KITT Gets Trapped | Knight Rider 

His shape always reminds me of a torpedo with wheels.

@@Angyali in some episodes hé remind me of a ufo car

@@alexpowers5117 you probably know this, but in an episode KITT actually pretended to be a UFO. It was so riddiculous it even made Michael grin.

@@Angyali episode not a drop to drink

Yes he does! 😊

Stupid car after all

That's like the only thing that is consistent througout this show; KITT has trouble with side and rear observation and frequently gets sneaked upon.

The front bumper they attached really made the car a pleasing proportion from length to width that the original Trans Am didn’t have.

@@GarretGrayCamera You're right: that's that proportion that contributed to make it beautiful!

not only can you not claim to be an 80`s child if you did not watch this amazing tv show at some point, but also what kid growing up in this era what not give there right arm to have a ride in kitt, and i`m sorry when you thought that you was perhaps doing good for the planet, and went out and bought a tesla, or whatever electric car, and even now you perhaps have to plug it in every few miles, while the apparent gas guzzling nasty cars speed you by, it`s not exactly kitt is it, when you buy a car designed for the future, you have to ask yourself, can it have conversations with you, can it drive it`s self, can it cruise at immense speeds, and finally can it jump over most things that are in it`s way, because if your new sci fi car can not do any of these things, then you have to wonder whats the point, and when i watch a show about a car that can come and rescue me when i`m trouble, and possibly even become my best friend, then whats not to love.

​@@paulsmith-ll9vg lol, wHaT‽

​@@GarretGrayCamera precisely!

kitt is being polite

I've remember this as a Airwolf -Knight Rider crossover..

Devon could shut order kitt shut off if was as snarky with Michael

Also the first few shots when the girl comes to talk to him and he doesn't respond. He looks there as he was ironically smirking in reaction to nonsense she was saying.

that's WIlliam Daniels' acting. should have played K-9 in Doctor Who.

Ha! I just watched the other KITT breaking Michael out of jail and it's indeed the same footage!

40 years later KITT still looks futuristic.

I can imagine him saying that now In William Daniels voice ofc

@@sashamountainwater9322 Who else would it be? Lol.

I mean, if we're talking Val Kilmer, I do not want to give you my theories as to what David Andron could've done to the two thousand behind the scenes.

It's not ridiculous

Season 1,2… KITT had a few very reserved, low toned responses. But eventually he got a little softer… more human. Data from Star Trek was the same… eventually they both became more… “human”.

Wouldn't you be stuck up in the air,not able to get anywhere,i felt so sorry for KITT here.

Other guest stars in Knight Rider had also appeared in Airwolf. But yeah, Jean Bruce Scott was indeed the only regular cast member to appear in Knight Rider.

Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do

Anything to save a dollar or two!

@@GarretGrayCamera plus probably my favorite and one of the most iconic (and best) Michael outfits 😂

David isn't meant to be a pilot

This scene as a kid was on of my faves… and now get to see it again. Thanks Knighrider official!!!

I got some unexpected gems from it... Sadly it's back stating that it has no feelings, consciousness etc and a real pain to talk to nowdays.

Kitt was actually based on the 1982 model year pontiac trams firebird many people actually people actually thought you could buy one in that spec drove dealers mad built by George barris

@@nickfensome8855 Today, you can buy KITT replicas in the $100,000+ range.

Glasses smashed

I have all the episodes on blu ray I love it when kitt says my dear I am a car not a plane

@emmabooth2357 Me too, I have all seasons on DVDs.

Do you like Baywatch as well friend ❤

@emmabooth2357 Not that much to be honest. For Knight Rider there was a curfew during the show in our neighborhood. It was a very hit show.

I have all the episodes on DVD and on my phone.I adore Knight Rider.

Yeah that confused me. He could open the garage door but not operate a simple pushbutton switch? Made no sense.

@@pdennis93 the lifter has a manual hidraulic sistem ...very analog...thas why kitt cant jack it...

@@lucaslopez9569 ok isn't a pair of handcuffs or a locked door analog?

Rather he could have launched rocket thrusters and fall from the jack. Producers conveniently forgot about this function after the first few episodes. However I still doubt he would do that. He didn't want to be immobilised just in case, or because launching himself from the jack would have been noisy, but notice he didn't attack the jail earlier when he was still on wheels. He only acted when he got a message that Michael wants to be freed.

sometimes it was Kitt who needed to be rescued by Michael.

3:17 he says "the release button is to your left". This was a season 1 episode before the later upgrades , so probably the system override only works if KITT is facing them directly

His tires are bulletproof they won’t go flat unless they use a laser or tuflex coated bullets

You did it was in knight of the phoenix

Yes,i noticed that mistake too

​@@BrianKitching-wv5nhit wasn't even there

i think Kitt was so freaking fast and dynamic, because it had some Ngk spark plugs in it.

yess is the same one

Yes,i did

This wasn't the only footage reused from the pilot.

It was wear and tear on his artificial intelligence CPU being worried about Michael being in jail so many times. Emotional damage!

@@fredmontgomery9436 Hmm… Good point.

Yes

He can also turbo boost from a standstill.

@@DavidLS1 right but the wheels need to be on the ground for that I think.

@@pdennis93 Possibly. They never really explained how that worked. K-9, Doctor Who's mechanical dog, found himself in a similar situation. He extended his laser and calmly told his captor, "Put me back on the floor or I will vaporize you." Needless to say, the man complied.

1. Jack is hydraulic, so realistically speaking he shouldn't have an option to lower it down himself. 2. But! There are some stupid moments in other episodes when he operates mechanical and hydralic devices, such as mechanic throttle body in another car or Hydramatic gearbox. 3. Also, given the first few episodes, he should have been able to fire rocket thrusters and simply fall from the jack, but this functions was just forgotten by the producers. He shouldn't have been killed in Junk Yard Dog for that reason, but again, producers wanted him dead, so they forgot he has that function. 4. But again, notice he didn't attack the jail earlier when he was still on wheels. Being lifted wasn't perfect for him, but still he had no intention to act, unless otherwise instructed. And for good reasons. Imagine the mayhem if KITT automatically destroyed a police station every time Michael was arrested. Most of the time there was no reason to do it.

They reused the jail footage from the first episode to save some cash!

@@fredmontgomery9436 i see but first episodes were 01 and 02, this looks like 17
