Knight Rider's "Psycho" Halloween Adventure (Halloween Knight) (1984) (Manic Episodes)

[@themadoneplays7842]

Who wants a Knightwatching series? Only because more Hasslehoff Mitch voice is needed in this world :D

[@Tareltonlives]

YESSSSSSS

Maybe if it only covers the best episodes. I’d love to see more coverage of this show though

Continuing with the "let's use everything on the Universal backlot" theme, the dress the "witch" is wearing is a costume from the 1980 NBC Buck Rogers show episode "Flight of the War Witch" (played by Julie Newmar!)

My best friend moved to Holland several years ago and this summer I went to visit her. We watched a lot of youtube videos and at one point she turned and said "can we just watch the red head?" You have a new fan and I just really enjoy your content and sense of humor. Cheers!

[@joshnickerson83]

The greatest tragedy of the 80's is that we never got a Knight Rider / A-Team crossover episode.

[@LibraGamesUnlimited]

These days that would've happened within the first season or two.

[@MadTheDJ]

@@LibraGamesUnlimited These days, a mid-season episode of one would've been the pilot for the other, with a crossover each subsequent season.

[@LibraGamesUnlimited]

@@MadTheDJ I think that's more a CW hero thing. :)

[@1977TA]

Cross overs are only possible when individual shows exist in the same universe. There is no indication that Knight Rider, The A-Team, Fall Guy, Miami Vice, and Magnum P.I. existed in the same universe.

[@RandalBauer11]

11:17 They didn't even bother to take the Silver Shamrock logo off the Halloween mask...

[@lotus-prince]

I'd been wondering how this episode would play out. It looks like my wondering days are over!

[@Djinsin]

It's hard to believe that no one would take David Hasselhoff seriously after this show.

[@john1701q]

I remember this episode scaring the hell out of me as a child. The floating goblin head, I was terrified to go to the bathroom at night for months.

[@Lobisomen]

I never expected Knight Rider to be part of John Carpenter's cinematic universe

[@ShamrockParticle]

"If you build it, they will come" :)

[@nancycollins4109]

The Jack o' lantern mask is from HALLOWEN 3: SEASON OF THE WITCH. And the cape and suit the killer is wearing is from PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE. Also, the creator of Norman Bates, Robert Bloch, was a mentor of mine.

[@AllisonPregler]

Awesome!

[@tonlito22]

That time Mitch von Malibu saved people on land with the help of a car possessed by the soul of America's Second President, John Addams. "You'll find that was my save Mitch" "Pretty spooky, huh folks?"

[@JunAoi]

I recently saw most of the series when it was aired on Twitch. It was especially surprising how still entertaining it was because of the dialog and the Hoff s charisma.

[@JunAoi]

Edit: it was silly af and the plots were corny but I was entertained from the banter and weird humor.

[@shaner743]

Watching it on a station called Charge, haven’t seen it in years. It has its 80’s charm... : )

[@BronzeBoy520]

It’s not Baywatch, but it has the Hoff in it, so that’s good enough. Also fun fact about Knight Rider, the big bad of the show is David Hasselhoff with a mustache and a goofy voice.

[@U014B]

So, David Hasselhoff with a mustache.

[@Gasoline85]

Pretty spooky, huh folks?

[@LaNoLaCola]

Gasoline85 well it isn’t demon possessing Hasselhoff, then having a near death experience and seeing Stephanie's ghost scary

[@ottobaron6392]

So, did the Gorilla driving the car mean the Filmation Ghostbusters were involved?

[@ShamrockParticle]

LOL!

Either that or he stole it from Monty Burns

[@BlackAdam1231]

Lol

[@edisonlima4647]

Well... my mother christened me Michael especially after this character, so I probably should watch that someday....

*sees episode* Ohhhhhh please do Mitch voice please do Mitch voice... *Mitch voice confirmed* YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

[@JarionSilverblades]

"Trust doesn't Rust" is still my favorite episode of Knight Rider.

