KARR and Good Knight's Work ?

The guy who played Cameron Zachary... doesn't he sound a lot like one of the guys who voiced KARR? I could swear it was the same guy... maybe?

The actor's name is John Vernon, who passed away in 2005. I never really thought he particularly sounded like K.A.R.R., though he did play some great television villains throughout his career.

K.A.R.R. was voiced by two different actors: Peter Cullen (who also voices Optimus Prime in the Transformers cartoon and movie) in the episode "Trust Doesn't Rust," and Paul Frees in "K.I.T.T. Vs. K.A.R.R.," who passed away in 1986.

John Vernon is most famous for playing Dean Vernon Wormer in the classic movie Animal House. I'm surprised no one brought that one up.

" THAT'S IT MAN, IT'S OVER...WORMER DROPPED THE BIG ONE....!" R.I.P. DEAN WORMER

" rrrrrrrrRamming speeeeeeeeeeed....!"- D-Day in the death mobile- Animal house

Yeh, he played a villain bent on making sure Michael Knight/Michael Long is -was dead or going to die.... which leaves the question.... how did KITT get outta there & down.... let's theorize this , students....

THAT whole scene was actually hilarious! Micheal jumps into apartment with car, gets out of car, immediately punches guy. LOL! Then when he gets back in KITT asking how they will get down. LOL! Just too funny! :D
