This was a genuinely clever ending. i've never forgotten it. From Michael having to reassume control to the idea of why KARR would turn away (utterly unexpected), this was above average for network TV at the time.
When you stop to realize that Peter Cullen, the voice of Optimus Prime, also voiced a car that would easily fit in with the Decepticons, you know you're in for a wild ride.

@@terrywest111 That would be absolutely correct, considering what it cost to build those cars. The book explains it alot better, but still fails to make sense.

So they started from scratch again. Which doesn't make sense, since it was all about time. So Yes i agree that they should've had some Whiz-kids like Bonnie reprogramming KARR.
@@dcdrew3 Exactly. As soon as they shut him down, they should have had people there working on KARR. KITT did a lot of good during his time. Imagine what could have been done with two super cars!
@@dcdrew3 I don't think that was really possible at the time. Remember that KARR was in Laboratory 3 which was sealed off and completely dark. As soon as any power was engaged, it reactivated KARR, so it would have been impossible to work in that lab in the dark. I still don't understand how they did it. Was KARR supposed to be connected to some cables that shut him off? Because that goes against his & KITT's self sustained functioning. I know Michael deactivated KITT in an episode (maybe Killer KITT, I forget now) and he did it by pressing some buttons. But if that's what they did to KARR as well, then how could the flip of the power switch in the lab activate KARR? It was never explained and never really thought out. I think in KITT vs KARR it would've been nice if the episode was 2 hours like the Garthe/Goliath episodes & they should've shown a flashback scene with Ken Franklin, the predecessor to Michael that Devon told Michael about in Knight of the Drones who was killed by CJ Jackson who escaped in that episode. It would have been cool if they had Ken driving KARR in a flashback scene & tailing CJ and finding a connection between him and Tanya Walker's & Fred Wilson's crew, who around that time had been infiltrating Knight Industries. In that scene, KARR having been newly built and not fully aware of his capabilities, would desert Ken to preserve himself, leaving Ken to be unprotected when CJ pulls a gun on him & kills him. Wilton Knight, having realized the mistake in KARR's programming, blames himself for pairing Ken with a faulty piece of technology made by his company and shelves FLAG (including KARR) like Devon said he did in Knight of the Drones up until they find Michael 6 months later (Devon in Trust Doesn't Rust said how KARR was activated 6 months before they found Michael). The only slight contradiction made here is how Devon tells Michael in Knight of the Drones how Ken was killed several years before their conversation in that episode, so that several years would have to be about 2-2.5 years before that episode, which doesn't seem like several. Because any longer than that, and the 1982 model Trans Am that KARR & later KITT were based on would not have existed or been available to buy & modify (unless it came out in 1981 like most car models come out the year before the year of the model). Because we know from what Devon said in Knight of the Drones that there was no FLAG project progression between Ken's death and when they found Michael. I pointed this all out in another comment I made in the video of this same channel where KARR returns in KITT vs. KARR and mentioned how Devon mentions that FLAG was shelved until they found Michael but how it wasn't specified what that meant. Did Wilton look for prospective candidates before finding Michael Long shot in the desert by Tanya and find Michael Long to be an exemplary candidate based on his record? Furthermore, would Michael Long have even qualified prior to being shot, because he was an active lieutenant in the police force and Wilton had no clue or the luxury of fore/hindsight or expectations that Michael would leave his job & join FLAG? We do find out in Trust Doesn't Rust that Tanya Walker & crew were infiltrating Knight Industries at around that time & virtually ruined the company with secrets they stole, so my best guess is that stealing of secrets from Wilton by Tanya's group had already happened and Wilton was tailing Tanya and her friends during the events of Knight of the Phoenix and found Michael through following them from a distance. And that fateful night when he found Michael is when he immediately restarted FLAG because with Michael Long declared dead, Wilton would've had a pretty good feeling Michael would join FLAG with his former life now over. So with that sudden revival of the FLAG project, Wilton had no time to reprogram KARR, which would be dangerous if KARR were to suddenly activate and would perhaps be more time consuming to go through every line of KARR's code to see where the errors were than to replicate it and just add new code on top of it that would protect human life & would override the self preservation code by giving it a higher precedence/priority, which does exist in programming. Not to mention because of guilt from Ken's death, Wilton wouldn't want or trust KARR from