The transformation is nice but the show lacks some vital aspects that made us gravitate towards the original.
1. The story for this second episode was not well done. The guy just gives himself the Knight last name after some people were coming after him?
2. Commercial breaks. Whenever there was a high point in the show we'd see a freeze frame and then a little cut scene of the car driving through the desert.
3. Super Pursuit Mode is the name of the high speed conversion. Attack mode is nice but it sounds like something 5yr oldish.
4. I don't like the transformers thing where the car turns into a truck.
5. The opening credits....the desert effect at the beginning is what pulls you into the show...they've removed that. I remember when I was younger and I first saw this dot on my tv screen coming closer to me, it made me actually sit down and watch what it was. That element is also missing.
Overall though it's a good show and I hope it makes it as big as the original, however there are some things I think Glen Larson needs to put his input into.
