Its so funny the poor reception the KR2008 posting is getting. Yes, KITT calls Mike 'Mike.' This Michael is technically Michael Knight's son, and KITT is the Knight Industries Three Thousand, and in typical early-mid 2000s fashion, he is gay and homophobic. They're socializing him with black and white Westerns. He has a gun.
It's a very... sterile show. Poorly done. CGI in place of practical effects. KITT is constantly being spun around in this laser orb contraption. They turned him into a sort of goo and half of his tangible surface area can be used as a screen.
Of course, I'm only on episode two and I am sure it mellows out with time, but so far everyone here just kind of sucks. It's very jarring to see a Knight Rider with so much gun use.
