Are You Ready For More Knight Rider?
NBC has announced Justin Bruening (All My Children) is set to star in an upcoming 2 hour movie version of “Knight Rider.” For those who don’t know of the show, it was about a man named Michael Knight who basically played a vigilante hero/spy along with a computerized talking car named Kitt. In this new movie Bruening will play the son of Michael Knight. It’s not known how updated Kitt will actually be, or whether Kitt’s nemesis Car will make an appearance.
Since going off the air, the show has been revived a few times, with the TV movies “Knight Rider 2000” and “Knight Rider 2010” as well as a failed series “Team Knight Rider.” It’s unknown, but speculated, should the movie do well that it will serve as a pilot for a new “Knight Rider” show.
Again…really? Well I hope by the end of the writers strike they have taken some time and gotten some originality. As a child of the 70’s all the re-makes are a nice touch but if your not going to follow the original plot CALL IT SOMETHING ELSE.

I hope they don’t change Kitt. It would be sad if it was a different car/voice.
