Ode To The Knight Rider

So the new Knight Rider on NBC is a terrible show, but I love it anyway. See, it's terrible in the same vein of the original Knight Rider. Let's be honest here, it's a show about a guy driving a talking car. That's the only draw in this show besides the eye candy. The girls, not the car. Though the Mustang is a hell of a beast. And they don't seem to understand the concept of time. You see, this week's episode was...The Halloween episode. I suppose you see the problem...Halloween is over.

Many of the things that happen on this show are so outlandish you can't take them seriously and that's how I like it. For instance did you know KITT can do blood testing? His glove box opens. You drop a syringe (provided by KITT) full of blood into the glove box and it closes. Moments later KITT knows anything and everything he possibly can about it. But HOW DID HE GET IT OUT OF THE SYRINGE?! I DON'T UNDERSTAND!

But to be honest, I don't want to understand. It's the perfect turn off your brain show. Also, KITT is a smart ass in this one. The car, voiced by Val Kilmer, is forever giving Mike Tracer (The Hoff's illigitimate son) lip. It's kind of awesome.

And, of course, staring at this one for an hour doesn't hurt.
