Our Review

...I hold the Season 3 DVD! Review to come shortly.

This week, Universal Studios announced January 31st to be the street date for the Region 1 release of Knight Rider Season 3. Unfortunately the only extra will be an episode that has yet to be announced from Season 4.

TVShowsonDVD.com was the first to report this exciting news!

October 19:

Knight Rider - Season 3 has finally been announced, with the studio providing a January 31st release date. "Bonnie" (Patricia McPherson) returns to the cast after taking the previous season off...just in time to give K.I.T.T. a much-needed repair job and a technology upgrade as well. This set, which fans have been anxious for since last April's release of the second season, will sell for $49.98 SRP and come on 3 double-sided DVDs. The show will be presented in the original full frame video and with original English mono sound. Subtitles are in English, French, and Spanish.

Running just under 18 hours, this set has 21 episodes, including the double-length season opener "Knight of the Drones". Other hot episodes this season were "K.I.T.T. vs. K.A.R.R.", "Knight In Disgrace" and "Junk Yard Dog". Guests included the NFL's Jim Brown, plus Jared Martin, Terri Treas, Jean Hasselhoff, Jason Bateman, Alan Oppenheimer, Christopher McDonald, James Cromwell, Randi Brooks, Judy Landers, and Richard Herd.

If you live in the Region 2 DVD area, Knight Rider Season Two is now available! This set is on 6 single sided discs, and contain all episodes of Season 2. Like the US version, no extras are included on this set, and because of the data limit on single sided discs the trailers before each episodes have been removed.

Universal Home Video has also updated their Knight Rider DVD page; and if you check out their fan sites section you will still see a familiar site listed there!

It was brought to our attention by citizen_x on our forum, that TV Shows On DVD is reporting that Sci-Fi's Event Calendar is showing a December date for the Season 3 release of Knight Rider:

Knight Rider - Season 3 is one of those titles, and the SciFi.com events calendar is reporting a 12/06/2005 release date for it!

(read full article)

We too checked with our sources and they reminded us that unless the date is posted on Universal Studios website, that any other reports are not official.

**UPDATE** The release date has been removed from Sci-Fi's calendar. This could mean a few things a couple being - one the date was pushed back, or Universal told them to take it down because they weren't ready to release the information. We'll keep you posted.

A bit more emerged this week on the Season 2 release, that we've compiled it for our weekend update:

• The discs will contain no extra content. The only items that one might call additional is the previews for each episode will be before each episode. Futher seasons probably wont have extras either, but thats still up in the air, dependant on sales.
• Each episode will now have a chapter break after the opening credits. This will please those of you who were forced to watch the opening for every episode in Season 1
• The packaging has been changed from a "Digipak" style (what they used in Season 1, to three Slim Snapper Cases. Each case will contain artwork that also lists what episodes are on the disc inside.
• The season 2 box sets of A Team and Magnium PI will contain a Knight Rider episode as a bonus. No bonus episodes from any other series will be on the Knight Rider set.
• All 21 episodes will be on three double sided DVDs. The running time on each disc will be 6 hours and 31 minutes.
• It is possible that Sci-Fi Channel will air a marathon around the time of the Season 2 release to help promote the discs
