Filming dates for pilot of TOS?

Post by Skav » Mon Mar 21, 2011 7:00 pm

Probably a question for Nick, really, but I'm curious to know when the pilot episode was filmed? What year and months?

I think it'd probably be more up the ally of Joe Huth or Paul Nuthall. :good:

Welcome aboard the Knight 2000.

Thank you. What's all this, it looks like Darth Vader's bathroom?

The Pilot was filmed from July 8-26, 1982, with additional scenes filmed August 18-19, & 26, 1982. This info is courtesy of Paul Nuthall at the Knight Rider Archive...so in a way we both helped you out!

Believe it or not, none of the Pilot was actually filmed in Las Vegas...it was all in the Santa Clarita/L.A. area.

Thank you, Joe!

And no offense intended to others, most of you have great knowledge of the show.

Wow, cannot believe I actually got specific dates! I was half expecting them to be unknown, and maybe given just the year.

Awesome! :good:

I guess that didn't leave much time to promote it considering how close it was filmed to being released, even though I have seen tv spots of it.