[@grandetaco4416]

I loved the parody mad magazine did on knight rider. In one scene you see Devin and Bonnie on KITS internal screen talking to Michel wishing him good luck on his current mission. It turned out the true reason for the call was it was the only way the characters stood a chance of appearing in the episode.

[@TemmiePlays]

DID YOU JUST DROP THE PARTY FREAK IN A REVIEW

[@marcushead9985]

...Patricia McPherson (Bonnie's actress) has very similar facial structure to Angie Harmon. Given the story you told about how Harmon was discovered by Hasselhoff for Baywatch Nights, it makes me wonder...

[@marcushead9985]

I looked it up and couldn't find anything, but it's possible.

[@earlofbroadst]

Holy cow! I never thought about that! That's a great theory! (And let's be honest here, it's pretty surprising Patricia McPherson's career didn't blow up the way Harmon's did.)

[@princesstamika]

wow i had never noticed that before

[@endlessnoise9173]

Kitt is played by William Daniels (aka Mr. Feeney from Boy Meets World)

[@dunes8817]

He also played John Adams in the movie version of 1776.

[@dngillikin]

And the Broadway stage version before the movie.

[@allanolley4874]

Personally I associate Daniels with KITT first, his role in 1776 is KITT organizing the American revolution, and KITT as school teacher in Boy Meets World...

[@endlessnoise9173]

Allan Olley Also Kitt as Dustin Hoffman’s father in The Graduate (just remembered he was in that movie)

[@Sophiec108]

Alison's unabashed glee and the wacky shenanigans of this episode are both glorious. *exagerrated chef kiss*

[@picard714]

Oh, Alison, how do I love thee?......for including the original NBC promo for the episode!

[@LaNoLaCola]

Whoa. This Baywatch Nights prequel is amazing!

[@Talisguy]

The Rear Window Plot ignores a pretty key detail from Rear Window's actual plot: the lead in Rear Window was a voyeuristic photographer who'd been stuck in his flat for weeks and had nothing to do to stave off the boredom other than spy on his neighbours and make shit up about them. I.E. he doesn't deal with murders for a living and is exactly the kind of person who would let his imagination get the better of him after seeing something mildly suspicious, so people not believing him makes total sense. IIRC, it's not even clear to the audience that his neighbour is a murderer until we're quite a ways into the film. It doesn't work when you know the character is definitely right about seeing something suspicious and the other characters have no reason not to trust them.

[@minski76]

Knight Rider. A shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a man who does not exist. Michael Knight, a young loner on a crusade to champion the cause of the innocent, the helpless, the powerless, in a world of criminals who operate above the law.

So happy you did this episode. I watched it recently to get myself in the Halloween spirit.

[@Tareltonlives]

I've been waiting for a Knight Rider episode for years! I'm so happy! And this is an AMAZING episode. It gets increasingly more insane as it goes on. Thank you so much for this!

[@purplegrant]

The gorilla costume with the big mouth is from "Trading Places"! (also a Paramount film)

[@OtherGonzo]

I just like to remind everyone that not only did Micheal have and evil twin, KITT had one as well, KARR

[@Tareltonlives]

That is amazing.

[@LibraGamesUnlimited]

KARR, what an original and well thought out name.

Isn't that the same Gorilla costume from Trading Places?

[@davidchisholm3657]

Love Knightrider and this is one of my favorite episodes despite it's flaw but you can say that about most of the show's episodes. I give credit for them putting in the silver shamrock pumpkin mask.

[@MyMagnificentOctopus]

It wasn't quite 80s enough just driving through a truck full of glass panes. He really needed to first hit a stack of empty cardboard boxes, then landed on a produce stand after going through the glass.

[@Tareltonlives]

All show's Halloween episodes should be more like this one.

[@AdamKNAC]

Does anyone remember the episode of _Knight Rider_ from the fourth and final season titled *Fright Knight* that guest-starred Robert Englund and was also filmed on the backlot at Universal Studios?

[@badman3000]

This episode looks good from a distance

[@rodrolliv]

I'll always be jealous of Michael Knight's hair.

[@tomattah_]

*please* do 'Knight Riding' when Baywatching is complete.

