With all the coverage about Michael Jackson's death in the news, I remembered this old picture of the Jacksons and their cars... and thought I'd share it:

Re: Comparisons with other spin-offs
How is Code of Vengeance techinally related to Knight Rider? Just confused about it under the spin-off section During Knight Rider 's second season, NBC were keen to cash in on its success and looked at creating a spin-off. One choice was Speed Demons , and would have focused on the Kelly Travis (J...

Re: Michael Knight in Team Knight Rider ?
Where did the producers "say" this? I'd like to know a source. I'm suprised you know about this and Michael Pajaro does not. He's like the biggest TKR fan out there that I know. No problem, I'm always happy to credit a source. Actually, the producers 'said' in correspondence with Mike Paj...

Re: So do any of you expect some new KR show decades from now?
I certainly don't think Knight Rider is dead. It'll be back, whether as a motion picture or TV movie, or maybe another series somewhere down the line. I don't think a straight-to-DVD movie is being unrealistic if the series sells well. Time will tell.

Re: Michael Knight in Team Knight Rider ?
Steve Forrest, who played 'Shadow' in TKR, was the same person who appeared at the end of 'Legion of Doom' as 'Michael Knight'.

Re: If you made a new KR show how would you do it?
I think the basic, core ideas of the TV Movie and this year's reboot were okay, but the execution was very poor. Having the new Knight Rider as the original Michael Knight's son is great from a mythological point of view and moves the story forward, but I would have preferred him to have actually be...

p.s. this location is not far from the El Mirage Dry Lake Those shots were most likely part of the material filmed by Wayne Fitzgerald intended for use in the opening titles.

Re: Knight Rider dvd edits
For the most part, the Region 2 sets are the same as the Region 1 versions -- missing Prince songs, same issues with sound effects (Season 3), and some cropped shots. The first season is slightly different... it includes the pilot episode as a bonus feature on the last disc, and there are no teasers...

I really liked that episode. It was very mysterious. The character Eduardo was the ideal villain.

Those scenes were a big part of the Original Series, and were a really cool way to introduce Michael and K.I.T.T. at the start of each episode -- you know: a crime is committed, then you cut to Michael and K.I.T.T. speeding down the highways to the theme tune. Goliath had it, Knight of the Drones, K...

As others have said earlier in this thread, Michael and K.I.T.T. were always presented as "buddies" -- it was The Lone Ranger and Silver (with the voice of Tonto :) ) in modern times. To give K.I.T.T. a female voice would have been too much of a distraction... think about the scenes when K...
