watching some Knight Rider on El Rey, it’s this weird Power Rangers dynamic where this goofy-ass overacting plot is melded with exciting (car chase) action footage from a completely unconnected filming unit

also like the Six-Million Dollar Man, all “Kids, you like the military, right? …oh, okay, you remember Vietnam, you hate the military.”

“Kids, you like one-off special function machines controlled with light-up buttons from your cockpit electronics warfare station?”

(Then came Top Gun, “but what if it was The Navy all along”)
