Has there been any word that they plan to turn this into a regular series? The whole layout of the movie was suggesting that since they spent the entire time establishing who all of the characters are. It definitely wasn't something meant to stand on it's own.

So many people are recording shows and fast forwarding through the commercials that the advistisers are looking for new ways to display their products. We rented 4 DVDs this past week and were shocked to find commercials before it went to the menu and it would not let you skip over them.

I missed the first hour of it and was not impresed with the second hour of it. I seriously dought I will wach it again. I used to love KR when i was a kid but this just recks it all together. If they where to make a new Air Wolf i would definatly not bother waching that. Those used to be my 2 favorite shows and I dont care to wach them destroy that one.

I didn't watch it either because it was a ford. They could have used that new generation camero like in Transformers. Whatever car they could have used, i'm sure it won't be worth a darn either way.

Just about all shows on TV are commercials. Its sad and almost insulting in a way. I stopped watching TV over a year ago and it was the best move Ive ever made and I highly recommend it to everyone.
Wait... are you saying "The Unit" in not entertaining and has no artistic value?

And here I thought it was a big step up from the original "car".

I'll just say this. There is no originality or imagination in Hollywood anymore. The humor is cheesy and the shows suck. Reality television makes me sick. I miss the good old days when I could come home and watch Night Court, then Hill Street Blues, all on the same night as Cheers!! Talk about great television!! On top of that, right around bedtime, MASH!!!

This will never happen again in our lifetime.

Mash is timeless, Cheers and Married with Children changed TV forever. Can't forget "Pizza Night", watching KUNG FU.

Hey, how about that new "Terminator" TV show...oooo another real winner.

That's OK, more reason to read and learn more instead of vegging in front of the TV.
Ditto!!
My first thought upon seeing the previews for both of those was, "GARBAGE!!"

The wife tapped it & I havn't watched it yet. I wasn't even going to tape it, because I was sure I would be disappointed. Seems that the reviews from my diesel brotherns have pretty much confirmed my suspicions.

I think it is "polish" a turd. Shine doesn't sound right for some reason, even though both are verbs.
