'80s kid over here. We had, hands down, THE BEST tv shows-and Knight Rider was one of them!
Along with Dukes of Hazzard, Hunter, and Miami Vice. Wow, what a combo!
@@robertbeckman2054 100% agree! Awesome shows with awesome characters and storylines!
2000 kids here *deppressed* «yeah»
The past has it’s perks but the first 20 years of the new millennium are worth a watch
@@general1635 yeah........
That iconic synth line with THAT base tho. Even after all those years still sounds fresh and badass!
I remember when Busta Rhymes used it for one of his songs.
Even 40years passed still Knight Rider theme Music 🎶 is pulling our attention no matter what are we busy with, that’s insane.
God bless the 1980's, we had an awesome time growing up the best TV shows, hands down.
The Turbo Boost sound will go down in history as one of the greatest sounds ever
I swear it will!!! Lol
I totally agree I love the turbo boost
yes its right up there with the star trek door opening sound and the airwolf roar
Man just Kitts red radar glow makes that iconic sound;
*VHOO VHOO- VHOO VHOO!!*
@@catnium Don't forget the Wilhelm scream
Can we all agree that Knight Rider has like the best intro theme music.
It's soo good and I can listen to it without ever getting tired of it.
you can listen this all day and still would be the same as first one ... i mean it will never get bored like some tv intros do ... :)
Still the best intro and theme song ever made
Me to I Here it 1’00000000 times
Facts
Street Hawk better
RIP Edward Mulhare. Even now, you are missed.
Best actor on the show really....
@@pex_the_unalivedrunk6785 absolutely! Classically trained.
He's gone??!
@@leonardobraynen1524 He died on May 24, 1997.
@@leonardobraynen1524 yes it's real and true he died
THIS THEME WILL ALWAYS ROCK FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pretty iconic!
🤙🏿🔥
Seasons 2, 3, 4: Normal funky tempo
Season 1: *I AM SPEED*
Seasons 2, 3, 4 sound as is they slowed the music by 10%. Or was the recording of season 1 simply glitched? Maybe it was recorded in PAL and the framerate improperly converted?
Exactly what I was thinking. Slow your roll, Season 1.
Thats wasn't season 1. That was the first episode only. You might have spotted there was a cast member missing. True season 1 wasn't included.

Knightrider ... One of best 80's TV shows ever made, never gets old no matter how many times you watch it 🚗👌
Favorite childhood live-action series. Best theme music ever!
I loved Knight Rider but some other shows had equally good intros. Airwolf was great and so was Fall-guy.
I like Airwolf's theme better, but no show's intro theme will ever match Miami Vice. Ever!
@Mark P. Airwolf was bigger than Knight Rider at one point.
Jan-Michael Vincent was the highest paid actor on TV.

@Mark P. Dude, WHAT?
@@picallo1 Air Wolf was Jan Michael Vincent! The other guy blew!
"KNIGHT RIDER, a shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a man, who does not exist. Michael Knight, a young loner on a crusade to champion the cause of the innocent, the helpless, the powerless, in a world of criminals who operate above the law."
"One man can make a difference Michael."
That voice alone deserves an Oscar medal or some kind of award, such an epic voice!
@@The12thDimension. the voice sounds like Wilton Knights eerily
@@The12thDimension. it's legendary. I think it's actually Wilton knight from the pilot . If you listen carefully
@@bruh_oly1370 It is the Voice from Wilton.
Back in the days when TV intros went on a minute plus, a fantastic theme and so on. When I was younger I saw this not long after seeing repeats of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, have me a firm admiration for Richard Basehart. Incredible voice.
Remember the original Macguyver?
Wow! I'm 39 and this brings back all the best memories. I still love the show now..
Patricia McPherson's hair was phenomenal
she also had a great body and a very cute face!.
I don’t think she had a “great” body. Her chest was as flat as a board. She had a weak Brie Larson butt. Basically her curves were modest at best. Her chin was square and chiseled like the comic book Dick Tracy. McPherson was not glamorous which is one of the reasons she was fired. And Rebecca Holden was brought in when the show felt pressure from Dallas, a prime time soap opera drama known for its abundance of beautiful female cast members. Holden was sexy and had a very womanly body. She was Playboy Playmate Of The Month material. The only reason she left after appearing in only the show’s second season was because David Hasselhoff threatened to leave the show if McPherson was not rehired. I have to admit the chemistry between Hasselhoff and McPherson was better than he had with Holden however Holden was a higher grade actress with damn good looks.
@@1977TA I'm yet to find someone who liked Holden better than McPherson. Holden is perfect on a calendar but McPherson is knight rider's finest.
Looks aside, I think most would agree that Bonnie fit the part alot better than April did. April's personality and the lines they gave her to say really didn't square with someone keyed into servicing & repairing the most sophisticated vehicle and electronics of their time.
Bonnie was better
All four of the introductions to the Knight Rider television show were so amazingly awesome,classical and downright timeless.
The 80s had the best tv action drama intros. The perfect recipe of badass imagery, innovative music, cool, pretty ppl being cool & pretty & just enough cheesy ham to balance it out. 😁👍👏✌
The season 2 Turbo Boost montage will always be my favorite part.
