I saw the show last night and found it boring as hell. Was it really important to know that the ugly ass fbi agent is a muff diver? I also like how the wings appear out of liquid plastic. I think that if they were gonna put so much animation in the show Pixar should have got involved and it would have been a better show. The voice of KITT sucked and was boring to hear, almost mind numbing.

Yeah, I didn't know how to feel about Val being the voice but it was worse than I thought. I didn't enjoy the show much at all.

Especially the Mustang.

I thought the story was rather generic. I see no reason to watch future episodes. It's just standard TV spy/action stuff, with gimmick thrown in. (Which brings in bad and unrealistic car and computer plot elements, two things that interest me so I suspect that future watchings will just be exercises in frustration, rather than entertainment.)

I saw the recording last night. It was pretty good, but it felt like a 2hour long Ford commercial, 99% of the cars in the whole show were from Ford.

Edge
Focus
Fusion
Escape
Volvo
Land Rover
Silver Mustang
Blue Mustang
Black Mustang
Lincoln Limo
and we can't forget the reoccuring Foci commercials in between

I started watching it also, by accident. (channel surfing) Turned it off after 15 minutes. Boring, boring , boring.

I watched it, trying to recapture my youth perhaps, but it was just aweful, so was the original one, but I was a kid, I didn't know any better. I won't be watching it again.

I agree it was a 2 hour Ford commercial, so blatent it was offensive.

After 2 hours of sitting through it, and and I think it was only an hour, since there was a commercial every 10 minutes, my only conclusion is that I would bang that chick, as long as she kept her mouth shut.