that point onward and wouldn't want to put Michael with him. This would be similar to how someone who lives in a house where one of their family members died would want to sell the house and not want to live there anymore from the memories, etc. One additional thing I remember mentioning in that other comment I made in the KITT vs KARR video was how Ken's death & the guilt & grief it caused Wilton could also have been used to explain how Tanya & her group infiltrated Knight Industries, because Wilton seemed too smart & keen to allow something like that to happen, unless he took his eye off the ball & got complacent from being grief-stricken from guilt over Ken Franklin's death. I remember mentioning how all these threads of plot we got throughout the series could have been sewn together like a mosaic to create a nice grand story had they extended KITT vs KARR to 2 hours. I also mentioned in that comment how I always thought they should've explained how that part of the beach where KARR landed was once used by the military and how in my imagination, I always thought KARR landed on some live/unexploded ordinance or munitions (or a small vessel with some of that to explain the scattered debris we saw in the explosion) that blew a crater in the sand where KARR got stuck & the incoming waves and sand erosion buried KARR underneath. Or if not the military, then maybe it was something terrorists that Michael would have to go after in a future episode would've hidden there while planning their next moves. The explosion and/or impact with the ground would've also damaged his alpha circuits and disconnected the voice modulator cable. I remember mentioning how an added scene in that episode with John telling Mandy how the military used to use that area for operations and how there could be metals that are either precious or could be sold off as scrap metal to John's boss Eddie at the marine to bring them money, which the metal detectors would fall further in line with. I think that would've been a better reason for them to bring those than Spanish doubloons (did Spanish vessels ever make it out to the west coast/CA?).
The crash of KARR at 9:25 is actually footage from the ending of the horror movie ''The car''. The car (a modified Lincoln doesn't look much like KARR) but personality-wise they are very similar.
In the defense of Universal, when the show was first aired, that wasn't really noticed by most. I saw it immediately because I had seen the footage in the other movies. You would be surprised just how much "stock footage" gets around.
A bit of old news there, Pal. A real interesting piece of trivia is that they brought Peter Cullen back to play KARR in the 2008 reboot of Knight Rider.
he also did iron hide in transformers and was the narrator in the opening credits of voltron and and was also the voice of eorrh (the blue donkey) from Winnie the pooh.
Some awesome throwbacks right here. I remember having the toys and rolling them around talking like Kitt and Karr. This was CARS before CARS ever existed.
@@leontransit1652 I was totally about to say that!!! I paused it right as he jumped off the cliff and immediately recognized the scene! LMAO! ua-cam.com/video/fvJ8uq_qmu4/v-deo.html
it was from the movie "The Car" and the automobile used in that film was a 1971 Lincoln Continental Mark III with a body designed ALSO by George Barris, Same designer for KITT!
The Knight Industries cars has always had shape-shifting abilities. Didn't you see the rebooted Knight Rider show? 😉😁 Unfortunately for KARR, there was a glitch in his programming, since Bonnie never got the time to finish the work on KARR. KARR was actually trying to change into a plane, but faulty programming planted by Bonnie and the damage caused by that first laser shot had a disastrous effect on his shape-changing abilities. The explosion was caused by KARR landing on a mine, hurling KARR several feet away and causing KARR to go into power saving mode. This is why we see KARR looking slightly different in the KITT vs KARR episode.
I don't think younger people understand just how cool the 3rd gen Trans Am looked when it came out. There was nothing else like it. Just compare it to the other cars you can see in this episode.
Karr is misunderstood. He really was not evil it was not money or power that he craved. He only a temporary prototype built for testing , granted fully awareness, and is simply guilty of wanting to maintain his consciousness and have a fair chance to live. His character could have had more development because he could have told Kitt that he has the same fate awaiting him too as the humans would shut him down one day as well. That could have planted a major seed of doubt in KITT's mind causing him to act or do react uncharacteristic and unloyal much later on. #missedopportunity
@@sweetdaddy77 They kinda did with the Knight Rider 2000 movie. KITT was shut down and disassembled. Michael got recruited once again to fight crime and KITT was in boxes. Michael installed KITT into a 57 Chevy and he was none too happy about that. Eventually he was installed into a Pontiac Banshee prototype and then he was happy once again. Not a bad movie, not as good as the TV show was but much better than the reeboot with the mustang.