It was every kids dream to own a car like kitt one day.
Meanwhile, KITT dreamed about owning children...
Still is.
i have a 1987 corvette convertible. feels just like KITT due to the gauges inside with the same visuals!
Right, and I don't even care about cars, but I'm in love with Kitt since I was a little girl...😍😍
Im 13 and can confirm this
I always love the sound effect they used for the accelerator petal in season 3. The LED’s were a nice touch
“Michael Knight, a lone crusader in a dangerous world. The world of the KNIGHT RIDER.” I love this show and the theme song. I hear it in my head everyday.
That isn't said in the titles though.
@@catrionacolville2192it's said at the end in season 1
This is my childhood right here Man!!!! My parents knew not to fool with me as a 5yr old when this came on. *KITT* Was life man!
Wilton: Michael Knight, a young loner-
KITT: am I a joke to you?
Its at 69 likes. Let's hope nobody else likes this comment
@@cj.59 It's Too late for that.
One day you will be a real boy, Kitt.
KITT: Acting is a skill you don’t possess Michael - I hope you can sing Michael.
I have watched this show since it first aired. I fell in love with K.I.T.T and all his quirks. The bond that he and Michael share and how it developed each season made me keep watching. Wish it didn’t end after 4 seasons.
Genius. One of the few things from the past that lives up to the nostalgia.
One of my favorite television action/adventure show to watch growing up in the nineteen eighties Knight Rider was was so totally awesome throughout it's entire four season run!
Awesome tune, amazing car and The Hoff.
It's got epic written all over it.
The year was 1986.
I was 4 years old and the theme music played. That’s when I learned about setting priorities! ;-). So thankful for a wonderful time for a show that rocked my world as a kid.
Season 1-2 will always be my favourite seasons. The dash and everything
That’s one theme song you can’t and won’t get tired of hearing play back to back
The first few seconds already gave me goosebumps. Man do i love this show
I didn't start smiling until the season 2 opening shown here. The tempo was not as rushed and it better fit the driving rhythm I came to love as a kid. I started smiling extra for season 4, but was disappointed with no spm at the end.
Bay watch and Knight rider are my favourite David Hasselhoff tv shows
Brilliant theme tune.Brilliant car and show as well.
Now I'm going to have the Knight Rider theme song in my head for days. 😎
Lol
Cool! Same here!!!
😂😂😂😭
Thx to the beloved tv creator and his collaborator Stu Phillips.
Definitely one of the top 3 best themes and crime fighting show from the 80s
2:02 - Rebecca Holden is my favorite. I love her smile.
Yeah she was a lot more prettier, sexier and feminine than Patricia McPherson.. but she wasnt very believable in the role. She just seemed like a pretty barbie playing mechanic. Patricia Mcpherson was more convincing as an engineer.
This program was the best car commercial ever conceived... Knight Rider was the first view most people had of the new generation Trans Am for '82, and I remember being blown away by it.
Ah, it just NEVER gets old. I LOVE it!!! LOL
Michael Knight a loner? That guy had more girls than most guys have in a harem! Also, most criminals operate above the law.
Douglas Hall 😂🤣😅😆. Loved the comment! However, the criminals who do operate above the law rarely get caught or do time.
Well u can say Michael operate above the law which made him a Vigilante like Batman.
Was Michael considered criminal?
Sounded good though, especially voiced over those incredible desert shots.
Having to live under a different name and personality, that of a dead dude, "loner" sorta could fit
Well he kind of was a Loner, like Batman. He didn't have anyone when he changed identity, only until later were Devon and Bonnie seen as fiends and trusted. The women he met rarely lasted beyond an episode.
So nice to hear Richard Basehart's voice to intro S2 onwards. I first saw Edward Mulhare on TV in England in 'The Ghost and Mrs Muir' back in the early 70's. Both very fine actors of their day.
Yes, I like it so much.
You heard it in season 1 too. Thats wasn't season 1. That was the first episode only. You might have spotted there was a cast member missing. True season 1 wasn't included here.
@@finenebula your right there it was only the pilot that had the missing Wilton knight narration . After that trust doesn’t rust etc or any episode they included the narration of wiltons . I still can’t figure or favour one over the other each is as mysterious and awesome as the next .
That's right in the pliot episode.
"KNIGHT RIDER IS & ALWAYS BE ONE OF MY FAVOURITE TELEVISION SHOWS OF ALL~TIME
This never gets old!
This is *IMMORTAL!*
I can watch this ALL DAY!
Greatest show ever!!! Every monday at 6 I was watching this on tv as a kid. Wow I love the 80s
This theme song is fantastic and passes the test of time!
I used to watch this with my uncle, we never miss an episode
Season 4 .. Super Pursuit Mode
Wisnu Adiputra I love Super Pursuit Mode.
Season 4... token black guy.
They messed up with Season 4 , Peter Parros character was not needed . He seems like a great guy ! but their was no reason they needed a new character . Hoft -Mulhare-Mcpherson were the cast ! and had the best chemistry
Season 2 by far! For Rebecca Holden alone 😍 but then adding those car jumps....sold! 🤩
Those were turbo boosts
Van figher Bus
What happened to her character?
