I've seen many so called "Knight Rider" lists on KZbin - 99% of them contain some or complete factual errors. Since we're the world's leading authority on the show, we thought we'd give it a try and present to you 10 facts about the classic 80's show that you may not know (unless you are a dedicated viewer of this channel, in which case, you may know them!)

I was obsessed with Knight Rider as a kid. Never missed an episode. Got to the point where I could draw KITT in every detail completely from memory. In the UK, we don't often see many Trans Am's, although I did pass a KITT replica on the way to work one morning, complete with the pulsing red LED light. Tempted to re-watch Knight Rider with my 7 year old 👍

I built the first screen accurate replica of KITT starting in 1985 and finishing in 1989. A lot of people in the 'bulid it yourself" or turnkey KITT world are long aware of Louisell Enterprises in Michigan who began building & selling KITT components to those who want to build their own. The original KITT's had no working dashes LED's of the day washed out in daylight. I was told they used reflective tape in the LED parts that lit up when the movie lights hit them. They did have a couple of fully functional dashes set up on a stage to film and they could offscreen control the displays to get what they wanted to film for the show. You can tell these shots as they only show the dash straight on or from an angle that never shows the driver. Shot from the left like through the door window, you can see a telltale blueish white light filling that bit of the left corner of the windshield screen as well. This effect was used in both day and night. Mine had all working an ACCURATE dash and a nose scanner that had the correct fading light tail effect I'm told the originals did not have. That dragging 'tail' I was told was the result of the way TV cameras of the day filmed bulbs. Mine had working TV screens and screen accurate "batwing" or fighter pilot yoke steering wheel too. I had watched that show from when it came on for 2-3 years and wondered; COULD I actually BUILD that? I',m in Louisiana. To say those LEDs weren't just laying around is an understatement. But I built everything from the nose to the dash and entire interior. (One or two of the parts sellers even late as 2015 still sold my overhead between the "T" console and noted it was built by "Dwayne Larriviere") I visited Louisell in Mi in 1989 and even bought a TA from him to use once my components were ready. Mine would auto start by remote control and had the dashboard Igniter sequence and the two rows of lights beside the voice display that operated just as the TV one did. One thing different I have to say, I called Universal and the KR people when I was in the middle of all this and THEY claimed George Barris created the KITT car. I subsequently called Mr. Barris and spoke with him. He did CLAIM to have done the car, but he gave me little guidance on how to build it. And of course NOTHING was for sale. BTW: if you ask Rob Louisell he claims he will tell you in his talks on the origins of all this that before he did it it there was a 'guy in Louisiana who was doing it better than he was" I have him a steering wheel and he gave me one of his dashes which was really roundy curvy at the time. I sold my copy in 1992 to a guy who did shows at malls of TV cars in Canada. At the time when I advertised it NO ONE did this kind of thing (now you can buy a Batmobile. ALL versions of them) and if I had built three more KITTs I could have sold them like party favors.

41 years. Man, I can't believe it was that long ago. Best thing about BJ and the Bear was the Landers sisters. 😁 I was 12 in 1982, and Knight Rider was a got-to-watch every week. Now I work on automobiles and computers partly because of that inspiration. Nobody ever gets the extreme stress placed on a vehicle's driveline when they roll out the back of a moving trailer onto a roadway. Zero to sixty in no seconds to those tires.

There's another A-Team/Knight Rider crossover in the series Steven Spielberg's Amazing Stories. In an episode which featured a magical television set with a 3D button, which caused TV shows to come to life, Dirk Benedict playing the character of Face, is rescued by KITT. I'm surprised this wasn't mentioned in this video, as it was great coming together of two iconic 80's shows.

I've been a fan of Knight Rider since it first aired. It has given me a lot of great feelings growing up watching the show and all the episodes. Although I'm too old now to fall into and crawl out of one now, in my hay day I've been known to come home with a few in my lifetime. 10 to be exact. My first car I bought was an 82 Firebird. The styling is beautiful to me. The last one owned was an 89 GTA . It was my daily driver. Pass everything but a gas station ⛽. I appreciate the channel and ALL THE INFO. Thanks Joe.

