Knight Rider

Anybody looking forward to the new Knight Rider tv series starting this February. I got very nostalgic when I saw the teaser. I hope it doesnt suck like Bionic Woman.

This time around it is supposed to be Michael's son in the drivers seat. While the car looks freaking awesome theres only one KITT and thast the Trans Am!

I really didn't care for the original series so I won't be watching this all that much unless theres a hot babe.

I was hoping for a female hottie for Kitt's mechanic but it seems this new "Kitt" can fix itself.

A couple pictures of the cast.

Kilmer Voicing KITT in 'Knight Rider'
(FROM VARIETY) – Val Kilmer has been cast as the voice of KITT, the car in NBC's Knight Rider revival, which airs Feb. 17. The actor replaces Will Arnett, who had actually filmed all his parts as the car's voice, but then had to pull out due to contractual reasons. The problem lies in that Arnett does voiceover work for GMC Trucks, and because KITT is a Ford Mustang, GM asked the actor to step down. ''I was very excited at the prospect of playing the part of KITT in the new Knight Rider movie," Arnett said. ''However, because of a long relationship with General Motors as the voice of GMC Trucks, I had to respectfully withdraw from the project.''

The new Knight Rider centers on Mike Tracer (Justin Bruening), Michael Knight's son he never knew he had. David Hasshelhoff, who played Michael Knight in NBC's original 1980s TV series, will reprise his role for the movie. The story follows Tracer, recruited by his childhood best friend, Sarah Graiman (Deanna Russo), and her physicist father, Charles (Bruce Davison), as he joins the Knight Foundation, a group committed to mitigating damage done by private, covert military contractors. To help them achieve their goals, Charles creates a second-generation talking KITT car, which a shady millionaire tries to steal. NBC will air the two-hour telepic on Feb. 17 as a pilot, and if successful, the network could pick it up as a series.

I hope the girls and the car are worth watching the first episode.

I think they are doing a tv movie first and see how it goes. Then maybe they'll do a tv series.

Knight Rider still rings of the Hoff, so I won't be watching it, and OMG Bionic Woman did so not suck. 🙂

You have got to be kidding me, right? Lets hope he can stay off the piss long enough to film a single scene. 😆

yea it is a 2 hour mini-tv-movie. With the possibility of becoming a series.

hmmm..who are the cast of this new Knight Rider?

If The Hoff really is going to be in this, this will not be a good thing. Also with them changing voices that really isn't a good sign either. Isn't the male lead soap opera actor?? 🙁 😮 😕

Well at least they are starting small by making a tv movie first and see what kind of reception it receives. Then again, Ive hardly seen any advertisements for it, I wonder how many people are actually aware of this movie.
