NBC Cancels "My Own Worst Enemy" - Page 3 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

This is unfortunate. I thought the show was entertaining and at least different. I watched several episodes of Knight Rider and found it to be a pile of garbage, figures it would get picked up for another season while the cancel My Own Worst Enemy.

This freaking sux man. This show is like a million times better than Knight Rider, and NBC is trying to revamp the whole show, but "enemy" is like 10000x better and they cancel it. WTF ?

That sucks. I liked the show. Their idea was one that I hadn't seen before, a split personality that can be turned on and off.

As for Knight Rider, I liked the original as a kid and even somewhat now as an adult. I can't stand the new show on now. Too many characters, the technology is not believable, the actors just plain suck.

WTF?!?!

I liked this show! Knight Romper.... I mean...POOR acting. Maybe that show lives because they don't do more than one take when shooting a scene...so it costs less. Whereas, when they do My Own Worst Enemy, they ACTUALLY TRY TO do a good job.

That is complete BS, man. Really....I actually watched that show.

Friday Night Lights was the best show on Television and they got rid of that. I recommend you all switch over to Cable and watch Californication on Showtime or True Blood on HBO. Great TV!! IMO of course.

I tried watching Enemy a few times. First episode was OK, but I lost interest in the next few shows. Usually fell asleep when it was on.

But I agree Friday Night Lights is one of the BEST shows on. It will be back on NBC around February. It has a 13 episode run on Direct TV first, then NBC will show those episodes early next year. That was the deal NBC made to keep the show going for a 3rd (but shortened) season. Tune in for it - excellent tv show.

That show was boring

Similar mistakes as: fat free oreos, butter free popcorn, washable permanant markers, the Jr Wopper.....

please feel free to add on.

We may not like the fact that KITT is now a Mustang, but they sure did a great job on the car. I'm a loyal General supporter (all my life), but I have to give credit on the Mustang GT500KR that is being used in the show.

Knight Rider

I can't remember exactly because I could barely get through one episode, but doesn't the car change into a Sporttrac at some point? What a load of $hit. We don't have alien organic computer technology like the Transformers. If they were using light sabers and using the force or maybe even saying beam me up Scotty, then I might believe the technology exists for the show's setting.

Val Kilmer's voice sux too.

Exactly. Knight Rider has to be the lamest show I've ever seen. I thought it was geared toward 10 year olds, but with the sex emphasis present in the past few episodes I guess not. The story line has HUGE holes in continuity.

It appears TV shows have to be "dumbed down" to the level of the average American ie "Knight Rider" (I could only handle 15 min of that show).

You hit the nail on the head. Most people are too dumb to understand a show like MOWE enough to appreciate it. LIFE is about the only other show I like on NBC. Heroes is OK, but it's too artsy fartsy for me.

headpunter · 11-13-2008, 06:06 PM

i am sad to see it go but i have to admit i had higher hopes for the show.

the 10pm slot is very hard slot to be successful in and i have seen many shows come and go in that slot.

I liked that show. Then again, I'm sure they had some social obligation to not promote cross-country road racing.
