Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The running gag of the two car thieves trying to steal K.I.T.T. was written, shot and inserted after the first cut of the pilot was seven minutes too short more
Goofs:
Miscellaneous: The copyright date at the end of the closing credits is wrong. It reads "MCMLXXVII" in Roman numerals, or 1977. The "V" should have been another "X," which would have given the correct date of 1982. more
Quotes:
Michael Knight: [on payphone in jail] What are we going to do?
Devon Miles: We? That's wonderful, a couple of days ago you practically drove over my foot to be on your own.

I remember when we eventually got our cable back in the mid-80's. Knight Rider came on our screens along with Airwolf and those other shows you also might remember well. I was a child and Knight Rider was fun, a car that actually can talk and think. Coool. Well, I strongly doubt I will be still as much impressed more than 15 years later, but it was really entertaining at that time.
