and one car to get the job done. Now the foundation
for law and government has assembled five highly
skilled operatives and paired them with the most
advanced state -of -the -art vehicles. to take
on a new breed of Outlaw. They are Team Knight
Rider. Welcome to Beyond the Night brought to
you by the GCRN. I am one of your hosts TF2 and
Mike. Joining me is Dylan the Music Man. Hello.
Hey, it's football day. You know, I'd rather
be watching that than watching this. Oh my god.
I actually had to pull myself away from the Seattle
Seahawks, you know, in the Atlanta Falcons game.
Oh, Seahawks. Exactly. Last time I knew they
were ahead, like 13 to 3. Boy So this is episode
39 of beyond the night. We have after this we
have three episodes left of team Knight Rider
It progressively gets work like the first few
and it progressively gets worse after that Yeah,
it does it seriously does it's Don't know how
this lasted 22 episodes anything I have to say
this it actually Makes the original Knight Rider
series not all of them not like not not all the
episodes, but it makes some of the bad Good There
are times where at least one of the actresses
she can't act for crap no I'm sorry to say but
the chick that plays Jenny Christine Steele that
The character of Jenny in some of the episodes
that we're gonna be getting to over the next
couple of episodes of the podcast She is by far
one of the worst actors I've ever seen At least
to me she's not like in some of the episodes
not all it's more fun Jenny has a stick up her
ass Yeah, and then the the female car I forget
which one it is Yeah Can't stand her Yeah, yeah,
I cannot stand Domino Dante reminds me of an
updated William Daniel so much Because well think
about it He's he's he's He's more He's he's got
more of a blunt personality. Yeah His wit if
you're not careful, he will slap you with it
and you did not see it coming at all And you
know, he does have a bit of a heart, you know,
and you know, even though he's a vehicle even
though it's a vehicle He doesn't have a bit of
a heart, but it's more of an updated kit. So
I kind of like that about him beast though is
like more of Which is quite funny. He's like
more of an electronic romancing car. Are you
okay Jenny? Yeah, and I'm like, oh and you know
Ginny's like I'm fine and I'm like, oh my god
It's a it's it's an electronic star stalker.
Yeah Yeah, there are times where I can see a
little bit of kit in beast, but it's few and
far between. Yes. Yeah But you see it more in
Dante. Oh, yeah So today we're gonna be taking
you beyond the night interviewing three more
episodes of Team Knight Rider. Hit the turbo
boost kit. Oh wait, they completely ignore you
in this series. And that's bad. After this. Well,
they don't completely ignore him. They do mention
several things, but we'll be back with the first
episode after this. Can you hook into the mansion
security cameras? That shouldn't be too difficult.
Create a tape loop. Empty hallway and room, then
override their monitors. I know what to do, but
I still don't think this is such a good idea.
Opinion noted. Opinion noted? Why be so oblique?
Why not just say, shut up, Dante? Stand by. Kyle.
What? Be careful. First up today is... out of
the past. When Kyle disappears in the South American
jungle, the crew must deal with a jewel thieves,
natives, and centuries old ray gun to rescue
him from the daughter of a former double agent.
Okay. Well, I was so bored with this. Yeah, I
was, too. The pacing of the episode is so slow.
And then, of course, the outcome is the daughter
is, ooh, she's the new queen. She's the one that
actually set the whole friggin' thing up. Oh,
God, it's your standard... Villain of the Week
again. It almost sounds like, but... It is Villain
of the Week, but it's your standard Indiana Jones
copycat type of thing. It is. even that great
in the first place and I'm sorry something any
episode or any cartoon or any anything that has
the title of the thing being out of the past
I expect something to be out of the past not
just a random adventure in Kyle's life that oh
you know they used to date X number of years
ago I mean at least with other Things that I've
seen entitled out of the past for television
episodes. They've actually dealt with something
like it'd be interesting if they Somehow actually
got the real Michael Knight not that fake copycat.
We'll see in a couple episodes You know if they
did something like that or if they I don't know
it's just this episode is just so hard It's hard
to watch it was hard to watch it was hard for
me to make good and bad notes on Yeah, yeah,
I mean there's only I only wrote down one good
thing and I'm pretty sure and we'll get to when
we get the scanners But I'm pretty sure we have
the same. Yes. No Yeah, overall the plot sucks
the what action there was with the actual cars
because it is team Knight Rider, right? What
action there was of the cars was really good.
