I liked it.
At the end I was like: 'Ay-Ay, look dey have truck and trailer like the old series'......
....and then KITT reverses down the ramp from a
MOVING C-130 HERCULES HEAVY TRANSPORT onto the roadway.
Said Hercules does a real smart pull-up off the road as KITT does a 180 and rockets away.
OMG...I was bawling like ten Tarzan!!!
BAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!! Of course, the geek in me loved the nanomachine based defensive system, and that very cool 'morph'
effect when KITT changes colour.
I think NBC has a good thing going here. Good choice in Val Kilmer for the voice-work.
Don't worry Shiv, about the turbo boost thing. I'm pretty sure there's another VERY cool ability to make up for that.
One thing though...is it just me, or did that whole pilot just seem like one long Ford ad at times?
