- Knight
Rider - One man can make a difference," intones a
dying millionaire--well, one man and a superduper car, backed
with millions of dollars! Welcome to the deliciously ridiculous
world of Knight Rider, the early '80s TV series that launched
the career of David Hasselhoff and his magnificent coif (both
later seen in the insanely popular Baywatch). After being
shot in the face, detective Michael Long is revived as Michael
Knight (Hasselhoff) and partnered with an indestructible talking
car called K.I.T.T. (voiced by William Daniels). The duo travel
around the country solving crimes--basically, it's The Lone
Ranger with the car as Silver and Tonto combined. Supported
by finicky British executive Devon Myles (Edward Mulhare)
and sexy engineer Bonnie Barstow (Patricia McPherson), Knight
and K.I.T.T. take on everything from motorcycle gangs to corporate
crooks to K.I.T.T.'s own evil twin, K.A.R.R.