@SMBComix It was both actually. It restarted a long cancelled TV show (reboot) as well as kept in the same world and timeline (Sequel). I thought they did a great job there, but when the car could change into all these wild things, that is where they lost me. It lost the character charm of the first show.
Bumble Bee: And weren't you evil as a car? Prime: I said that's enough Bumble Bee! This discussion is over. Now let's go kick Megatron's butt! Bumble Bee: Ok Optimus! Optimus: Autobots roll out!
@@billionairelivesmatter Well they were obviously filming Knight Rider on a tight budget and were probably rushing to get the editing completed in time before the episode was due to air. Probably didn't have time to completely observe the footage to see which was the best take for that close up shot at 1:46.
Love knight rider/the A-team/the fall guy/dukes of hazard plus other car related tv programs from the 1980s as they was the best times ever for action series programs of that time and era!!!!
This is my childhood right here😭😭wayy back in 2005 this used to show on the television and i used to be hooked to it from the time it begins to the time it ends😭i gotta say this is one of the best car show ever made
I grew up in the ‘90s so this, MacGyver, Star Trek TNG and the animated X-Men series were atop my tv shows. Man I miss that ‘80s/‘90s era. Was right on the cusp of modern era technology but we hadn’t yet lost our collective minds like today. Was a much simpler time…Miss them
When Patricia McPherson left the show our hearts were broken a bit. The replacing April was just too dumb a blonde to be convincing. Patricia was what they said later about Gillian Anderson: IDDG, or Intellectually Drop Dead Gorgeous.
Bonnie was unique, a great mechanic in times where men dominated most jobs, her charisma earned her the affection not only of Michael, Devon, KITT or the foundation, but also of all the Knight Rider fans who watched the series. 😍
The first episode with KARR was voiced by Peter Cullen but in the last and final episode, KARR was voiced by Paul Frees and I think I prefer Paul’s voice even though I’m a huge Peter Cullen fan! Paul Frees had a seriously maniacal voice which fit KARR’s personality a bit better in comparison to Peter Cullen. Either way, both voice actors did a fantastic job!💪🏻🤘🏻
I loved this episode very, very much! Conversations between KITT & KARR really nice and at the climax Michael tricked KARR! Excellent job done by Michael!
You know Peter Cullen again did KARR in the reboot of Knight Rider. 6:36-in other words, “you’re too fat, buddy!” 9:18-Bonnie and Michael lying to each other is my favorite part in this episode 9:44-“aww, c’mon and just kiss, already, we all know you wanted to do it”
I’m glad they gave KITT the “KARR-esque” voice modulator display in later seasons. Looks so much better. I was always fascinated with that thing as a kid. Odd that the show never gave an explanation for where KARR got a yellow scanner or gray bottom in his second appearance. At least I think he was sort of two-toned but that was 20 years ago last time I saw it.
It was mainly to let the audience know which car was KARR and which one was KITT. There was complaints from this episode that it was hard to tell which was which. He was two toned, the lower parts were silver the upper was black. The scan bar changed to a yellow/green color too. Also he was a bit more sadistic, possibly due to the damage from going over the cliff... If memory serves, someone found him buried and dug him up, repaired the damage and off we go again.
Yes in 3rd season Kitt vs Karr it says the salt water had caused his scanner to change to a yellow. And Karr says he wants to alter his image as a disguise. Thats where the silver came from
@@jrag1000 No, it was the car from the movie THE CAR ... they stole the scenes directly from the movie and spliced them into this show. I think it was too expensive for them to ACTUALLY use one of the Knight Rider cars and perform the stunt.
Lol only noticed that..... Immediately. I mean WTAF they didn't even try! Also love that the brackets they use to tow the car for action scenes are clear as day. Oh well still a great show!
Man this was more than I ever could of expected. Came here for a couple laughs and came away favorably impressed. They could of got more mileage out of KARR but thats show biz. That stunt which ended at 1:25 was pretty impressive
Years later and now we see the imperfections on these old shows. Going thru a wall that was put up on a garage entrance you can see the open door above. Also the car falling off the cliff isn't the same car. Love it.
Yeah, and wasn't it kind of KARR to slow down(1:08) so that Michael could safely make the leap between cars! KARR had to decelerate from a whopping 20mph all the way down to 15mph! How convenient is it that KITT and KARR look exactly alike, so that the studio didn't have to spend any money to come up with a new vehicle!
