Knight Industries Three Thousand?

o, Knight Rider, perhaps the best show of the 1980s, is, like everything else that was once good, bad, terrible, excellent, or mediocre, getting remade. That may or may not be cool, I'm going to wait and see. But the show's already got one strike against it: KITT will not be a 1982 Trans Am. Instead, it'll be a 2008 Ford Shelby Mustang:

Now, I love Mustangs, and I think that the late-model ones, this one included, look really fucking awesome. I really like the pseudoretro design. But they're just not KITT. This is what KITT's supposed to look like:

KITT is sleek and streamlined. He's not a fucking muscle car. He's a sophisticated talking car, not a bully. Color me disappointed.

Did you hear that KITT in the new Knight Rider movie is going to be voiced by Will Arnett, GOB from Arrested Development?
Yeah, I did see that. I'm not sure how I feel about it, though. I can't see that guy playing anyone other than GOB. And, although he did that really well, KITT's not supposed to be an arrogant piece of shit, so we'll see how it goes.
