If you havent seen this actor in action then take a look at some of the episodes from "Supernatural". He is the perfect choice for the replacement of Michael Knight.

I've liked his work since he was on Dark Angel as the smart assed Alec in the second season (or maybe his appearance in the first season as his psycho "twin" Ben) as he and his character were one of the few high points of the season but I think Justin Bruening is a better choice when it comes down to KR and the direction they'll be going. With this being a continuation of Knight Rider he looks more like he could be his son since he does at least resemble Hasselhoff a little bit, though okay that doesn't make sense in a genetically but still, he's more fitting. Only strange thing at least to me is his voice as he has one of those voices that sound younger than he is, I'm not one to talk about the voice since I'm in the same boat, it's something I'll get use to. Besides Jensen Ackles is busy with Supernatural.

Hey there's always the reboot, he might fit better with the feature film.

I suggest taking a look at this clip from youtube to see Jensen Ackle's acting style.

Frankly, I think Jensen Ackles looks like "some random guy off a chick t.v. series like Dawson's Creek."

Which is even more funny when you take into account that he actually was some random guy off the chick TV series that was Dawson's Creek. :lol:

He did Dark Angel first though. :D Then again, he apparently was a part of Days of Our Lives also, so the noon soap opera tradition could continue! Though he's not coming right off it like Hasselhoff and Bruening.

Then again he appeared in an episode of 7th Heaven *vomits* that precedes his role on DA by several years, he played the major, all important role of "Halloweeen kid #9"....

hmm I don't know, he's a little too good looking, I'm kind of attracted to him, despite preferring girls, not that there would be anything wrong with that! Actually speaking of which, you know who makes me question my sexuality is that dude who plays Green Arrow on Smallville. lmao....nah he would probably be ok. I like Lady V's choice of the guy who plays Superman on Smallville, I forget his name. But he would be good for Knight Rider. :) Not as good as Will Smith though. ;-)

I dunno, I like Welling, but his acting can be rather wooden.

Or "Smallville."