But other than that like I I played like Cause
I know you don't use Facebook, but on Facebook,
they have all different kinds of games and one
of the games is called Bejeweled Blitz. Get as
many points as you can in one minute. I played
like 20 games of Bejeweled Blitz in the first
20 minutes of the show and I'm like, of this
episode, and I'm like, this episode isn't over
yet, oh my god. Come on, hurry up. Any other
think that I think they could have, you know,
OK, like you said, out of the past, you know,
you are looking at something that happened a
long time ago. Why, you know, maybe they could
have gone back to a reason of why they hid Michael
Long's past, you know, something to that effect,
you know, maybe they could have gotten David
Hasselhoff to guest star in this, you know, as
you know, just, you know, to bring the episode
some excitement. you know something like that
I know that Edward unfortunately wouldn't have
been around but at least Hasselhoff or you know
even Patricia or Rebecca or Peter somebody something
something to that you know one of those guys
you know RC with his old bike do what RC with
his old bike oh yeah the torn up bike Yeah, from,
um, oh, uh, Killer Kit. Killer Kit, yeah. Yeah.
Alright, let's get to the scanners. What? Did
you find him? You could say that. Picked up a
police report from the city of El Bas. A valuable
gem was stolen during a party from the home of
a developer named Pablo Calderon. Play it for
a trick. Mansion Security Systems picked this
up. Plato enhanced grid 613. I can't believe
it. Hi, Kyle Stewart jewel thief. Maybe there's
hope for him yet. Should we tell the Foundation?
Somehow I don't think they'd take kindly to the
leader of TKR flying off to South America to
pull a heist. Duke's right. And we have to get
to him before the authorities in El Bas do. Once
they catch him, they may not be so willing to
let him go. Jenny? Jenny? You all right? Yeah.
It's just, uh... It just doesn't make sense.
I mean, Kyle would never do anything like this.
Someone could be blackmailing him. Which brings
up another question. Yes. What could be so important
to him that he would risk his career? his entire
future. Alright, let's turn these scanners on
and off. First scanner's on, and I'm pretty sure
we're gonna have the same thing. That was a nice
nod to classic KR. Why don't you just tell me
to shut up, Dante? Yeah! That's the only thing
I wrote down. Only good thing about this one.
Is this episode alone? I mean, like you said,
with what action there was, it was like, okay,
really? You know, what? For scanners off, all
I had was, is this episode over yet? Boring as
hell and really titled out of the past and it
has nothing to do with Flag, with Devin, with
Michael, with Wilt, hell, even if they did some
- With Bonnie, with April, with RCE, you know,
RCE3. Right, but even if they did, like - Okay,
sure. I don't I don't remember because for me
personally I don't Once I see someone in a in
a role like a Michael Knight. I pay attention
to the character I don't pay attention like yes
in the back of my mind. I know Hasselhoff is
You know battled alcoholism right in his life,
right? But I don't focus on the personal life
of the actor I focus on the role that they made
famous and all as I'm saying here is yes, I understand
that At the time probably he was going through
stuff or maybe they couldn't reach an agreement
But you could have done something with Wilton's
past you could have done something with at least
the one child that is supposedly still alive
in in in jennifer knight you could have done
something that had to do with the knight rider
legacy instead of just doing a villain of the
week oh and also she and kyle used to fuck so
many years ago you know i i just don't This episode
we gonna do you have anything else? I can't think
of anything else I really can't accept this,
you know, like you said I think they should have
if it was gonna be titled out of the past I think
You know, maybe they should have focused on Why
was Jenny I think it was a Jenny I was trying
to access the computer Find out another episode.
I think was well, yeah, but what I'm saying is
why would you vote? You know, what are you trying
to find out? You know, what do you is there something
you you don't know that's in the last episode
Yeah, that's an angels and change today. Um,
so it'll come up later come up later But okay,
but was what I was gonna say is I agree with
you on this. They should have focused on something
flag You know How did you know how well better
yet? How did Michael cope? After leaving the
foundation yet again, you know, what is he doing?
You know, is there anything that he could tell
the new people that they need to watch out for?
No, I think it could have been an episode of
how the new vehicles and the whole new project
was Set up right, you know something other than
just bland old villain of the week, right? We've
had one of those already. I think we've had a
couple. Well, the next one isn't so bad, so we'll
get to that here in a minute. It's basically
a big bomb on wheels, programmed to drive to
the center of its targeted area and release a
neutron blast that wipes out millions. What kind
of nut comes up with this kind of stuff? Trick.
