Knight Rider is back in High Definition on NBC!  This remake of the original Knight Rider, popular in the 1980's, is completely redesigned using the same concept.  The KITT car and driver interaction are the same, but instead of a 1980's Firebird the car is a supercharged Mustang.  Equipped with amazing features like grappling hooks, lasers, defensive flares, missiles, this super car a joy to watch. 

Now you can watch the above tv shows from outside USA!

Starring Justin Bruening as Mike Traceur, son of Michael Knight. Deanna Russo as Sarah Graiman, Traceur's old girlfriend and love interest. Sarah is daughter to Charles Graiman. Graiman is played by Bruce Davison, inventor of a new generation of KITT (Knight Industries Three Thousand), with voice personality by Val Kilmer.

This show is not anything like what you remembered from the old Knight Rider.  Lots of scantily clad women, high performance cars, amazing technologies, and genuinely impressive special effects make up this new and upgraded remake of a classic.  Well, not exactly a remake.  The original Knight Rider had story lines and episodes revolving around the 1980's era of technologically limited detective work.  The year 2008's Knight Rider caters far more to the modern day and age.  The Knight Rider concept was so popular in the 1980's, producers created a 2008 season to salvage one last chance at glory. 

The son of the original Michael Knight pilots a Ford Shelby GT500KR Mustang as the leader of a high tech government and law enforcement contractor.  Michael and his team of modern day associates tackle difficult crime assignments that usually get accomplished because of the Knight Industries huge financial resources.  This incredible amount of cash provides skill training needed to triumph over modern criminals. 

The story lines are pretty inventive and include a variety of modern day situations. As an example, one of the episodes centers around the acquisition of a serum that increases physical performance and genetic development.  The problem is, the serum is highly unstable and dangerous to consume. The KITT Mustang always provides helpful data in solving the crimes, an irreplaceable addition to the team's crime fighting ventures.  Unlike the old Knight Rider, the new cast is much younger and highly energized.  Overall, the program is great for the younger generation who missed out on the original Knight Rider.  There was only one new Knight Rider season and show production has been discontinued.  Future plans for the continuance of this Knight Rider series have not been decided.
