I just bought the first season of Highway To Heaven at the store at random at the store and was shocked to find out that it was only 10 bucks which is weird because the show was just released on DVD not too long ago, i think Amazon has the show on their for 30 bucks i use to watch the show on TV Land or Hallmark channel years ago but i have not seen the show since until 2 days ago i am already hooked to how amazing the show is, i only have a few more episodes before i watched the entire 25 episode i am entertained i cant wait till season 2 is released i will be the first guy in line to buy it, Knight Rider is a good show but nothing compared to a dramatic action comedy like Highway To Heaven in my theory, which show would you fans say is better Highway To Heaven or Knight Rider ???

That's like comparing apples and kiwis.

Regarding "Highway to Heaven"- this series was released to DVD some years ago- I believe the first 3 seasons got released. Of course, they were all unfortunately edited and so fans were quite unhappy with that. Recently, Mill Creek has rereleased Season 1 and it is totally uncut! Mill Creek has made known their intentions to release the entire series uncut, and their Season 2 DVD release I believe is coming out soon.
"Highway to Heaven" is a wonderful show that has Michael Landon starring as angel Jonathan Smith, who intervenes in the lives of people as he's on assignment for The Boss (i.e. God). It is a great drama. I would not call it a comedy, though it does have some comedic moments at times. I'm not sure if I totally agree with all the theology of it, but then I had similar concerns with "Touched By An Angel". But both of them are great shows that get across the love of God to people. And of course, as Romans 5:8 says, God demonstrated His love for us in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

And because of His Resurrection, when we put our faith in Him, we can have salvation!

As to "Knight Rider"- I love that series too. It's a great action series from the
'80s. (The 2008 series is not that great in my opinion. I just stick with the original classic.)
But this is quite a different show from "Highway to Heaven". Of course, I don't really get into comparing series that much anyway- not when it comes to shows that are favorites anyway. Both shows are good, so I love them both.
