Something influenced by Knightmare, but clearly set apart and new from the original would be safest.</p>
<p dir="auto">Anyways the David Rowe book on the way, convention, challenge tv repeats, geek week and Knightmare live rolling until Nov, a noble victory at sea for this website and a great achievement.</p>

<p dir="auto">What I do like with the possibility of an adult show is the potential for harder puzzles, not that they were ever easy mind you.</p>

It has about a 98.3% approval rating, last time I bothered to check.</p>
<p dir="auto">And of course, the recut version is far better.</p>
<p dir="auto">So I think an adult version would be fine.</p>

I am a bit surprised at no network is interested considering how unique and different KM is to what's in the market now, but then it's a risk I guess and media people don't tend to take risks.</p>
<p dir="auto">Oh well, more reality tv, cooking shows, antiques, property programs and Gardening it is then</p>
<p dir="auto">Perhaps a show with adults will appeal to a wider audience.... OR there's no reason it couldn't be mixed? (a team of both)</p>
<p dir="auto">If they want something new than I can't see KM having any future, even with adults it's still the same sort of thing, and changing it anymore it becomes a completely different show altogether.   As I keep saying, nobody really knows what the future will hold.</p>

<p dir="auto">Well, no, because the networks don't want Knightmare.  They're all well aware of what Knightmare is/was and they don't want it.  They want something new.</p>
<p dir="auto">And as I've said before, they're not interested in children's game/adventure shows.</p>
<p dir="auto">So a new pilot is needed, with adults.</p>

<p dir="auto">Thing that annoyed me the most with the Geek week were some of the camera shots, kept showing the advisors reactions to things but not showing the viewer what on earth was going on in the room.  lol</p>
<p dir="auto">But the added wall monster and puzzle room certainly added a lot to the original released footage, made it feel more like a proper adventure.  It's a pity they had to cut it down to 20 minutes or so, a real shame they didn't do it as a two part thing instead, would have been truer to the spirit of the show.</p>
<p dir="auto">Oh well, we can only look onwards.</p>
<p dir="auto">It's out of our hands really.</p>

<p dir="auto">Still a few weird editing errors though - notably the 'put the spyglass down!' bit.</p>

<p dir="auto">It was nice to see it wasn't forgotten. It was just on the bland side. But for what we got it was okay.</p>
<p dir="auto">I apologise for coming across unappreciative. (If that's the right word)</p>

Maybe that was down to the circumstances it was made under or the short shooting schedule, or the contestants themselves.</p>
<p dir="auto">Plus Treguard has more authority and a true purpose when dealing with kids.</p>
<p dir="auto">I just see it as a bit of a novelty really.</p>

<p dir="auto">I disagree. You only have to look at the geek week episode. With a few tweaks I think it could work. The kmvr approach would definately not work but the geek week episode showed how it could still be done.</p>
