All in all, i prefer the early series. The reason is simple:

The early format for Knightmare was like a Televised Computer Boardgame, almost like HeroQuest (if anyone remembers that) and the airbrushed scenes looked very much like cardboard rooms. I liked the way the dungeoneer would walk through a door, and as far as we knew, the next room could be anything. The later series - 5 in particular - are WAY too linear.

I first started watching KM when S4 started, but i remember catching a bit of S3. Even aged 6ish, I thought that the older KM i had only briefly seen was way better and far more scary.

Later on, many of the "hated" features of the new format began to work well, S6 in particular as it was tension filled and really gripping.

I dislike S5 as the outside locations are too "normal" (i thought the previous purpleness was cool as it reassured us that this was a different reality/time/place. Also S5 really over used the eyeshield, in S4 and the later series it seemed to be used sparingly, when a player leaves a room. In S5 entire scenes are through the shield

One room that i for some reason remember very strongly was one that i think was only used once.

It appeared when a teams quest was put to an end by that thing called the Dreadnought. The room was like the ruins of an abbey.

It was so blatently obvious the team was going to die here, as the room appeared to have no exit. - theres a photo of it somewhere on the Knightmare website.

Also, im pretty sure i have visited those ruins in real life:)

lol PEOPLE WILL SEND ME EPISODES?

the clips are not enough:) i mean....haha,,,well you get the idea

Velda -hmm i actullay dont watch that much TV.

Although if Knighmare was on .....i wouldnt go out for like a month hahaha

hmmm well ive never had cable/sky etc......

i really remember a time  when the latest series (say...6) was shown at the normal time, and old series were shown on like saturday morning kids TV.

This was so long ago i may be mistaken.

But yeah, i remember series 3 but that was in 1989....theres no WAY i watched Knightmare age 4

yah...im good lol

i really didnt know that so many people my age remember Knightmare

Hi, yeah im 19

I really need to see knightmare again. Its not fair:(

back in the day, i cant recall seeing the real early series (1 2 3 maybe 4)

But i strongly remember the mine cart ride and now the early ones were always "inside"

I think they must have reapeated the old series when the later ones were still on TV

Hey everyone.....yes im new here......

just thought id say that im really happy that I stumbled upon knightmare.com!

I miss knightmare so much,,,ill never forgot the day that it just ended.... i was about 8 or 9. It was a really important part of my life back then.
