Yes you are not dreaming. 152 episodes ! Superknight the webmaster of http://www.knightriderworld.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ( or KR-world for the friends ) with my help,had a little phone interview with Yves marie maurin (michael's french voice) and he was surprised by learning that only 90 eps were aired. he confirmed the number of episodes which was written on his contract. So what ? where are those episodes ?

Re: Lost episodes ?
Yes I confirm, I have called Yve-Marie Maurin and he said he was the voice acting for 152 episodes of Knight Rider (and season 5 episod too).
So, why NBC don't diffuse this episodes? Can we see it now? How?

Re: Lost episodes ?
Surely that must be a big mix up, they wouldn't not air that many episodes and if they did I'm sure we would have heard about it before?

Re: Lost episodes ?
the question is : Where are those 60 eps ?
Re: Lost episodes ?
Hello so what Cam Knight and Super knight are trying to tell you is there 152 Episode of the original Knight Rider. The source is coming from Yves Marie Maurin (Voice Actor who played Michael Knight Voice in French Version). Mister Maurin has already told this information in a convention but also SuperKnight Got the guy over the phone to get another confirmation from Mr Maurin. So there 152 Episode in total but only 90 Where broadcasted.

Re: Lost episodes ?
WOW, that is weird.........
Maybe they found out late that the show was going to get canceled and they had the contract already written assuming a season 5.
The only strange thing is that George Barris who is a very close friend of mine who as we all know designed and built the SPM cars was under contract as well to build the newer cars.
He only delivered three but I should ask him again as he would know.
Also when I was looking at the E-Bay listing of the car that know own, in benchwarmers they had Adam Sandler as the "funny man" but again as typical it was Hollywood preliminary.

Re: Lost episodes ?
Yeah, this is obviously a mix up of epic proportions on that fellows part, as losing sixty two episodes, which would equate to almost three complete seasons, is quiet simply impossible I’m afraid.

Re: Lost episodes ?
This maybe something to talk about in the future as episod-X, something like the X-Files. it will be really strange if turns out their is an extra episod that no one knows about

No because DH don't apear in TKR so YMM don't work in it.
Today I phone to Guy Chapellier (french KITT voice) to have a confirmation.
Post Scriptum : if Victor Kros can contact Glen Larson that could be cool to confirm too!

Re: Lost episodes ?
This information (according to Larson) is entirely false. There were 84 episodes of Knight Rider that aired but there were countless scripts (mostly drafts/revisions) that were not actually shot.
Knight Rider Legacy goes into detail about three episodes that were unproduced: The Wind Devil, Girls' Knight Out, and The Deadly Prize.
It makes absolutely no sense to just "hold back" 60 episodes, especially when NBC was obessive about budget concerns - there is no way they would just leave episodes in the can or really shoot scripts that they suspected wouldn't work out in production.
Glen confirms that if so many episodes actually existed he would have had a paycheck given to him for EVERY ONE of them since he is entiltled to be compensated for every episode of every attempted series for Knight Rider, despite the fact he moved on to other projects. So really the only guy who is claiming this is Yves Marie Maurin.
Unless he is going to actually post to you a list of every episode name that he worked on, I don't see this claim having any validity to it other than some sort of misunderstanding on his part.

Re: Lost episodes ?
I'll let Joe Huth field those questions, it would be unfair to answer them given that they were exclusively covered in his book which makes him the perfect man to ask about it.

Re: Lost episodes ?
Yes, it is certainly about an error of understanding on behalf of Yves marie Maurin. That is why we posted here on KRO to announce our surprise. Thank you for your answer and for the initiative of Victor.
I waits however always for the answer of Synchro-France to have a confirmation and a list of the number of doubled episodes.
See You

Re: Lost episodes ?
It would be interesting to see these unproduced episodes being realised as either fan-ficVictor Kros wrote: Knight Rider Legacy goes into detail about three episodes that were
unproduced: The Wind Devil, Girls' Knight Out, and The Deadly Prize.
or published scripts. OR ... (this may well be a somewhat controversial idea to some KR
traditionalists) ... if NBC commissions a second season of new KR, perhaps the scripts
could be somehow adapted to become actual fully produced episodes.
Eitherway ... would the original makers of these unmade episodes still be appropriately
credited for their original work being realised for new audiences to appreciate them?