9:26 Its nice of how the people who made this movie used the clip from the movie, The Car(1977). if u dont know what im talkin about, look it up and watch it.
At the end of the episode, KITT has a deep philosophical moment, "Being one of a kind, is a very familiar feeling.". Now that KARR has been destroyed, KITT feels he is the only one.
9:25 WTF? I know I cannot be the only one who just saw...what is that...a Nash Rambler? KARR turned into some 1950's looking thing. And how does a virtually indestructible car just exploded into pieces and then be found intact later on?
I see a lot of examples that they made at least 10 amateuristic mistakes that we didn't see as enthouiastic kids, but as grownups become painfully aware. This actionshow wouldn't have lasted if internet would have existed in those days. Production and editing would have been fired for this amateuristic mistakes.
9:26 That's a clip from the ending of the horror 1977 movie "The Car", if u slow down at 9:25 ya can clearly see the car. Almost the same thing happened to Duel with The Incredible Hulk in the episode called "Never Give a Trucker an Even Break" with the difference that they used almost the whole ending of the film. It wasn't a suprise to know that Spielberg (director of Duel) was very upset to see the footage reused. Also, The Car (1977) was a modified (and demonic) Lincoln Continental Mark III designed by George Barris, who also designed KITT
It was footage taken from the '77 horror film The Car about a satanic Lincoln which as you can see looks nothing at all like an 80s Firebird. Universal loved borrowing scenes from their older material to save money in the 80s
@@CarecaRetrogamer Same. Love Kinght Rider. My family and I thought it was the most hilarious thing ever when it looked like a random car was pushed off the cliff.
Wait just a minute.....once KARR goes over the cliff,they secretly used a stock footage of the car going off the cliff,not KARR. Did anyone else notice that or am I just the only one ?
I was watching it on DVD, and I had to rewind it a couple of times to make sure. I did some research, and I found out that The Car and Knight Rider were both produced by Universal. If you listen closely, The Car's horn and engine sounds were used in a lot of episodes.
It was borrowed footage from the Universal archives from a 1977 movie The Car about a demonically possessed Lincoln. Which looks NOTHING like an 80s Firebird . Lazy editing
It was taken from the ending of the '77 film The Car about a satanic Lincoln, another Universal Studios creation. They were famous for raiding their own archives for footage to save money
This was a genuinely clever ending. i've never forgotten it. From Michael having to reassume control to the idea of why KARR would turn away (utterly unexpected), this was above average for network TV at the time.

Furthermore, would Michael Long have even qualified prior to being shot, because he was an active lieutenant in the police force and Wilton had no clue or the luxury of fore/hindsight or expectations that Michael would leave his job & join FLAG?
We do find out in Trust Doesn't Rust that Tanya Walker & crew were infiltrating Knight Industries at around that time & virtually ruined the company with secrets they stole, so my best guess is that stealing of secrets from Wilton by Tanya's group had already happened and Wilton was tailing Tanya and her friends during the events of Knight of the Phoenix and found Michael through following them from a distance. And that fateful night when he found Michael is when he immediately restarted FLAG because with Michael Long declared dead, Wilton would've had a pretty good feeling Michael would join FLAG with his former life now over. So with that sudden revival of the FLAG project, Wilton had no time to reprogram KARR, which would be dangerous if KARR were to suddenly activate and would perhaps be more time consuming to go through every line of KARR's code to see where the errors were than to replicate it and just add new code on top of it that would protect human life & would override the self preservation code by giving it a higher precedence/priority, which does exist in programming. Not to mention because of guilt from Ken's death, Wilton wouldn't want or trust KARR from that point onward and wouldn't want to put Michael with him. This would be similar to how someone who lives in a house where one of their family members died would want to sell the house and not want to live there anymore from the memories, etc.
One additional thing I remember mentioning in that other comment I made in the KITT vs KARR video was how Ken's death & the guilt & grief it caused Wilton could also have been used to explain how Tanya & her group infiltrated Knight Industries, because Wilton seemed too smart & keen to allow something like that to happen, unless he took his eye off the ball & got complacent from being grief-stricken from guilt over Ken Franklin's death. I remember mentioning how all these threads of plot we got throughout the series could have been sewn together like a mosaic to create a nice grand story had they extended KITT vs KARR to 2 hours.
