I am and always have been a big fan of knight rider. I recently made a web site full of parodies, this one merges knight rider with 2001: A Space Oddyssey. ([url]

The Simpsons did a Knight Rider parody at one point. I didn't get to see the episode, but apparently the gist of it is that Homer is watching a show called Knight Boat, where a guy named Michael drives a boat with KITT's scanner and AI. (Heh, I wonder if they might've been trying to reference Knight Rider and Baywatch at the same time.) KITT himself has also been featured in two Simpsons episodes (with William Daniels guest starring to do the voice). I don't know if he did the voice for Knight Boat though, as I haven't seen the episodes that feature it. However, for SG-1 fans, I did just notice that William Daniels's wife (Bonnie Bartlett) was the actress who portrayed Linea (the "destroyer of worlds") in the episode Prisoners where SG-1 is convicted of helping a criminal.

Wow I didn't know that was his wife. Thanks for the trivia bit!

Bonnie Bartlett was also Arnold and Danny Devito's "mother" in Twins. I think there and SG-1 are the only times I've ever seen her. I've never seen William Daniels anywhere but Knight Rider (and that'd qualify more as "heard"). I looked through his list of movies on IMDB and I've never seen any of them.