Yeah, I had nothing to do with this one. It was
a strategic weapon developed by the Chinese.
They launched two of them up into orbit 20 years
ago. First neutron 5XE? Came down by accident
in 81 in upstate New York. I don't have all the
details, but it was deactivated before we had
a chance to wipe out the whole tri -state area.
Wait a minute. Does this mean we're at war with
China? Chinese government swears they don't know
how this one came down. This one's loose somewhere
in New Mexico. If it detonates, it'll take out
the entire southwest. Not much can stop it. It's
designed to destroy everything in its path. The
Army is setting up a blockade. General William
Simonson is in command. I know him. Domino and
I should go out there to assist flag has something
else in mind for us We have to find the guy who
brought down the first neutron 5xc. He may be
of help his name's Ken Savage Fighting robot
mega man. Oh, I'm sorry And where's dr. Wiley
when you really need him? Recruiting a reluctant
former member, played by Richard Coleman, is
the team's only chance to defuse a satellite
weapon that crashed to Earth after falling out
of its orbit. Now, this is more of a quote -unquote
out of the past episode that I would really enjoy,
and I did enjoy this episode because this takes
place... Before the Michael Knight era of the
foundation for law and government this takes
place before even car so This was really interesting
and awesome, right? I like the plot the pacing
of the episode was great. I thought that it for
because obviously when you buy stuff on iTunes
or buy TV shows or rent TV shows, but when you
get TV shows on DVD, et cetera, et cetera, et
cetera, there's obviously no commercials. So
this 42, 43 minute episode went by faster than
I thought it was going to. The nice thing about
it is that it kept you on the edge of your seat.
You did not have to look away from it. You did
not have to put it, you know, in the background
and go, I'm going to go on the Facebook or I'm
going to go on Twitter and, you know, or you
know, just put it on his background noise. You
know, so it was a great episode. I agree with
you. This should have been an out of the past
thing, you know, a reference. Yeah. Because,
you know, like you said, it was before Michael
might before car, you know, that type of, yeah,
before anything. Right. We knew. Yeah. Yeah.
The other thing that I like, and I think we mentioned
this in the intro, or you did, you said you didn't
really care for Erica. Erika really proves her
worth here. I didn't... Well, I guess it was
either Erika or Jenny. It's one of them that
is very stuck up. Jenny is the stuck up one.
Okay. Well, I thought Erika could be two at times.
Maybe that just means... She can be snobbish,
but she doesn't have a stick up her butt. Erika
will go into a casino and win all the money and,
you know, all that other stuff, but... Jenny
is the one because Jenny has the military background
and everything else and she just can't get past
that and I and I understand that But this was
the episode where cuz Erica got close to the
six million dollar man ripoff We can build him
we can recreate the technology Good times good
times yeah no this this episode was good though
this was really good um you did not like i said
no you didn't have to turn it on his background
noise you could sit and watch it you know and
you now this would probably be one of the ones
if i had a top 10 list that i would watch again
oh yeah totally agree you know i would watch
this one again yeah all right let's get to the
scanners Once upon a time, there were three little
girls who went to the police academy. What's
he doing? Watching Charlie's Angels on TNT. It's
his favorite show. I didn't want him to miss
it. It's the one where Cheryl Ladd wrestles an
alligator. Did you find anything? Yeah, yeah,
look at this. Some kind of top -secret flag pension
fund that he's supposed to know about. Pays out
a bi -monthly check to former employees. They
pay us when we leave here. Where do I send my
letter of resignation? I went over all the files.
There's no Ken Savage. This guy's got to have
a really high clearance. So you came up empty.
Great. That's what I love about TKR. Such a supportive
environment. No, I dug deeper. Look at this.
I was able to use the senior flag official's
access code to get me some real heavy -duty secret
files. How'd you get his code? Well, he brought
his great Dane Caesar to the flag picnic last
summer. I knew that had to be it. Ken Savage,
retired 1981. Well, there's an address. You think
it's current? Well, flag still sends checks there
every other month. Turning the scanners on, I
already mentioned the, uh... Six million dollar
man ripoff. This is seriously better than the
first episode we watched today. It's nice to
see Flag had other ups going before the Age of
the Knight Rider. I thought that was really cool.
