He's referring to the original, not the crappy new one!

I was referring to both Knight Rider series. boring as hell. I never really watched it as a kid, but my brother bought me the season 1 DVD set not to long ago. It was painful to watch.

Why? My post was directed towards Throw, as in the only way one could say "he didn't mis much" was if it was referring to the awful remake.

LOVE STREEKHAWK!!! Shout Factory released the series on dvd a couple years back! Well worth the purchase.
A great but short lived superhero series that was more serious than Knight Rider but not as adult skewed like Airwolf.
Would love to see some sort of fun fan edit of this!!!

Enjoying the hell outta this so far! Two episodes in. If I can pull it off (like I'm imagining) I'll be making a 5 minute mini-edit/trailer tribute to this edit. But as I've never made a trailer before... it's a big if

Excellent idea TM2YC! Mind you, I would say that wouldn't I?
Seriously though, really glad you're enjoying it so far. Hopefully your interest will continue to hold through the edit.Thanks for your kind comments!

Just watched Episodes 5 & 6. My mini-review will be quite mini this time.
These were solid episodes. I never saw Rambo III and nothing felt out of place. Audio editing was great, I didn't detect anything off this time.
I’ll tell you exactly what it is that bugs me about the Knight Rider zoom effect at the act breaks. The shot wasn’t properly cropped and there’s 1 or 2 pixels of black at the bottom of the shot that’s fading away. It’s a really anal nitpick but it is what it is. I see it every time and think “Should have cropped that.”
My TV spot bugged me, I should have made the B&W for the film match the B&W of the stock footage shots.
Overall these were a fun watch!
A/V - 10
Editing - 9 visual, 10 audio
Narrative - 9
Enjoyment - 8
Also I listened to the commentary for Episode 1. A lot of interesting stuff you talk about. Sometimes I got bored by the ramblings but mostly I was entertained. I'll most likely listen to Ep 2 commentary before watching the last 2 episodes.

Episodes 7 & 8 mini-review:
The “previously on” type of montage at the beginning of 7 was nice! (There were a few choppy cuts, but 95% excellence.)
Rambo was a weak movie but if you’re a big fan you’ll enjoy it probably. LS’s version is smoother and less of a groaner but still not the greatest ending to the saga (so far).
Excellent set of teasers on this disc! Hey all right, I actually enjoyed the TV spot I made. Too bad I’ll probably never get around to making those. Taxi Driver trailer was dope! From Nothing was pretty trippy. Shadow spot was marvelous.
A/V 10
Editing 9
Narrative 7
Enjoyment 7 (original 6)
Full review coming soon.

Rebue, posted on BAMFDB:
Overall this fanedit is another Last Survivor gem. A classic example of a fanedit remix, turning an action movie franchise into a mini-TV show. The first Movie-to-TV edit I’ve seen!
This is a hefty package, more than 10 hours of total content what with each Episode having a commentary. Brilliant man, brilliant. I listened to the first 2 and enjoyed them for the most part. They got a bit tedious but not unpleasantly. I may or may not ever listen to the rest, if I do I’ll edit my review.
The TV concept was hit and miss at times. I highly enjoyed the TV spots (slight bit more on those later) and the LS Network bumpers. But overall it felt a bit forced. That’s not the greatest way to explain it really. I mean sure, with this type of fanedit you ARE forcing a round peg into a square hole, but I guess some of the edges were a little rough and the peg splintered a little.
The structure of the episodes were the biggest breakdowns in that regard. Was each disc supposed to be like a mini-season? Or like was this a “Summer Event” type of show? I know in the UK it’s common to do short 6 or so episode seasons. I think it could have worked better if each movie was broken up into three 25 minutes episodes. Or do a 40 minute pilot and the rest are 25 minutes. Who knows though if the episodic arcs would have been better that way.
Editing wise… holy hell LS puts a lot of attention to detail. Title sequences had me glued to the screen each time. Majority of the audio editing was seamless. Some edits bugged me but nothing major.
The added Chuck Norris as Delmar Berry scenes felt very unresolved. LS talked about this in the commentaries I listened to and I dig that it was mainly a fan service for himself and other Chuck fans. But it came across to me as a plot thread that was forgotten about. I may just be a moron with ADD and it could be brilliant to you.
I guess overall I’d say that the editor scored big on the finer details but the broad strokes were a little sloppy. If you’re a fan of Rambo and/or Last Survivor odds are you will enjoy this.
P.S. - TV Spots were fantastic, very fresh and full of energy. Oh how I wish we had made more. Highlights were Plan 2001 and Taxi Driver.

Always grateful to receive a review for one of my older edits.... @Arpeggio-0563210 ... so glad you enjoyed this. One of the best fanediting experiences I had was working on this one.
