Ed, and anyone else, I concur that this week's episode served its purpose. It is essentially a new pilot for the series, which theoretically harkens back to what the original series was. The big secret about Mike's past doesn't make any sense, though, since Mike would have been two or three years old when KARR was created. But since nothing about the KARR storyline made sense, I suppose I have to let it slide. It was nice to see KITT not transform into a truck (or attack mode or super pursuit mode or whatever they're calling it now), instead using all the classic Knight Rider moves (turbo boost, ski mode, and even crashing through a garage door that was not... repeat not... made of tin foil). It was also nice to see Mike NOT use lethal force. When he shot and killed a guy two weeks ago and Russo, a.k.a. the skirt, told him that was hot, it was not in keeping with the spirit of what is, at its core, a children's show. As an aside, who provided the voice on KARR in the original series and in this week's episode, and were they the same person? They both sound like the guy who voices Optimus Prime. -- Kevin M.
