All right, the long hairs are canned and KITT will take center stage.
"It's a reboot," Gary Scott Thompson, executive producer/showrunner, said. "We're moving away from the terrorist-of-the-week formula and closer to the original, making it a show about a man and his car going out and helping more regular people, everymen."
Though hopefully they can work in the original KARR's back story and keep the Bond-like superspy past for Mike. While campy the formula they had for the first season wasn't bad, there were just too many cast members to juggle. I'll look forward to a throwback 80's troubleshooter theme from shows like A-Team and MacGyver. Maybe even a guest spot for Mr. T if they can get him off his charging Frost Saber long enough for an appearence.
