Nice find. I mean...truly inspired by KR is a real tribute.

Though, an LCD inset into the grill region sounds like a nightmare to maintain. The first semi that flings a rock...

There was one function I would have thought was too farfetched for KR called Molecular Flash where the driver and the car could pass through objects but that would negate the fun purpose of turbo boost which I couldn't live without in KR. Really??? There was serious talk about bringing K.A.M.O.'s p...

Erm...don't make plans to have a nap behind the wheel just yet. Here's why... https://youtu.be/r3AwNXZiZt8?t=1m43s At least in this early Tesla model, the AI will throw a dangerous fit. It literally stops the car in the middle of the street and refuses to go on wards. That can get people killed. I'v...

An interesting idea strikes me. What if a running sub-plot throughout the first season is a modern FLAG making plans on building a brand new, modern KITT while we have the traditional Trans-Am still in service. Now...there would be an active web site running for the fans to put in all their ideas in...

What's so strange to think about is with all the real life advances in technology, actually holding conversations with your car's AI may all so soon become not only a possible thing, but a regular thing.

Devon could really be a nosy boss, at times.

I was trying to remember how a quote between Michael and Devon went, right after Michael wasn't appreciative about Wilton's offer. Then the whole 'you just struck at a dying man' drama bit went down. Bet that Devon never did forget or forgive that moment. And probably had a kind of 'This stranger do...

Interesting. Lethal Weapon and Knight Rider are both products of action '80s. Plus, self driving cars don't have a lot of references to draw from. Still nice for some nostalgia references.

Just checked with e-bay and found one of those Conic pong consoles. Granted, it's a more complicated version with a light gun and is sold as sealed. Going for 129 EUR. (Translates to $160 and change.) That Q&Q King Kong has a listing for 79 EUR. (Or nearly a hundred dollars.) And nothing on the ...

Welcome to the KRO boards. Enjoy.

I believe you are correct on that memory. I, too, remember the derailment being 'later' and at a most opportune moment for the series.

Been a very long time since I've last re-visited the episodes. But, I can't be sure if KoTP truly had the most jumps or not. Got to remember that the first hour was all about Michael's transition. And Wilton's dream coming true...before he dies. Lots of story plot to go through before KITT is even g...

It's great that this show continues to run.

Believe it or not, Knight Rider 2010 WAS the continued adventures of Michael Knight and his faithful super car, KITT. We can only guess as to how...seeing how lawyers stopped that whole story line dead in it's tracks and somehow let the words 'Knight' and 'Rider' be the only things they got away wit...

That article really is amazing. One of the few KR things that I figured would forever remain science fiction . Imagine the possibilities. Super light weight cars that can resist denting. Super light weight space ships that could repel tiny debris. Fashionable bullet proof clothing for the unsafe wor...

I've actually forgotten about how PlayStations used different format discs for different amounts of data storage. Thanks to the DVD reading optics, the PS2 could take advantage of the higher DVD storage medium or the regular CD grade. And now that I am thinking about it, I do seem to recall having a...

Never actually seen a copy of either of those, as they were supposedly European only releases. (No idea if there is region lock out to deal with.) However, I have seen a video play through of...believe the first one. Got to say they had some really forced plots in it. But, were giving some fan servi...

There are certain vehicles that shall forever hold their sleek, desirable looks. The Trans-Am shall forever remain on that list. Datsun reminds me of a particular kind of look...as in being basic transportation. As in something you'd take to work or the grocery store...of a by-gone era. Not the kind...

Or go to e-bay. With these button batteries, I never go to a brick and mortar store, anymore. (Unless having them today is necessary.)

"The real Intellivision has hard wired controllers which have numeric keypads and the "directional disc". In the episode it looks like they are playing with the more common Atari style joystic." There are several ways to approach that technicality...the first of which being that...

My take on how those games existed inside of KITT was always more of a direct answer. (Especially for the 1980's.) They simply installed the real console hardware under the dash and wired up the RF into Kitt's circuits to be fed into the monitor. It must have been somewhat hard to swap games, though...

That is really amazing. Almost like a mirror.

No wonder the show had a few issues, keeping the cars from reflecting things that should not be seen. (Like camera rigs and crew members.)

MPPpaKJ0u1o Not only is this research project using Hollywood's age old illusion of a seat costume to remove the driver from sight trick, but look at that gigantic light at the top of the windshield and how it's operating.

Well, I was just joking. The grey hairs started popping in a few years ago, after all.

Old timers??? Aw...come on. It doesn't feel like it's been that long.

...well, I just saw that Batman animated turned 25. (Doesn't feel like that much time has passed.) Just got a few rounds of Pac-Man in, today. The years...are...

Alright. Statement withdrawn.
