Saturday Night Live had a fake commercial with a talking home coffee maker. It uses KITT's voice modulator. The skit should be available on Hulu by tomorrow. Link to come.

Here's the link. The fake ad is right after Jennifer Lawrence's opening monologue, about 11 minutes in.

It's geo-IP locked to USA only, just like the Hulu one. We don't all live in the good ol' US of A y'know!

In that case, the only way anyone outside the USA can see this sketch, is to either use some random proxy server,
a VPN, or download the entire SNL episode from an unauthorised source like torrents or usenet. Which seems too
much fuss to see one comedy skit (that might not even be funny) with a visual reference to Knight Rider.

Both shows are from NBC, could the VOX box have been made for the original series and is laying around in their prop department?

I would love to be left alone in a big prop warehouse for a few hours...

Your video, "KR VOX", may have content that is owned or licensed by NBC Universal. As a result, the video has been blocked on YouTube.

See. :lol:

I'll try it on a few other sites later.

It looks like a small CG voice box so it don't think they used an original prop for it.
