Knight Rider is an American action crime drama television series created by Glen A. Larson that originally aired on NBC from 1982 to 1986. The series was incredibly popular during its run and has maintained a cult following for decades.

The show follows the adventures of Michael Knight (David Hasselhoff), a high-tech modern crime fighter assisted by K.I.T.T. (Knight Industries Two Thousand), an advanced, artificially intelligent, self-aware and nearly indestructible car.

Michael Knight works for the Foundation for Law and Government (FLAG), a public justice organisation founded by the wealthy Wilton Knight. After being shot in the face, detective Michael Long is given a new identity and a new face through plastic surgery. As Michael Knight, he fights crime with the help of K.I.T.T., a car equipped with an indestructible shell and artificial intelligence.

Each week, Michael and K.I.T.T. are sent on missions by FLAG's leader Devon Miles to fight criminals who operate "above the law" or who are beyond the reach of conventional law enforcement agencies.

The show combines elements of action, adventure, science fiction, and buddy comedy, with the special relationship between Michael and K.I.T.T. being a central focus of the series. K.I.T.T.'s sardonic wit and Michael's charm made them one of television's most memorable partnerships.

K.I.T.T. (Knight Industries Two Thousand) is one of the most iconic vehicles in television history. Here are some key facts about this remarkable car:

• Base Model: 1982 Pontiac Trans Am with extensive modifications

• Voice: Provided by William Daniels (known for his role as Mr. Feeny in Boy Meets World)

• Artificial Intelligence: K.I.T.T. is equipped with an advanced AI that allows him to think, learn, and communicate

• Molecular Bonded Shell: K.I.T.T.'s body is protected by a virtually indestructible coating

• Scanner Bar: The distinctive red scanner in the front of the car serves as K.I.T.T.'s "eyes"

• Turbo Boost: Allows K.I.T.T. to jump over obstacles

• Super Pursuit Mode: Introduced in the fourth season, this modification allows K.I.T.T. to reach speeds up to 300 mph

• Self-Driving Capability: K.I.T.T. can drive himself and perform complex manoeuvres

• Gadgets: Includes oil slicks, smoke screens, flame throwers, tear gas launchers, and a grappling hook

• Communications: Features a video display, voice synthesiser, and long-range communications system

K.I.T.T.'s design and capabilities were revolutionary for television at the time and predicted many of the automotive technologies that are now becoming reality, such as self-driving capabilities, advanced navigation systems, and voice-controlled features.

Knight Rider has had a substantial impact on popular culture since its debut in 1982:

• Iconic Theme Song: The Knight Rider theme music by Stu Phillips and Glen A. Larson is one of the most recognisable TV themes ever created

• K.I.T.T.: The intelligent car became one of the most famous vehicles in television history, influencing subsequent depictions of smart technology in media

• David Hasselhoff's Career: The show launched Hasselhoff to international stardom before his later success with Baywatch

• Spin-offs and Reboots: The original series spawned several follow-up attempts including Team Knight Rider (1997), a TV movie (2008), and a short-lived reboot series (2008–2009)

• Merchandise: The show generated numerous toys, model kits, video games, and other merchandise

• Car Technology: K.I.T.T. predicted many features now common in modern vehicles, including GPS navigation, voice control, and driver assistance systems

• References in Other Media: The show has been referenced or parodied in countless other TV shows, films, and commercials

• Dedicated Fan Base: Knight Rider continues to maintain an active fan community with conventions, replica cars, and online forums

Knight Rider represents a distinct piece of 1980s television history that continues to resonate with audiences today, with its blend of action, cutting-edge technology (for its time), and the special relationship between man and machine.
