Thanks for the info. I couldn't find a detailed guide for that episode, but from what I gather, the remote control can bring TV images to life. Does that sound right?

It's been a few years since I've watched it, but a man named Walter buys a special television with remote control that can bring characters from TV shows to life. I remember it also features the Incredible Hulk, Pat Sajak, Ed McMahon, and a bunch of other people. KITT comes crashing through the wall asking if anyone has seen Michael. He then calls Walter a "boob" for not paying enough attention to his family. it's worth seeing!

Could somebody please tell me what "The Amazing Stories" is all about? Is it a TV show like Knight Rider? From what I understood, it's a TV show were a man uses this magical remote control to bring famous characters in his television into real life.
How many episodes have they done? What year was it first aired? How does Kitt and Michael come into the picture? Did it happen just once or did it happen in every episode?
Michael: Kitt what matters to me is who you are not what you look like. Sure we don't have the car so we can't turbo boost so we can't go over 200 miles an hour but it was all icing on the cake anyway

OMG! I actually remember seeing that when I was like three. I was too young to fully understand the story, but I do remember saying to my mom "Look it's KITT!" It's amazing what small things I can remember when I was little. :D

Knight-Armen,

"Amazing Stories" was similar to "The Twilight Zone" or "The Outer Limits" in that each episode had its own characters and storylines. This is the only appearance of KITT in the Amazing Stories series.

Sounds interesting, Joe! I wonder whether you could post us more pictures?

I remember that episode of Amazing Stories myself. I know that it could still be running on Sci-Fi Channel. It came on at a tiam when The anthology shows were making a comeback. it would air on Sunday nights a 8 P.M. Eastern followed by a new version of Alfred Hitchcock Presents at 8:30 P.M.

I think I used to watch that show but it's funny I never saw that particular episode or I'm sure I would have remembered it.

I would love to have KITT come to life! Only I wouldn't want him to crash into things. I think he'd call me a "boob" for spending too much time on the computer. You think? :)

You could use one of those temporary file hosting sites for it. Rapidshare.de and mytempdir.com
are good choices, although there are others. Do a Google for them, and see what you can find.

Cool! And pretty funny. I mean, no rock music in the background and those shock-rockers with clown-like makeup are playing guitars and moving like there's music. :lol:

Cool to see KITT in there though. :)

I think that girl in the blue dress who slaps Walter is the actress who played Liz Preston in "Fright Knight".