And overall, I don't know, I really enjoyed the
episode and Erika actually having a character
was a great thing as well. Yes. Because it does
give her more character instead of just being
this flamboyant person who is going to go off
half -cocked and not have a plan and just wing
it all the time. While winging it is good at
times, there are times... It doesn't always work.
Yeah, no, it doesn't always work. What did you
like about this one? I liked the fact that, you
know, we do get to see a little bit of Erika
stand out in this episode. Like you said, she's
not as flamboyant. She reminds me of David in
the sense that sometimes you have to switch to
a backup plan. You know, if one plan doesn't
work, you switch to another one. And she reminds
me of the Michael Knight portrayal. And I think
that's what they were going for with Erica's
character. Yeah. Oh, I totally agree. All right.
Well. i really have no scanners off i don't either
i mean it was overall really really enjoyable
uh... like i said it's uh... as i said like i
said it's an enjoyable episode you can watch
this again despite the fact that it's five cars
now not one uh... but yeah i i can look past
that though at least for this one i think we're
going to have to get over that yes it was a serious
idea that's like okay we know it's five cars
We're just gonna have to just roll on with the
paces and just keep on trucking But you know,
I do like that Erica gets her Moment in the spotlight.
Yeah, I do too. I really do So we're gonna move
on to the final episode of the day I Didn't know
you were on duty tonight Neither did I Kyle decided
to check the case reports and found out I know
what and I don't do case reports What are you
doing here? I just have to do prep for some crew
evaluations, but I can do it another time. No,
stay. Actually, I wanted to talk to you about
something. Anything wrong? No. It's just that
I was working on my summary of the Galbraith
case, and I read over Kyle's report. You really
stuck your neck out for me. Don't sound so surprised.
Yeah, well, um... You know, I have a lot of trouble
being sincere, and, um... I'm not the kind of
person who's used to having... friends. And I
just, um... You're welcome. And finally up today,
we have Angels in Chains. Jenny is charged with
treason when she is linked to some stolen files,
and the team must rally to prove her innocence
before she spends the rest of her life in prison.
Dun -dun -dun! Something like that I Do like
how the plot is done in this I do like how we
see More of kind of the past when it comes to
Jenny and all that yeah The pacing of it was
Even for it being a Mobius episode it was still
a look I mean I get that Mobius is supposed to
be oh this mystery man behind the curtain You
don't know who he is blah blah blah right At
least At least it wasn't as slow as the first
episode today no So these two make up for the
slowness Oh, yeah, we still make up with the
slowness. Oh Yeah, not to mention the fact that
this isn't one of those villain of the week episodes
Mm -hmm. It's not one of those and You know again,
we get to see a little more of the past probably
coming out You know because like you know, we've
said before Jenny has a military background You
know, so now everybody's pulling together to
prove his innocence prove her innocence rather
and You know, this is actually a good episode
to watch. Um, it just, you know, there are some
good moments. I'm sure there's some bad moments
that we'll touch on in this episode. Yeah. I
mean, really, I don't know. It's, I find it really
interesting how flag is now or it's not just
one person. Well, it is one person. That's some
old. some old lady but apparently there's a board
of directors and we kind of already knew that
in the first one like oh this will never go past
the boy you know Devin always says oh this will
never go past the board blah blah blah I saw
the directors in you know in the Garth in one
of the Garth episodes but it's just one of those
things where I'm wondering now who the hell did
Devin leave in charge of the overall organization.
That's what I'm wondering at this point. Yeah,
because after Knight Rider 2000, you know, in
Knight Rider 2000, he's killed off. Yeah. So
it makes you wonder, who did he leave in charge?
Definitely not Russ Maddock. You know? Mm, well,
let's hope not. All right, we're gonna get to
the scanners in a moment. Hey, where do you think
you're going? Please step aside, Miss West. You
can't just come in here like you... What do you
think? Well, here. Here, have another. Dante,
get me Kyle. Who the hell are you? We work for
the same people, Mr. Stewart. Still doesn't give
you the right to barge in here unannounced? No,
but this does. Jenny Andrews we have a one for
your arrest So turning these scanners on and
off this episode was a blast it was I really
I really did like how they used Michael Michael
Knight aspects and I'm still not sure about what
Mobius is in game is like he seems to want to
use Jenny to do stuff and I just don't know and
we never actually and we'll get to this when
we get to episode 41 right in a about a couple
of months, but it's like we never actually really
find out what his his like If they had had something
in this series, even just a five -minute thing,
like the whole point of a supervillain, whether
he's in a wheelchair or not, is he reveals his
plan. He monologues and reveals his plan. Wait,
he was in a wheelchair? He was in a breathing
apparatus. He was in a chair or something. Okay,
I didn't know if that was a wheelchair or...
