Kilmer; both are flat and lifeless. Bring back Hasselhoff and Daniels, say I.

There's got to be something more interesting to do on a Wednesday night than watch this.
