Things don´t look good for Knight Rider… and everything is pointing towards Knight Rider being cancelled…
Knight Rider is a series that follows the 1982 TV series of the same title and the 2008 television movie. The series stars Justin Bruening as Mike Traceur, the estranged son of Michael Knight. The series also stars Deanna Russo as Sarah Graiman, Traceur’s former girlfriend/current love interest. Sarah is daughter of Charles Graiman. Graiman is played by Bruce Davison, the creator of a new generation of KITT (Knight Industries Three Thousand), voiced by Val Kilmer.
What is Knight Rider About? – Plot
The story takes place 25 years after the original Knight Rider series. Mike Traceur (who later changes his name to Michael Knight), son of the original Michael Knight, has become the driver of the next generation KITT (Knight Industries Three Thousand), now a Ford Shelby GT500KR Mustang. Along with a former girlfriend Sarah Graiman, the daughter of the scientist Charles Graiman who designed both KITTs, Mike becomes the new champion of Knight Industries, a high tech government and law enforcement contractor. In the episode, Day Turns Into Knight, Dr. Graiman dies due to an apparent explosion on a damaged aircraft, and Agent Rivai is seriously injured and forced not to continue on as the team’s FBI agent. During the episode, Knight to King’s Pawn, the NSA shuts down the SSC due to Dr. Graiman’s death, and Agent Torres deactivates KITT in order to reactivate KARR. Torres believed that KITT’s programming would be able to override KARR’s inherent self-preservation protocols to save human lives instead of harming them. In holographic messages to Mike and Sarah, Dr. Graiman reveals this had always been Agent Torres’s plan for KITT and that he had opposed him. Mike is told that he was KARR’s original driver and that his mind was wiped in the wake of the project’s failure. The team find KITT’s AI stored online and attempt to rebuild it. Mike then infiltrates Area 51 to install the new KITT AI chip into his confiscated Mustang shell. As Mike and KITT flee, KARR discovers that KITT has been reactivated and overcomes KITT’s protocols, taking Torres as a hostage/driver. KITT is able to destroy KARR but Agent Torres dies shortly therafter. Sarah discovers that her father had left all of the SSC’s funding in her name. Sarah, Mike, Zoe, and Billy use that funding to restart the Foundation for Law and Government (FLAG) and continue on its original mission.
Maybe viewers can Save Chuck, but they are not likely saving Knight Rider.
Are you upset about Knight Rider cancelled news?
I think that Knight Rider should stay on it was a very good show I know my family likes it a lot So please keep Knight Rider on the air.
Keep it.
I think that if NBC cancelled the 2009 Knight Rider series i will boycot their network for the rest of my life!!!!!!! The show brought me back to my childhood memory’s of the orignal series and i think the new series show’s the same quality that the 80’s Knight Rider did! Again i am disappointed to hear the NBC has not considering another season and i will in FACT not watch ANY and i mean ANY of the shows that NBC will show in the future UNLESS Knight Rider makes another season!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will thank NBC for the return of the 2008/2009 17 episodes and i hope the consider a comback for 2009/2010.
Some may… but I don´t think it matters much. The show didn´t hit it this time around.
Let´s see what happens with V
I am sick of watching these shows only to have them get cancelled at the end of the season bring back Knight Rider
KEEP IT I LOVED THE SHOW!!!!!
too late… they already pulled the plug on this one
Sick gits, how dare they?
This is rediculous! I grew up watching the original. When i heard it was coming back i was so stoked! The movie made the space between make sense, and the new episodes were full of the action and drama we all loved the original for. The return of KARR. The possibility of losing another KITT. This is what Knight Rider fans want to see, why would you give us that much only to cancel the show after only one go round. WTF!!!!!! BRING KNIGHT RIDER BACK… AGAIN!!!!
as matter of facts..knight rider shouldn’t end so fast compare to the old knight rider series. i see no logic why it has to end so fast. i hope there will be continuous of this knight rider 2009 next year.
the show was perfectly good and i do like the car a lot.
beside the car the actor and actress are good too.
i believe everyone is chasing after this show.
well..talking here and expressing my words won’t changed a thing actually…
my last word for this is : Bring back Knight Rider 2009 back to where is belong……
PLS BRING BACK KNIGHT RIDER!!!!
i dont knw y the plug has been pulled on this one!!!
i have seen all the episodes!!
the actors did a pretty good job,the entire look and feel of the show was great..it has the prospects of have atleast 5-6 seasons if not more!!!!
i think KR was given too little time to prove itself.it has a huge fan following. eagerly waiting to see it back on air!!!!!!!!!!!
Please bring back knight rider, it was a show my whole family could watch, the good shows for the family are the ones that always get cancelled!
Having spent my child hood watching knightrider i found it amazing that my 11 y/old son found the new series as exciting as i did the first one. Shame its been dropped..with over a zillion channels to watch nowadays and all the same rubbish…why drop something different??????? give it time…..good things come to those that wait!!!!!!!
NBC You suck for cancelling Knight Rider. You suck big time. Knightrider was the only reason I watched your network. It is now 2010 and I still don’t watch NBC.
Me:
I´m not gay, but if I was it wouldn´t be a problem I guess.
I signed the petition and posted it on my Twitter account.
I´m all for campaigning to keep good shows. This one though is a lost cause now.
Pulpo, you are gay. are you going to help us bring knight rider back or are you going to sit back and
be lazy while the best show on NBC never be on tv again?
Im never going to forgive you NBC, My kids were very upset when they found out knight rider was canceled. Thanks a lot
