Why did I do it?!

[wraithfodder]

Ack! I made the mistake of switching the channel to NBC and I went oh, "Knight Rider." I can let that play while I tread on the treadmill.

Pros - lead actor is cute

Cons - lead actor can't act that well, nor can the rest, and I just went ARGH! when the KARR (sp?) turned into an evil Transformer like car. No wait, I went ARGH! when Michael, to a hard rock soundtrack, gunned down several people with one shot of the shotgun.

Now NBC makes this dreck available online to watch, but SciFi can't make Stargate Atlantis available online to watch. Grrrr...

Take comfort in the knowledge that it's about to be canceled...

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

I get the feeling the actors ARE capable of better than what they do on this show. I think it's just 'let's do a car ad and in some people to amuse the kids." but yeah, I think they're just using it as filler..

My 7 year old loves Knight Rider, so we are forced to watch it each week. I was hoping it would be canceled soon darn it.

Lead actor is a cutie for sure though. He used to be on one of the soaps my step mom watches ( cant remember which one lol)

I think kids have a much higher tolerance for bad TV than adults ;) Well, no, maybe not. After all, reality TV does really well....

yeah, the lead actor is a cutie but the plots are...gah...

[luveskane.livejournal.com]

Yes, I really think kids do too, just look at Hannah Montana's popularity lol. girl cant act or sing well.


Reality tv drives me nuts, its all that is on half the time. I cant wait for the day when people start realizing how stupid it is. Won't hold my breath that will be anytime soon though LOL.

think you'll be dead and buried and turned to dust before reality tv dies out. alas, it's cheap to make!

Don't squash my hopeless dreams woman!!! *g*

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Ah. Darn!

I can't think of the lead actor's name, but he played Jamie on All My Children. He played a doctor/resident at Pine Valley Hospital.
I guess he probably thought he was moving up in the world....poor guy.

Were you blinded?! LOL

Let me find my keyboard ;)

It's not getting canceled just revamped.

[dundragon.livejournal.com]

[jedi40.livejournal.com]

Doubt it.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

yeah, they're killing people off. isn't gonna help.

[jedi40.livejournal.com]

True

[ladyniko.livejournal.com]

NBC recanted their full season order, and rumor has it that they are going to can the show at the end of the season. (This is from EZTV.it's news section.)

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Maybe Toyota could take it over? They're now the #1 car company. Hmm, Michael could drive a Prius... ;)

[ladyniko.livejournal.com]

*lol*

It's entirely possible.... they did make KITT a bloody transformer now, after all. :-p

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

the show lost any credibility when they... wait... it never had any to begin with! :)

[ladyniko.livejournal.com]

I finally watched this week's ep and while I will miss the older scientist guy, I won't miss the other 2 characters they removed by killing them off & injury.

I cackled loud and hard when I heard KARR's voice - it was Evil Optimus Prime, Mr. Peter Cullen! Oh, that is such a pun in the casting there. :)

[jedi40.livejournal.com]

That's news to me.

[flingslass.livejournal.com]

You mean he had John Wayne's gun? (The Duke never reloaded remember :D)

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Nobody runs outs of bullets on tv, unless of course it's a plot point ;)

mine is a cheap treadmill (aka manual) which luckily can be folded up adn squashed in between bookshelf and cabinet when not in use, which alas, is more often than not.
