"The Knight of the Drones"
The sinister Asian restaurant owner running a scam in the back of his kitchen.
Michael calling his two henchmen the "Eggroll Brothers."
Airwolf was more racist.

shareI'm reminded of Lita Ford's memoir where she recalled Japanese fans referring to her as Rita.
shareIn the early days of the internet one could do business over the web easily and with smaller shops in foreign countries. I once bought an electric guitar from Japan and in the description it was phonetically expressed as a "Reso Poro". I had been seeing this term for months before I realized what it meant (Les Paul).

shareMore offensive, and extremely repetitive, is how in almost every episode Michael ends up in some hick town filled with redneck stereotypes including the corrupt sheriff and awful country music.
Come on, this show should've been flashy with KITT going after big city criminals to the sound of some hip electronic tunes.
I'm reminded of the below tweet: "i feel like this woulda been a *really* great show if it wasn't always trying to balance out all the ultra cool weird high tech pulpy parts of the show with michael bumping into folksy locals and hanging out at country music bars"
