Battlestar Galactica and Knight 3000 scanner

I met "James" at the Knight Rider Festival in Vegas, and he mentioned something that I am embarrassed I never thought of before. We all know the Knight Two-Thousand's scanner was borrowed from Battlestar Galactica's cylons. Nothing surprising there, we knew it in 1982. But the connection I...

Here's a cool poster of a bunch of sci fi robots including our favorite. I am intentionally posting just a small thumbnail so you'll go to the actual website to take a closer look. On the site, you can click on the image for a much larger view that will let you read the legend naming all 28 robots. ...

Re: Las Vegas Car Stars - photos, video

A few notes as I try to import photos and videos... Catherine Hickland hoped to bring her own KITT to show, but it is in the shop with some sort of smog issue (silly federal regulations.) But she came out on her own and spent Saturday on Fremont Street. George Barris was there once again, and he rec...

Re: Kickstarter project with Justin Bruening and other KR al

The project got funded with a couple days to spare! So we'll be able to see Justin doing some fun action scenes again. They're still accepting backers to get some extra money, and it's a great chance for you to get DVDs, Blu-Rays, autographed photos of Justin, all sorts of things.

I was hoping for just a little bit of footage of Hoff on the Berlin Wall, but Knight Rider had its own short segment in the final episode "Super Power". Awesome!

The National Geographic Channel has a 3-night event covering the 80s starting tonight. I don't know if there will be anything Knight-Riderish on it, but it could still be interesting. And it's hard to talk about the fall of the Berlin wall without mentioning the Hoff, right? Here's the trailer: http...

Very loose KR connection on Cougar Town

On yesterday's Cougar Town, flashbacks show how whenever Travis's mother had to give him bad news, she would make a special day for him - even as he grew older. He rides one of those repainted KITT cars with the scanner still showing.

Re: Ten 'Knight Rider' Knock-Offs That Failed Miserably

It's an interesting list with a bad headline. The author may have disliked all of those shows, but many were not failures at all. Team Knight Rider was a moderate success for Universal because it did well in the international market. Airwolf was pretty much a hit for CBS - it ran for several seasons...

This Sunday is the fifth anniversary of the premiere of the new Knight Rider. Wow. FIVE YEARS?! I’m feeling a little nostalgic, and I have to say that for me personally 2008 was the most exciting time in the history of the fandom. When the original series was on the air, I felt I was a fandom of one...

Deanna Russo had a brief scene on Being Human last night. I'm not sure, but it seemed like they were setting her character up for a multi-episode arc (or maybe just wishful thinking on my part.) She's human for now, but personally I think she'd make a pretty good vampire. So hopefully she'll get bit...

I'll see you there! Glad to hear you're coming down. I assume you will be staying for more than just the weekend - you'll be kept busy during the Festival but there is plenty more to see in Vegas before or after the show.