I also mentioned in that comment how I always thought they should've explained how that part of the beach where KARR landed was once used by the military and how in my imagination, I always thought KARR landed on some live/unexploded ordinance or munitions (or a small vessel with some of that to explain the scattered debris we saw in the explosion) that blew a crater in the sand where KARR got stuck & the incoming waves and sand erosion buried KARR underneath. Or if not the military, then maybe it was something terrorists that Michael would have to go after in a future episode would've hidden there while planning their next moves. The explosion and/or impact with the ground would've also damaged his alpha circuits and disconnected the voice modulator cable. I remember mentioning how an added scene in that episode with John telling Mandy how the military used to use that area for operations and how there could be metals that are either precious or could be sold off as scrap metal to John's boss Eddie at the marine to bring them money, which the metal detectors would fall further in line with. I think that would've been a better reason for them to bring those than Spanish doubloons (did Spanish vessels ever make it out to the west coast/CA?).
The crash of KARR at 9:25 is actually footage from the ending of the horror movie ''The car''. The car (a modified Lincoln doesn't look much like KARR) but personality-wise they are very similar.
I thought I was the only one that noticed that shit!lmao!
The second part of the footage was of a pickup truck from some movie or other heading into the drink.
Well, it sure as hell wasn't an '82 Trans-Am. 😂
In the defense of Universal, when the show was first aired, that wasn't really noticed by most.
I saw it immediately because I had seen the footage in the other movies.
You would be surprised just how much "stock footage" gets around.
@Richard Kopel, I don't know the movie, but I noticed it wasn't KARR's car that crashed
I remember watching reruns of Knight Rider when I was younger this was on of my favorite episodes
Mine too.
forget reruns i watched it as it aired every wedensday night on channel 9 @ 5:00pm
1:14 The technology in Michael's boots are pretty dope. Changing colors and stuff...😁
It's the Knight Rider magic! 😁😁
Bonded polymer boots
If KARR sounds familiar its voice actor Peter Cullen who later voiced Optimus Prime in Transformers. Small World
And Coran and Commander Hawkins in Voltron.
i always thought that was him.
A bit of old news there, Pal.
A real interesting piece of trivia is that they brought Peter Cullen back to play KARR in the 2008 reboot of Knight Rider.
So he's famous for voicing two cars that's pretty cool actually
he also did iron hide in transformers and was the narrator in the opening credits of voltron and and was also the voice of eorrh (the blue donkey) from Winnie the pooh.
A stack of cardboard boxes had those guards totally flummoxed.
Yeah, bamboozled and hoodwinked too! 🙄
Not to mention they were out of the way of the boxes and then walked behind them on their own lol
They looked empty
04:40. They must have taken a nap. No noise, yelling, etc while the thief sorted through the jewels.
This thread is hilarious! 😂
I love and miss every second of the 80s. What fantastic memories I have of this show, how innocent I was and how the world was infinite.
Some awesome throwbacks right here. I remember having the toys and rolling them around talking like Kitt and Karr. This was CARS before CARS ever existed.
I like K.I.T.T. better than K.A.R.R.
9:30 Ahh! Nothing like that 80's cheesy explosion sound effect to top all that cheese. I love it! 🤩
Wow, KARR turns into a different model when going off the cliff. I guess it has shapeshifting powers now.
They actually used footage of “The Car”
@@leontransit1652 I was totally about to say that!!! I paused it right as he jumped off the cliff and immediately recognized the scene! LMAO!
ua-cam.com/video/fvJ8uq_qmu4/v-deo.html
@@leontransit1652 Where did they take the 2nd part of that scene when it hit the ground from? That's what I don't know.
it was from the movie "The Car" and the automobile used in that film was a 1971 Lincoln Continental Mark III with a body designed ALSO by George Barris, Same designer for KITT!
The Knight Industries cars has always had shape-shifting abilities. Didn't you see the rebooted Knight Rider show? 😉😁
Unfortunately for KARR, there was a glitch in his programming, since Bonnie never got the time to finish the work on KARR. KARR was actually trying to change into a plane, but faulty programming planted by Bonnie and the damage caused by that first laser shot had a disastrous effect on his shape-changing abilities.
The explosion was caused by KARR landing on a mine, hurling KARR several feet away and causing KARR to go into power saving mode.
This is why we see KARR looking slightly different in the KITT vs KARR episode.
Cant find such 80's simple thrill in 2019.

