NEW Knight Rider TV Series Preview...
Now we all need to keep in mind that this is a new TV series, a continuation.
So don't go getting the TV series confused with the Big Screen project, being
done by Glen Larson... the movie we are still waiting for. For now, we will have
to wait and see how things 'pan out' for the new TV series which debuted on
February 17, 2008.
So far the show has mixed emotions among fanatics.

Fan's Speaking Out To Hasselhoff...
Will David Hasselhoff listen to his original fans?

"Keeping the Knight Alive" is something most fans are striving to do.
Some have, or are, building their own replica car's throughout the world.
Talks of a "big screen movie" are what many hope to eventually see,
and hopefully will be "worthwhile" with David Hasselhoff in control.
Most fans have expressed an interest in the choice of vehicle,
in hopes to see the "original K.I.T.T. as himself", a 1982 Trans Am.
Some have stated, "Without the original K.I.T.T. leading the first half of
the movie would be considered unworthy!".
Although the fans are anxious to see the film completed, nine out of ten
have stated, "I would rather wait to see an original K.I.T.T. than to see
another 'Fast & Furious' kid's movie!" The fans stated they wouldn't mind
seeing a new transformation from the original K.I.T.T. to a more modern
day American sports-car.
"Well, only the majority who took part in Knight Rider while growing up,
can only Hope that the "life long dream" will live on through Larson's
new movie.", said one fan. In so many words, "Bring back K.I.T.T.!".
My question is, Will David Hasselhoff listen to his original fans?

Since it appears people really desire to seperate what is fact from what is
speculation, I have decided to give you a small glimpse at what to expect and I
have reposted a previous reply I gave in response to if this movie will be a
"reboot" or "continuation".
I am involved in this project and you can either call me a bold faced liar or
you could accept that maybe, just maybe, I might actually be telling you the
truth. There is a great deal I cannot say and will not say because of my respect
for Glen's privacy but this might shed a little more light on what you expect
vs. what you're going to receive when the movie goes into production.
Whether anyone else on the internet believes me or not, that is up to you to
decide. I am making this effort because I believe as a fan myself, you have a
right to know what is going on with this project that can be disclosed.
The movie isn't something as crude as a "reboot". It's more of a "reimagining"
of the series because unlike a "reboot" it will still retain the characters, the
original creator's vision, and the attributes of the original tv series.
Glen himself is writing the movie, it will be as Glen intended it to be not the
sub-standard, poorly written tv "movies" that Universal churned out behind his
back.
You must keep in mind that it would be extremely expensive to try to recreate
the 80s or 90s to "continue" the original series, not to mention that David has
done other things to exclude himself and most importantly of all, Pontiac no
longer will manufacture the original 82 trans-am.
You have to accept the inevitable fact that times have changed and in doing so,
you have to also allow yourself to accept that things that worked in the
original show will no longer hold up today (especially on the big screen) or are
simply no longer availible to access.
Universal attempted to continue the series once and they modernized everything
and you can understand what kind of a train wreck Knight Rider 2000 was, along
with KR 2010 and so on (Which Glen was not involved in). Glen doesn't want that
same mistake happening again.
Those of you who keep chanting to bring back David and William Daniels don't
seem to remember that it's not the star power that makes the movie, it's the
plot. Universal gave you what you wanted, minus the black car and look what
happened with that concept.
Unfortunately there will be no return of the 82' Pontiac Trans-Am. Those of you
who are devoted Knight Rider fans, should know the legal conflicts that Pontiac
put into place regarding the show's final taping and the sad destruction of the
cars used that followed. This is partially why the Trans-Am did not appear in
the consequent Knight Rider movies as well.
I can assure you there will be a worthy successor to the classic Trans-Am, it
will be black, it will have a red scanner, and it will not be named "KIFT".
You will see the the use of Turbo Boost, a new SPM, and some new abilities you
haven't seen used before.
