Re: What episodes DON'T stand the test of time?

This doesn't quite fall into the same category, but I want to mention Sky Knight: would they make that episode today? We think of hijackers a LOT differently now than we did in the 80s. Enough time has passed that they could do the episode today, but I bet in 2002 they would have avoided it complete...

Re: What episodes DON'T stand the test of time?

I think I have one: White Line Warriors.

A radio DJ plays "Crumblin' Down" when he knows the cops are busy chasing street racers to notify burglars that "the coast is clear" for the robberies.

Today, he would simply send a text or post a coded tweet as a signal.

KITT vs. KARR slot racing set

There's a new Knight Rider toy out and it's pretty cool: the Knight Rider KITT vs KARR racing set from auto world. raceset.jpg It's a little intimidating when you first open the box, but assembly was pretty quick and straight-forward. In my excitement to get things up and running I accidentally drop...

Knight Rider Top Ten lists

Tonight is David Letterman's last show. Nobody did more to popularize the concept of the "Top Ten List" than he did, and we've certainly made plenty of lists ourselves in the Knight Rider world. To honor Dave, here are some of the Top Ten lists we've discussed: Top Ten Iconic Hollywood Car...

William Daniels talks about how he became the voice of KITT

You don't hear William Daniels talk much about Knight Rider, but the A.V. Club interviewed him about his long and successful acting career and fortunately for us they asked about Knight Rider. I really like the idea that Daniels refused to make KITT sound more robotic. http://www.avclub.com/article/...

Vote for KITT in Fox Sports elimination bracket

Fox Sports is hosting a coolest car elimination bracket, pitting pop culture cars against NASCAR. KITT made it to round 3, after beating Disney's Cars and then Talladega Nights. But now KITT's in a bit of trouble: he's up against the General Lee. And the NASCAR audience is favoring the General. So l...

Calling the Foundation "pathetic" or pointing out the number of replies in a thread has nothing to do with the recasting issue. It's just looking to create problems. To their credit, no one from the Foundation took the bait by coming over here and fighting back with more name-calling. I th...

You're right.

Twitter is great for all the quick updates b...

I apologize, I should have spoken up in this thread earlier. In general, I don't think it's appropriate to bring conflicts with other groups to other boards.

KITT in new music video

Vim Cortez has a new video with a LOT of KITT footage. I think it was filmed in France and I don't know anything about the replica yet, but they did a decent job with a lot of the action scenes.

Now you've got me obsessed with the red car too, jup!

While I don't think the Knight Rider 2000 production team used the pictures as their guiding force for the new car, I'm happy to go along with retconning it to say that withing the fictional FLAG world! those are early KIFT designs.

Cafe Press lets you personalize anything and there are already some Knight Rider baby clothes available. The quality may not always be great, but the novelty may be worth it. Just be sure to post photos if you do buy something!

Not a great shot, but I think the car in the background is what people think is the Knight 4000. It looks very very different to me.