"One shall stand, One shall fall" would've fit perfectly as a line for KARR
I don't think younger people understand just how cool the 3rd gen Trans Am looked when it came out. There was nothing else like it. Just compare it to the other cars you can see in this episode.
it still looks good today
Karr is misunderstood. He really was not evil it was not money or power that he craved. He only a temporary prototype built for testing , granted fully awareness, and is simply guilty of wanting to maintain his consciousness and have a fair chance to live.
His character could have had more development because he could have told Kitt that he has the same fate awaiting him too as the humans would shut him down one day as well. That could have planted a major seed of doubt in KITT's mind causing him to act or do react uncharacteristic and unloyal much later on. #missedopportunity
They could have definitely drawn out that plot.
Blame the programmers...
@@sweetdaddy77 They kinda did with the Knight Rider 2000 movie. KITT was shut down and disassembled. Michael got recruited once again to fight crime and KITT was in boxes. Michael installed KITT into a 57 Chevy and he was none too happy about that. Eventually he was installed into a Pontiac Banshee prototype and then he was happy once again. Not a bad movie, not as good as the TV show was but much better than the reeboot with the mustang.
@SMBComix It was both actually. It restarted a long cancelled TV show (reboot) as well as kept in the same world and timeline (Sequel). I thought they did a great job there, but when the car could change into all these wild things, that is where they lost me. It lost the character charm of the first show.
In Kitt vs Karr there was no dialogue between Kitt and Karr. Only Michael and Karr. I was highly disappointed
'You always liked her better' What? Are you out of your mind, man?! 🤣
KITT has never liked anyone better! You are his buddy! 🤜🏻🤛🏻
I just noticed they reused the cliff jump footage from "The Car" (1977) at 9:25. Mind blown.
I saw
if you watch the episode involving the ranchers...they used the superman dam blocking footage
yes they also used the same engine noise from the car as well did you notice that lol
Even more mind blowing is that another episode they reused footage from Superman the movie in a rockslide sequence
"Michael and Bonnie why are you lying to yourselves " I died😹😹
It’s Optimus prime’s former life.
Bumble Bee: Prime, is it true you were once a car?

Zombiehunter115 No, I didn’t forget. I was pointing out and laughing at just one of the many errors. 😂
So, amateuristic mistake nr 4 in this outtake.
HAHA 1:46 it's footage from Michael being on top of KARR, since you can barely see Michael's foot on the rear window, but he's actually driving KITT
Mm oi
Hoje ou no
Must've been quite a complicating sequence to shoot that they forgot to shoot a close up shot on KARR there without Michael being on his rooftop.
8p x
@@AndrewChapman It looks like an editing mistake. They didn’t need that shot, but it’s there. How’d that get missed?
@@billionairelivesmatter Well they were obviously filming Knight Rider on a tight budget and were probably rushing to get the editing completed in time before the episode was due to air. Probably didn't have time to completely observe the footage to see which was the best take for that close up shot at 1:46.
Love knight rider/the A-team/the fall guy/dukes of hazard plus other car related tv programs from the 1980s as they was the best times ever for action series programs of that time and era!!!!
Watched this as a kid... Guess it's one of the reasons I like fast cars and pretty girls...
@Three Eighty-Six Soccer moms.
i like pretty cars and fast girls.
Corny show, but one of the best TV show theme songs ever.
All theme songs in the 80s were great. Even the catchy jingles in ads too
@@JustWasted3HoursHere Just a typical 80's show I'd say :P
I don't always jump from the top of one moving car to the hood of another moving car, but when I do, I like to wear cowboy boots.
😂
This is my childhood right here😭😭wayy back in 2005 this used to show on the television and i used to be hooked to it from the time it begins to the time it ends😭i gotta say this is one of the best car show ever made
I grew up in the ‘90s so this, MacGyver, Star Trek TNG and the animated X-Men series were atop my tv shows. Man I miss that ‘80s/‘90s era. Was right on the cusp of modern era technology but we hadn’t yet lost our collective minds like today. Was a much simpler time…Miss them
I think Bonnie was my first celebrity crush - I don't think I was even 9 yet. 😱
Lol same
When Patricia McPherson left the show our hearts were broken a bit. The replacing April was just too dumb a blonde to be convincing.
Patricia was what they said later about Gillian Anderson: IDDG, or Intellectually Drop Dead Gorgeous.
