Re: Navtones press release for Knight Rider Festival

I have purchased from navtones.com the Garmin KITT voice (William Daniels) yesterday. Took my GPS for my first ride today with the new voice! While I enjoyed KITT guiding me, and especially the humor when I intentionally went off my chosen path ("Paul, it seems that I am not getting through to ...

Re: Fall Guy Truck Spotted in KR

The truck in the above Knight Rider scene has vertical square headlights and a three-tiered grille. Though the photos of the Fall Guy truck show a similar rounded hood decal, the truck has circular headlights and a different grille without the tiers. Like Bandit stated, it's not the same truck. Just...

Re: FLAG mobile unit - screenused miniature- revealed!

The miniature KITT is awesome!! Love reading this thread. :D The "Camaro" interior suggests that Jack's KITT was based on the 1/8 scale Monogram models. Do we know that this is the case? I know that Monogram came out with a plastic model series in 1/8 scale that included a maroon 1982 Cama...

Re: Most Shocking KR Moment

I would have to say that it was Michael in front of a firing squad in a Season 4 episode. I was 14 years old and watching the original airing on NBC. Michael would be shot and fall to the ground sideways, and then the commercials would come on. That was among the most genuinely shocking KR moments, ...

Re: Why my car is better than KITT

Wait, KITT *has* a glove compartment. I remember that, in the episode where Stevie leaves the necklace for Michael, Michael retrieves the necklace from KITT's glove compartment. (I'm going by memory here.) Then KITT asks why did she leave the necklace for you. Michael replies that an old friend gave...

Re: Live Discussion Thread: Knight of the Iguana

I liked the episode, but please tone down the scantily-clad women and put more focus on the Mike-KITT relationship! I thought the writers could introduce a new technology similar to a stealth cloaking device, which would make the car and its occupants invisible to outsiders! This would have been an ...

Re: Live Discussion Thread - Journey To The End Of Knight

I am hearing-impaired and use my eyes to supplement the residual hearing I have left. That being said, while I can hear the characters' voices, I can barely hear KITT's voice and thus must use closed-captioning to determine what KITT is saying in a scene. Not to critique Val Kilmer's voice, but I wi...

Re: Can someone animate this scanner for me?

Awesome scanner effects on both cars!! I'll be proud to show friends the new home page for more on the series when it debuts later this month. Just a minor critique, but the rear tire on the old K.I.T.T. seems to be slanting inwards slightly. It would take a master artist to correct this, if needed!...

Did anyone here catch that the homosexuality mention might be a nod to the classic series? I mean, how often did we see Michael Knight in trouble and he would talk into his wristwatch, "KITT, I need ya, buddy!" :D :D :D

funniest moment

I think one of the funniest moments, at least for me, was near the end of a specific episode, when Michael and Bonnie catch the bad guy but find their jeans/pants covered in tar or mud. KITT says that they would have to clean up before getting inside the car. Michael and Bonnie then start walking to...