It's something. I can hear the breathing apparatus.
He's always sitting down. Yeah. Every time you
quote -unquote see him, it's his chair rolling
away. Ah. So, yeah. Okay. What'd you like about
this one? Um, it was a blast. There were no boring
moments. Um, you know... You know, I do... I
am kind of curious as to why she wants to know
about Michael Knight. What is so important to
know? Well, they told you in this episode. In
no uncertain terms, she thinks he's her father.
Yeah, she has a lot of daddy issues That's why
she kept trying to access this file because and
they and it needed to hire security clients than
what she had right I think she had like the highest
that there was level five and And the computer
was like no you need higher than that Yeah, it's
level 6 that you need, so... And by the end of
the episode, she got it. And I'll end... Oh,
God. Let's just move in the scanners off, because
holy crap. The file! The file! I didn't mean
to make it sound so bad! No, no, no, but the
file that Kyle hands her, I actually paused it
and looked at it. What was it? At the top it
had foundation, it had dates or whatever else,
and it had Michael Knight's name on it. The actual
contents of the first page of the file is episode
titles and synopses from the original series.
It had Buyout on it, it had Junkyard Dog on it,
it had all kinds of stuff from Season 3. That's
all it was. That's it? That's it. That's pointless!
Know oh My god, we need to like take a screenshot
of that I'll go back and do it Like kids in case
people have not like no, you're not you don't
know what you're talking about. Here it is. Yes
it is Oh, yeah. Yeah. No, no, no, trust me. I
know exactly what I'm talking about now Did it
show like just different episodes from the different
it showed season 3 it was mostly season 3 I remember
seeing Buyout, I remember seeing Junkyard Dog,
I remember seeing Kit vs. Carr. So it was mostly
stuff from Season 3. And alls it was was it gave
a date, it gave the episode title, and it gave
the description. Wow. It's all the body of the
first page was. So, I don't know. Any other bad
moments for you out of this one? I guess it would
have liked to have seen something where Jenny
and her father would have reconciled differences.
You know, if she had issues, she would have been
able to talk to him. Well, she got to find out
who he is. Right. But I mean, I mean, after what
I'm saying is after she found out, I'm saying
after she found out, then you, you know, then
you try to reconcile your differences and let
him explain, look, this is why I've been away
from you for so long. Yeah. But unfortunately,
we didn't see that. So, yeah. All right, we're
gonna take a quick break. We're gonna come back
with final thoughts and ratings after this. Coming
soon from the Command Center Commentaries, celebrating
20 years of Power Rangers. It's morphin' time.
Thank you so much, Jason David Frank, for that
ringing endorsement. Yes, that's right, folks.
Starting in Episode 29 from the Command Center
is going back and celebrating 20 years of Power
Rangers with the From the Command Center Commentaries.
We'll be doing 15 episodes from MMPR Season 1.
And after that, who knows? I know we're doing
commentaries from Seasons 2 and 3, and we'll
do a commentary on the film. After that, who
knows? Commentaries could take us through a number
of episodes. There's a very, very, very long
list. So I hope everyone enjoys it. As I've said
before, we will get to Megaforce once that series
completes itself on Netflix or whatever else.
Thank you so much and now prepare yourself for
from the command center commentaries our way
of going back in depth and noticing stuff we

great overall. He said return of Mega Man. Really?
Well, that's the name of the episode. That's
funny. Angels and Chains. Dr. Wily and Dr. Wright.
Yeah. Actually, it's Dr. Light, but yeah. Five.
I have to give this one five kit cars. Surprisingly.
I have to give it a two. Really? I have to I
have to take three points off for them not actually
giving her any information other than script
or The original season 3 Like I think I think
it's cool that they threw that in there is a
nod for us fans But the fact that they basically
just handed her a list of old episodes for information
leading to quote -unquote What is potentially
her father? That's lame. So it gets to yeah Okay
Before we close out, I wanted to pull up Cathy
Tregeaser, who plays Erica. The last thing she