In 1985 Nissan brought out the 300ZX and I can still remember the first time seeing one as a 12yo with the T-tops, digital dash and semi-concealed headlights. This thing was beyond futuristic in my young eyes. We never got the Trans Am in Australia and I thought then, this was the closest thing I would ever see to what could be a KITT. Even today I'm still convinced that in the 70s, Toyota based their Celica on the Mustang and Nissan/Datsun based their Z cars on the Fisher bodies from GM

You are correct that the Celica was based on the Mustang formula. Torquey engine,RWD, light body. Having the option of a hatchback and notch back. The Celica Supra later renamed just Supra in the US was to compete with the Z, Corvette, Porsche 944,928.

The only thing I was never able to determine because we didn't have a VCR at the time was how many lights were in the front scanner so I had to guess at 7.

Little bit of trivia, as this video mentioned BJ and the Bear. Similarly, as you are planning to have the names of the contributors to the Knight trailer put in the trailer, my uncle was part of the people who built a Kenworth K-100 Aerodyne, for the BJ and the Bear show. I do not know if the original hero truck was the one they built, but the one they did build was purpose built for the show. As they knew it was going to be for the show, all the builders signed their names on the inside of a panel somewhere...not sure which though. It was built at the Kansas City, MO plant.

When I said I did not know if it was the original hero truck, I meant that it may have been like a second season hero, one not used for anything destructive. I do remember one episode when the truck was driven into a building, which would not have been the hero truck, just one painted quickly to look like it. The truck my uncle helped build was a hero truck, but may have not been first season one...not the original. Of course there would have been insert trucks too.

I was a huge fan of the show Growing Up as a kid in the 80s. I even had the toy car and Michael Knight action figure where you push down on the license plate in the back and K.I.T.T. said a couple phrases from the show. Memory serves, that car was close to 10 to 12 inches long(?) and the Michael Knight figure was pretty big and it still fit inside the car, of course I could be mistaken as I was a kid and smaller back then so of course the car in action figure looked bigger to me.

Edit: Tried to byte my tongue but had to come back and say it: Tit for Tat.

This I believe is the first top 10 post on KZbin where I knew none of the top 10, and I am a former voice of KITT, for Universal Studios. Well done. They were a couple of lines could have used another check. I would welcome a top 10 per episode.

I'm from Germany and I visited the Petersen museum yesterday. I was very suprised to see one of your KITT cars there, because I thought they are not on display at the moment. Big thanks to you. So I saw the screen used KITT and the DeLorean time machine at the same time... what a wonderful day 😊 Btw, I also spottet the Comtron trailer during the Universal Studio Tour. Without your work I could not make those great experiences. Thanks you.

I'm -70's kid so I loved The Knight Rider. Luckily I found the whole series online so now I have all Knight Rider episodes plus extras. Also I was able to find original Battlestar Galactica series so I am lucky owner of that series too. Glen A. Larson was great with his brilliant ideas.

That would have been scary to think about, our pal as a Datsun??? I saw pictures of the train wreck before, it's funny one of the cars looked like it tangled with the Juggernaut!!!🤠 I couldn't help myself and had to rewatch this, the "Prototype" from BJ and the Bear has a dash from Battlestar Galactica's Recon Viper 1 AKA Cora😎

Well I thoroughly enjoyed this!!! Fun fact, my profile image is a 1:18 Hot Wheels built K.I.T.T which sits in my family room (among other Knight Rider and Back to the Future paraphenalia) The photo of the K.I.T.T model was taken in my back yard. I used photoshop to add the glowing scanner light ;-)

At the time was the new guy working at auto customizing shop and got stuck installing all of those LED light bar on everything from yugo's to trucks. Was so happy when that fad was over then the neon underglow started.

Watching the show and these videos is going back to my teenage years. The same four years the show was in production are the same years I was in high school. I would watch the show with my mom and uncle. The night "Knight of the Juggernaut" premiered, I was building a KITT model. In the early 90s I would watch the show again. And again now. My 11year old son really likes the show too.
