NBC yesterday announced their fall TV lineup, and as many of us suspected, it includes a new Knight Rider TV series. The reinvented show will air in the 8 p.m. Wednesday timeslot, with encore episodes to air each Saturday night in the off-season (summer 2009).
In addition, the show is getting a new executive producer: [...]

As you might be aware, the fourth and final season of Battlestar Galactica starts on the Sci-Fi channel this Friday night at 10:00 p.m. ET. Interestingly, it will also be aired early — at noon ET — on SciFi.com!
So I was watching TV earlier, when I noticed that my TiVo was showing “Battlestar Galactica [...]

Before I started this entry, I considered simply adding to the comments thread of Pooch’s post on the Knight Rider movie. In the end, I had so many thoughts banging around in my head that I decided it was worth adding an entirely new post on the subject.
To recap: This past Sunday night, NBC [...]

In case you’ve somehow forgotten, the all-new Knight Rider TV movie that all of us at Oddball Update have been waiting for is airing tonight on NBC at 9PM EST.
Part of me is intrigued, but another part of me is dreading it. Still, it can’t be as bad as Knight Rider 2000, right?

I had a couple of “holy cow!” moments yesterday. You know the type — like when you suddenly realize that one of your favorite songs as a child was recorded by an artist you “discovered” later in your life. In my case, I learned something new about two classic movies I’ve always liked.

After all the hell I went through to get it working, I have to say that Apple and I are really loving the TiVo HD. The other day we went through the list of upcoming HD movies and selected several to record. There were a few others that I thought about recording, but [...]

Today was Comcast’s third (and last) chance at sending a technician out to put working CableCARDs in my TiVo HD — last chance, that is, before I escalated it up to a supervisor. Fortunately, with about 15 minutes left to spare before the expiration of the appointment window, the tech appeared at the door.
The [...]

Comcast missed my third CableCARD service call today. This is the second appointment in a row where the tech just plain hasn’t shown up, despite assurances to the contrary. Last time I had the 5pm-9pm window. Today I had the 1pm-5pm window. For my newly-rescheduled appointment, set for Wednesday the 9th, [...]

NBC has released a little teaser commercial for the new Knight Rider TV movie, scheduled to air in February. It’s not much to look at, but it confirms two things:

The scanner light is back, albeit radically different.
The theme music — yes, glory be, the theme music — is back too. In a super-hip [...]

A big thanks to Pooch and Reaper for the Christmas gifts they sent me this year, one of which was the uncut version of Battlestar Galactica: Razor on DVD. I had never watched the copy I recorded from the Sci-Fi channel back in November, so I checked out the DVD eagerly and was totally [...]
