I'm guessing cutting down on the transformations and using the stock Shelby more is saving them some cash. Either that or its a reaction to attack mode not being as popular as they'd thought. One thing that's been really spot on in the later episodes has been the Mike/KITT banter. The script writers have really gotten a handle on it now (something I'm partly attributing to having to juggle fewer characters). The AC/DC scene is definitely one of my favourites as well. If they do manage to get a second season, I'd definitely like them to revisit KARR. He showed a lot of promise so it'd be good to do something a bit more with him.

It wa snice to see Mike shine without his tricked out car, (And I loved him going to "Free" KITT to the tune of AC/DC's Runaway train) It was also nice to see reference to the Knight Foundation and the FLAG. KARR was good, but I agree, his reveal shoudl ahve been the end of Part 1 and Part II shoudl have 1) Existed and 2) been KITT vs KARR. I'd have kept him as a car until the battle started as he tooled aroudn ranting in his deathbot mode too much. Saying that, I liked when he took Torres, it was suitably nightmarish and gruesome, and I particularly liked KITT beating KARR using old school KITT gadgets like Ski Mode, grappling hook and turbo boost.
