Trivia:
Glen A. Larson borrowed the idea of K.I.T.T.'s hood mounted scanner from one of his earlier projects, 'Battlestar Galactica'. The Cylon Centurions in that series had an almost identical scanner that functioned as eyes, and Larson adapted the idea for K.I.T.T. Also, originally K.I.T.T. had a square red light on the dashboard that lit up as he spoke. His more familiar 'voice modulator', with three red lines broken into cells which went up and down as he spoke, was introduced half-way through the first season.

Goofs:
Audio/visual unsynchronized: The "tires screeching on pavement" sound effect is often added while KITT is peeling out on sand or rounding a corner on sand/gravel/grass. Screeching sounds would certainly not be heard while driving on such surfaces.

Quotes:
Michael Knight:
[repeated line in the series, while using KITT's video monitor] Yo, Devon!

I've sat here and I've read a lot of comments from people about the TV show KnightRider and there are a several from people who talk down this show. My thought is you have to remember when the show was written okay it was written in the 1980s oh wow that should give yourself a clue to how the stories were written.... Now myself i grew up on TV shows like KnightRider, The ATeam, The Fall Guy and i loved to watch them every time they were on. some of you guys act like you have a car just like KITT in your very Driveway which even after all of the years that have gone by they still haven't came up with a car as close to that one portrayed on that TV show. some of you think that those stunts were simulated ha ha ha. iam sorry but what era are you from the 1999? back in the 70s and 80s CG was not yet thought about people they did real stunts with real cars some equipped with special roll bars and struts to protect the stuntman. Plus if you don't like the show don't watch it but you don't have to sit there and run it down. David Hasseloff was and is in my personal thought a very good actor. and for some of you who have written in here trying to pass yourself for someone from that era people really liked having big and outrages hairdos back then just like people like to have every part of there body's pierced from one end to the other today. it goes with fads okay if you think the 80s were bad tune into the 70s you haven't seen nothing yet okay. now that i have tried to put a few of the party poopers in there place i will go on and say that i love the KnighterRider series and it brings back a lot of fond memories for me for when i was a kid! i still watch them on TV or actually DVD now since i don't hardly catch them on TV anymore. Kitt and Michael were a great team their relationship was really great there are times i wish my car cared about me like KITT cared for Michael. especially in bad and inclement weather. And Really how many of you out there haven't ever gave your car a name now come on! you have no imagination what so ever! If you sit there and knock every great TV show that ever hit the airwaves. well thats all i have to say on the subject everyone out there take care!!!!!
