Courthouse Square (Let's see who knows their stuff!)

While watching Gremlins last night, I noticed that the set looked a lot like the Back To The Future courthouse set. I looked it up on Wikipedia and sure enough, it was. I was surprised to see that Courthouse Square was also used as one of the sets for the Knight Rider series.

So, who can tell me where and when?

check out the 3rd season episode Sky Knight and the 4th season episode Fright Knight..that episode was more or less filmed on the universal backlot..look for the scene when Micheal is talking to Devon driving thought the square..if your quick you can see the clocktower from BTTF in a stage of dismantling.as this episode and BTTF were filmed the same year('85)the tower may well be being changed for another production...

I replied to this earlier but my phone died before being able to press submit. It was Sky Knight, I think, when Mike and KITT are battling the military. That road looked awfully familiar. I think even the church from the first film was there!