[@WineJam]

Love the emotional part "he talks to his car 80per cent of the time" lol

[@mateuszpawowski8139]

When you finish Baywatching, I guess around 2043, you should make a series on this.

[@starlimitz2]

Damnit, I was looking for an AVGN video, and then THIS pops up! Why haven't I seen this yet?! I'm finding the AVGN video first, BUT I'll be back!!!

[@Tareltonlives]

I love how the Mitch voice is used for Michael too.

[@DalekTheSupreme]

All I know about Knight Rider is that the car was voiced by Peter Cullen, the voice of Optimus Prime, in the pilot. Dude went from voicing one talking vehicle to another.

[@MrAlman8]

Great Manic Episode Allison! Bravo!

[@dwashbur]

I loved this show. In my 30's I had a wind-up KITT toy.

[@shawnconway6009]

So I guess this means more baywatching soon? And then once that's done, clearly a complete Knight Rider series of reviews.

[@AdamKNAC]

7:22 I never realized this before, but if you look very closely at the right-hand side of the scene you can see the person holding the camera in the mirror's reflection standing in the bathtub.

I'm not sure if I should love you or hate you for showing me where to watch "Knight Rider" for free... ....but I just greatly enjoyed the first episode with KITT's evil twin.... now, just ONE MORE - really, then I will go do something productive. For real. I swear.

[@JacobKaiju]

Allison, please do a review series on Knight Rider!

[@culwin]

It's amazing how many TV shows around this time targeted me, specifically, a 10-year old boy. I can't believe it made it past 3 episodes.

[@LibraGamesUnlimited]

It was the 80's there were all kinds of weird stuff that would probably get canceled quickly today. Of course, back then, there were only three major networks and so much airtime to fill.

[@mobius273]

Freddie freaker really cracked me up

[@TheBechtloff]

Did you know there was a Knight Rider game for the NES. And amazingly it's not bad.

[@ZombieVsShovel]

Have you ever watched Jack of All Trades? It starred Bruce Campbell and used to air as the part of the Action Pack with Team Knight Rider and Xena. It is gloriously ridiculous and anachronistic, seems like something you might enjoy

[@doctorhandsome]

I loved that show. I remember there was one where Verne Troyer played Napoleon.

[@GamesFromSpace]

I'm almost completely sure she already reviewed it.

[@MadTheDJ]

The haunting "Torgo Theme" fuels my nightmares to this day.

[@MyssBlewm]

I thought the witch drew a sun around KITT.

[@LibraGamesUnlimited]

Probably that doesn't look like a pentagram. Of course, I'm used stuff like this messing that up so I wasn't going to say anything.

[@montyr2083]

It was the height of the "Satanic panic" when this episode first aired; I doubt that they were comfortable putting an actual pentagram on network TV. A five-pointed sun was probably the best that they could do without getting S&P giving them grief. (Unrelated: I saw this when it aired, because I am an old person, and it is weird to me how much of it I remembered, down to the witch having a casserole at the end...)

[@LibraGamesUnlimited]

@@montyr2083 I was there. I remember all that. Actually, it is a very common mistake so I just assume they messed it up like so many others do.

[@carljackson1831]

One of my favorite shows :P

[@thisithis]

One thing you don't know was that the voice of Kitt on Knight Rider was also on the Doctor tv show St. Elsewhere as Dr. Mark Craig. And today he is known more for his role as Kitt then as known for playing Dr. Mark Craig on St. Elsewhere. And both Knight Rider and St. Elsewhere started at the same time, and St. Elsewhere had more seasons then Knight Rider and yet no one even remembers St. Elsewhere. I guess Knight Rider just aged better than St. Elsewhere, even that St. Elsewhere did a crossover with Cheers. XD LOL

[@DataCab1e]

It took me a second to recognize that 4th spinoff title card. I had almost completely blanked the most recent retread from my memory, even though I saw the whole train-wreck of a season, yet never saw 2010 and very little of TKR.

[@Redem10]

I'm going to have to need reviews of every weird Knight Rider spin-off
