Acess interview: David Hasselhoff Reveals He Just Saw Actor Who Voiced 'Knight Rider's' KITT

(Video is about 13 minutes long.)

Since there seems to be a little bit of confusion, and I know there are some newer fans out there. The two actors did previously meet at the Christmas party for Season 1. But I'm happy to hear that they were able to see each other again. :)

Getting caught up.

Sorry there haven't been any new posts lately. Trying to improve my art and drawing skills have taken up a lot of my time as of late. (Edit: I'm hoping I can get good enough to attempt to draw KITT's voice box from either mid-S1, or S3/S4.)

I'm sorry to report that we have lost at least four Knight Rider alum, two were guest stars, and the others worked behind the scenes.

Bernard Fox, who played Commander Smythe in 'Custom K.I.T.T.', He was best known for his role in the series Hogan's Heroes. (He also appeared in the same episode of Soap as William Daniels.)

Dick Gautier, who played J. Gordon Baxter aka The Chameleon in 'Knight of the Chameleon'.

We also lost director Jeffrey Hayden (Seasons 1 & 2 & 4 - 'Hearts of Stone', 'K.I.T.T. The Cat', 'Diamonds Aren't A Girl's Best Friend', and one of my personal favorites, 'Sky Knight'.)

And finally, days ago Bruce Lansbury passed away. He was the brother of famed actress, Angela Lansbury, and helped to pen the episode 'Knight of the Rising Sun'.

Our condolences to their loved ones.

On to happier KR news.

Here's a fun KITT/Sonic crossover from LEGO Dimensions. The Knight Rider Fun Pack is being released this month.

Michael and KITT recently made an appearance in an AT&T commercial. (Unfortunately, their scene has been taken out in most broadcasts.)

William Daniels has a memoir coming out soon, titled, There I Go Again, How I Came To Be Mr. Feeny, John Adams, Dr. Craig, KITT, & Many Others. He recently posted dates on which he will be doing book signings, that you can find here on his Twitter page.

And lastly, Newsweek has done an article on Michael Scheffe and the cars used on the show. Click here to read it.

Again, I'm sorry for not posting more often. Hope everyone is doing well. <3

Also with his wife, Bonnie Bartlett. These two really are great in interviews they have together. To be married to the same person for that long, I think you'd kind of have to get along that easily. ;)

Forgot to post this sooner. Credit to the lovely Vespurrs for the find.

Benedict Cumberbatch Reveals Cheesy TV Obsessions: 'I Loved Knight Rider And Baywatch'

Instead of settling down for some sci-fi, Cumberbatch much preferred a bit of cheesy US drama when he was growing up:

"I never was obsessive about anything I watched when I was a kid, except maybe The A-Team and Airwolf," the star tells SFX Magazine.

"And I loved Knight Rider and then later Baywatch."

Who would've thought it!


I'm not very familiar with his work, but The Other Boleyn Girl is next in our Netflix queue.

(Wow, I didn't know there was a difference between geek TV and cheese TV. lol)

Sue and Mike from KRO have posted a two part exclusive interview with composer, Don Peake.

Part one.
Part two.

His music from the original series is still available for purchase:

In other news: (In case anyone hasn't heard.) On Monday, GM will announce that they're discontinuing their Pontiac line. Which is disheartening for many fans.

Let's hope GM makes it. And that maybe they can bring the brand back one day.

(Warning to fellow dial up users: The video is nearly seventeen minutes long. So it will take a while to load.)

Part Two coming soon!
