Knight Rider is back from the 80's

Bringing back Knight Rider was a wise choice. I didn't watch the original growing up, but I had a friend who did and she and the original K.I.T.T got me into watch it. I became a fan 2 months before the 2 movie came out. I wasn't happy at 1st with Justin Bruening taking over the role of being the new Michael Knight, but I grew to like Justin and all the other cast. Today Knight Rider was awesome. K.I.T.T was awesome has he can change into the different cars and do different things. I love how Justin could just take whatever he wanted to look at and move it across the dashboard. "Fight Knight" was my less favorite to watch. I only watched it if I had too. My favorite are "Knight Fever", "Knight Of The Living Dead", "Knight To King's Pawns", " Knight In The City, and "I Love The Knight Life". Its always fun to watch the episodes over and over. I just hope someday down the road we get our 2nd season.

Weather your a fan of the original or a fan of today go out and buy this Knight Rider box set. It is to buy and to hold cause we have no idea if we are getting a 2nd season and a 1st season is to hold onto a life time.

James Bond Meets Nash Bridges And American Muscle

My family and I were extremely disappointed at hearing the news that the Knight Rider TV show is being cancelled by NBC for the Fall 2009 season.


This is an excellent show and only one of the few TV shows that we watched regularly during Fall 2008 and Spring 2009. Love the characters, high tech sci-fi themes, great action plus light humor and romance, as in James Bond meets Nash Bridges, and not to mention one of the coolest American cars ever built, the 2008 Mustang GT 500 KR with AI and Attitude (thanks to the Ice Man...Val Kilmer)--it's a WINNER in my book.


We absolutely Love this multi-generational show. It's quality TV entertainment....right up there with 30 Rock, NCIS, and even Dancing With The Stars, although they're all quite different types of shows.


I can't help but think back to the 1960s during my teen years and remember NBC cancelling another Great TV show after four seasons--Star Trek. NBC, are you sure you know what your viewing public really wants? Please reconsider your decision and bring back our Knight Rider!
For the time being, until the TV execs. can figure it out--this DVD set offers fans a Great collection of the Knight Rider 2008 movie pilot and 16 episodes!

Knight Rider's KITT most popular TV car of all time

The black 1984 Pontiac Trans Am, driven by Michael Knight, played by David Hasselhoff, received 24 per cent of the nation's votes.

Del Boy's yellow Robin Reliant from Only Fools and Horses came a close second with 20 per cent.

Marty McFly's time-travelling DeLorean, driven by Michael J Fox in the Back to the Future movies, rolled in third with 16 per cent.

Meanwhile, Starsky and Hutch's Ford Torino came fourth followed by the Batmobile, both with 14 per cent.

Herbie and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang came fifth and sixth, with eight and four per cent respectively.

The US series Knight Rider starred Hasselhoff as Michael Knight, a former policeman recruited by the 'Foundation of Law and Order' to fight crime.

Talking supercar KITT - which stood for Knight Industries Two Thousand - was famed for its turbo boost mode allowing it to leap over obstacles at 300mph.

Tom Evans from MSN Cars, which carried out the survey, said: "KITT enables you to play the hero - with his loyal personality and often sensible advice, he's above and beyond just a cool car, he's a modern man's best friend."

The nation's best loved TV cars are:

1. Kitt, Knight Rider - 24 per cent

2. Del Boy's Robin Reliant, Only Fools and Horses - 20 per cent

3. The DeLorean, Back to the Future - 16 per cent

4. Ford Torino, Starsky and Hutch - 14 per cent

4. Batmobile, Batman - 14 per cent

6. Herbie - eight per cent
