  • Dukes of Hazzard fans can't help but notice the orange 1969 Dodge Charger and the teasing that Knight Rider gives Dukes here. While KITT may seem to prove itself the superior car in this clip, the Dukes of Hazzard lasted 7 seasons, while Knight Rider only lasted 4. So there! Nyah. (Original airdate, Jan 21, 1983.)

    Knight Rider and The Dukes of Hazzard were one of my favourite TV shows from the 80's. The Dukes of Hazzard's first broadcast was in January 1979 and last was in February 1985. Knight Rider's first broadcast was in September 1982 and last in April 1986.
    When Knight Rider was first broadcast in September 1982, The Dukes of Hazzard were airing their 5th season without Bo and Luke Duke for 19 episodes.
    I still enjoy both shows and cars. Both vehicles used to get wrecked during the stunts, especially the landings of the jumps, depending how they landed, sometimes demolished the cars pretty bad. None of them were indestructible. The Charger did more spectacular jumps and was more abused than the Trans Am. They did wrecked less Trans Am's during the jumps because they sometimes used some special stunt cars with a rubber kind of body and some 1/8th scale '82 Camaro Z/28's from the 2nd season on, modified to look like the KITT car. The Dukes of Hazzard had the same treatment, I think during their 7th and last season, for some crazy dangerous jumps.
    The Charger on this video that exploded was later replaced by a Dodge Monaco that was totally burned for the scene. These Monaco's also had a hard time during the filming of TV shows in the 1980's.

    There's a non coincident car in the explosion. the car exploded is the Charger, but burning car is a 1978 Dodge Monaco

    These are great to watch, but they get a bit embarrassing too. Bonnie gets caught fiddling with KITT...again.. but finishes in time when Michael opens the door.
    Then there is "KITT's Schematic Visuals" lol omg, but the best bit is the turbo boost upto 160 MPH which looks to be not going much faster than the red car. Glad I was easily fooled as a kid :)

    You have to remember that Knight Rider in its first season was on Friday nights, the same night as The Dukes Of Hazzard. With this being the season of Coy and Vance on the Dukes and the ratings dropping, Glen Larson and his staff decided to have some "friendly fun" at their network rivals and make people forget the General Lee. To avoid copyrights, they didn't say the car's name, but the orange Charger and the moonshine were mentioned, even though the Dukes couldn't sell it.

    I dont see the insult myself. Not Every orange Charger is the General Lee. I am interested in knowing how a 1969 Charger turns into a '74 Monaco after it explodes. In the last Knight Rider series, KITT was a Mustang that could transform into a F150 pick up and other vehicle profiles. Perhaps the orange Charger in this Knight Rider clip has a technological advancement that is even beyond KITT!

    why does every serie/movie have to crash or explode a charger (even if they don't show up)?
    The dukes of hazzard,knight rider,the fast and the furious,vanish point,bullit,etc...
    I mean ,the dodge charger is beautiful and now days is already really hard to get one.
    Not to mention I hope someone bring Pontiac back,I want they make a new fire bird trans am

    burning scene: took the idea straight from VANISHING POINT. Y'all know it ain't a Challenger that's been crash 'n burn... and so does this... ain't a Charger that's burnin'!