Yup same here too
April or Bonnie, April.... or.. Bonnie.
Bonnie it is.
Bonnie was unique, a great mechanic in times where men dominated most jobs, her charisma earned her the affection not only of Michael, Devon, KITT or the foundation, but also of all the Knight Rider fans who watched the series. 😍
The first episode with KARR was voiced by Peter Cullen but in the last and final episode, KARR was voiced by Paul Frees and I think I prefer Paul’s voice even though I’m a huge Peter Cullen fan! Paul Frees had a seriously maniacal voice which fit KARR’s personality a bit better in comparison to Peter Cullen. Either way, both voice actors did a fantastic job!💪🏻🤘🏻
Surprising they have 2 different voice actors for K.A.R.R. in Knight Rider.
All I hear is Optimus prime 😳
@@risco1974 Peter Cullen was the first one who played K.A.R.R. in Knight Rider before Paul Frees.
But what if someone had the same demanding force of Cullen's KARR but the maniacal style of Frees.
Fricking shivers man.
True. Cullen is great but Frees had a more sinister tone that lent to the revenge angle of the second KARR episode.
I loved this episode very, very much! Conversations between KITT & KARR really nice and at the climax Michael tricked KARR! Excellent job done by Michael!
Peter Cullen voicing Kaar again in the 2008 series was so awesome to hear
With my vocal chords and personality tied behind my back, I can out voice him.
The only bad thing was that they gave little prominence to KARR, only a reference to Transformers and they immediately destroyed it.
"We're gonna stop that car one way or another..."
Next moment:
*Hurt in a car? Call William Mattar.*
You know Peter Cullen again did KARR in the reboot of Knight Rider.
6:36-in other words, “you’re too fat, buddy!”
9:18-Bonnie and Michael lying to each other is my favorite part in this episode
9:44-“aww, c’mon and just kiss, already, we all know you wanted to do it”
"No, no, nooo!" 😂
I’m glad they gave KITT the “KARR-esque” voice modulator display in later seasons. Looks so much better. I was always fascinated with that thing as a kid.
Odd that the show never gave an explanation for where KARR got a yellow scanner or gray bottom in his second appearance. At least I think he was sort of two-toned but that was 20 years ago last time I saw it.
It was mainly to let the audience know which car was KARR and which one was KITT. There was complaints from this episode that it was hard to tell which was which. He was two toned, the lower parts were silver the upper was black. The scan bar changed to a yellow/green color too. Also he was a bit more sadistic, possibly due to the damage from going over the cliff... If memory serves, someone found him buried and dug him up, repaired the damage and off we go again.
Yes in 3rd season Kitt vs Karr it says the salt water had caused his scanner to change to a yellow. And Karr says he wants to alter his image as a disguise. Thats where the silver came from
Explanation is simple; producers of the show had their brains burnt by cocaine. That's why scripts were so bad..
well in this episode Karr didn't fly off the cliff, that was a blue and white 19 57 chevy
@@jrag1000 No, it was the car from the movie THE CAR ... they stole the scenes directly from the movie and spliced them into this show. I think it was too expensive for them to ACTUALLY use one of the Knight Rider cars and perform the stunt.
Did anyone notice that - at the instant KARR went over the side - it actually looked like a ‘57 Chevy (or some similarly aged antique)?
LOL yup you're right
That was actually the ending from an old 1977 movie "The Car" which was a customized lincoln mark III spliced in.
Lol only noticed that..... Immediately. I mean WTAF they didn't even try! Also love that the brackets they use to tow the car for action scenes are clear as day. Oh well still a great show!
It was a clip from the movie The Car!
@@INFAMOUSLSG You win the daily double!👊👊👊👊👊👊
Man this was more than I ever could of expected. Came here for a couple laughs
and came away favorably impressed. They could of got more mileage out of KARR but thats show biz. That stunt which ended at 1:25 was pretty impressive
"Mileage out of KARR".
I see what you did there
Didn't he come back (despite exploding!) anyway, or is this his second appearance?
@@johnpotts8308he came back later
Years later and now we see the imperfections on these old shows. Going thru a wall that was put up on a garage entrance you can see the open door above. Also the car falling off the cliff isn't the same car. Love it.
Not to mention numerous scenery changes as KARR turbo boosts over KITT.
Yeah, and wasn't it kind of KARR to slow down(1:08) so that Michael could safely make the leap between cars! KARR had to decelerate from a whopping 20mph all the way down to 15mph!
How convenient is it that KITT and KARR look exactly alike, so that the studio didn't have to spend any money to come up with a new vehicle!
And if we notice they reuse this same car falling clip throughout the whole season and above
@@Lcgmatheus
Really? They recycled that scene over and over in different episodes? I could see maybe once, but beyond that it's pretty lame. 😒
Also in some of the driving scenes you can see the blue and green screen used for the scenes .
9:26 Its nice of how the people who made this movie used the clip from the movie, The Car(1977). if u dont know what im talkin about, look it up and watch it.
I like this episode. An you picked good music at the end. Thank You Loader.
At the end of the episode, KITT has a deep philosophical moment, "Being one of a kind, is a very familiar feeling.". Now that KARR has been destroyed, KITT feels he is the only one.
Little did KITT know, there was RIDE.
9:25 WTF? I know I cannot be the only one who just saw...what is that...a Nash Rambler? KARR turned into some 1950's looking thing. And how does a virtually indestructible car just exploded into pieces and then be found intact later on?
Noticed that as well!
It looked as if they edited in the final scene from the movie The Car (1977)
HAHAHA! Only the Writers of the show know for sure. lol.
@@TheTallMan50 they did.
The end where he drives off was from the movie “The Car”
I found this channel and have been grinning for the the last hour since😂😂❤ it. Member berries Thank you for putting these out there.
I love how the cars just jump over things with no ramp lol
Turbo boost
The ramps are really well hidden for those stunts
I guess that the reason KARR could come back is that he fooled them with stock footage from the 1977 movie The Car 🤷♂️
Both Kitt and karr battles were the greatest ever
I remember my mum brought me michaels watch for my birthday all those years ago best series ever
Most of the 80's TV shows are better than nowadays. Also, Patricia McPherson is insanely beautiful and charming.
I love the chemistry he has with David Hasselhoff. 🥰
I know it
Patricia McPherson was a beautiful and talented actress her chemistry with David Hasselhoff was great.
Ended too soon, Stop short of Bonnie & Michael ALMOST Kissing, they both stopped short & said NAAAAAA! before pulling back, 😂🤣
Like how at 1:15, michael footwear magically changes😂
Lore + KARR vs Data + KITT in the most anticipated crossover ever.
1:45 they screwed up! Notice the stuntman on KARR when Micheal should have been inside KITT at that point in time chasing KARR!
I see a lot of examples that they made at least 10 amateuristic mistakes that we didn't see as enthouiastic kids, but as grownups become painfully aware.
This actionshow wouldn't have lasted if internet would have existed in those days. Production and editing would have been fired for this amateuristic mistakes.
The end had me dying, No noooooo right off the cliff, & it was a different color car 😆
KARR: Yes, I see. It is the inferior production line of copy.
KITT: I heard that, KARR, and you haven't seen anything yet.
Prototype. You keep using that word, KARR. I don't think you know what it means....
4:20 love how the cops/guards just willingly walk into the adhoc trap made for them 😂
And are also apparently unable to climb up a few boxes either!
Peter Cullen did a great job with KARR's voice.
Fun fact: Peter Cullen did Optimus Prime in the original Transformers.

Good eye I would have never noticed that!
80s shows always sprung for exciting score music.
Present Day...not so much
I remember this episode. I loved all of the 80s television shows because they were wholesome family shows
9:26 That's a clip from the ending of the horror 1977 movie "The Car", if u slow down at 9:25 ya can clearly see the car. Almost the same thing happened to Duel with The Incredible Hulk in the episode called "Never Give a Trucker an Even Break" with the difference that they used almost the whole ending of the film. It wasn't a suprise to know that Spielberg (director of Duel) was very upset to see the footage reused.
Also, The Car (1977) was a modified (and demonic) Lincoln Continental Mark III designed by George Barris, who also designed KITT
It's funny you can still see legs and boots flying in the wind as Karr rounds the second bend at 1:46 seconds
9:26 It's a car completely different from a Trans AM! roflmao XD
It was footage taken from the '77 horror film The Car about a satanic Lincoln which as you can see looks nothing at all like an 80s Firebird. Universal loved borrowing scenes from their older material to save money in the 80s