From Season 2 onwards, the intro was pure *FIRE!* I miss those days.
This still gives me goosebumps watching.
A series like this will never come again .. Love you all
I remembered the first season there was no voiceover but when it was added made it more sinister awesome.
Do you mean series's
@@haikealmy6060 In American TV, a show has seasons - series, show, and program are all synonyms.
The thing is that Michael doesn’t really sell as “a man who does not exist” - he always hangs around the same part of California, introduces himself to anyone who seems interesting, and drives an extremely distinctive car.
@@ericssmith2014 I think that phrase was really for the first pilot episode because it made sense.
Plus the narrator also played as William Knight who was in the pilot.
brings back very good memories where things were much more simple and easy going. We had knight rider, airwolf, A team, Mission Impossible.
OMG I'm crying. This was the best tv series and the best soundtrack ever
This was the greatest show omg yess 💞
KITT with super pursuit mode literally puts all the cars from the Fast series to same.
@@douglasmckenzie3324 dude *KITT* was like the *CAPTAIN AMERICA* OF cars man! KITT was a *SUPER CAR* so even tho Dom & Co had NOS, they still decades behind KITT
Yes it was Crazy Chick, yes it was. This came on the 80s and i love in the future of That in 2020;
And this show has YET to be duplicated! How crazy is that????!
I agree KITT had insane Artificial intelligence. He was like Data put into a Car
That music is timeless.
Good 80s style action show.
Actually gave Dallas some competition for a couple years.
Great theme.
I liked that both Michael and Kitt had evil twins but they never fought them at the same time.
Andrew Gordon my thoughts exactly. However that was used in the Knight Rider video game. Garth drove KARR.
@Maximus Prime
Michael's face is actually based off of Wilton's Knight face not Garth's. It's not easy to tell because Wilton was in his 80's when they did the surgery on Michael Long. Watch the first episode again.
I love ❤️ this 80’s Classic Series Knight Rider 🚘
Both my sons love watching this one is 7 the other is nearly 2. I still watch it myself and I'm 43 now
This show was my life when I was a kid
I really truly honestly do love Knight Rider with all of my heart . I love the people who played in the series but there's 1 thing that I didn't like it was when they took the series off . I really truly honestly do believe that the fans of Knight Rider hated it just as much as I did . But I don't believe that there could be anyone who could do the acting like the original people could . I would give a thumbs up over a million times over to the series .
I feel Colleen. I mean KNIGHT RIDER was literally LITERALLY my entire life in the 80s! However, everything GREAT must come to an end. At least we had multiple seasons of this show. If this existed today i sadly doubt it would last more than a season in favor of the next ratchet *LOVE & HIP HOP* show.
Love hearing that theme tune.
Have you ever noticed that the Knight Rider theme is strangely similar to the music from the movie 'Escape from New York'?
I have it as a ring tone 🤗
Ear and eye candy!! Miss the 80s...
This show sure brings back memories growing up in the 80s !😊
Knight Rider it's my favorite series
Knight Cyborg Karaïban Mine too.
@sadiq2008 Same.
Knight Rider & CHiP's
Damn, I miss 80s tv!
I liked when K.I.T.T. went from flashing red box to three flashing lines.
My All time favorite program wonderful superb great. David hassallhoff. Childhood memories
watch this show with my uncle in 2018
Ah the memories!
I used to watch this show with my grand father. It’s been 32 years since seeing this. Thanks to Walmart Pickup commercial and to you.
loving this series so much. this year i still watching their series even i watch from the clips only.
after all those years when I hear that theme I am worked up immediately !!!! Now I need to see some action going on !!!!
Gawd damn! This video gets me pumped up for this show. Just from this video I'm itching to rewatch my box set even though I already did early this year.
There is never an excuse not to watch it again :)
francois gervais so true
I was born in 85 and I loved this show as a kid. I just finished Mr. Robot and my mind was blown when they brought this intro up and even played it 😅
Iconic television series of the fabulous '80's.
you left out the Super Pursuit Mode part of season 4... a major mistake.
You can say that again. I thought I missed one when I saw this video the first time
Patrick Peralta also the “c” button in the beginning of season 4 intro
This cannot be forgiven.
They did not want to give away the SPM transformation until after KITT had been destroyed and rebuilt. When the season 4 premiere episode “Knight Of The Juggernaut” originally aired, it was in the form of a two hour made for TV movie. They used the intro without the SPM scenes to keep the upgrade a secret. Viewers did not see the SPM transformation intro until the second episode of season 4 aired. For syndication the 2 hour season 4 premiere movie was cut into separate 1 hour episodes. Both used the intro shown here. The purpose of this video is to show all original KR season premiere intros. Keep in mind that the season 4 SPM transformation intro is a secondary version. However it is remembered as the standard season 4 intro so I agree it should have been used for this compilation.
@@1977TA , thanks for the info. your right the SPM version is the best remembered intro to season 4. after the original run of the series....... in reruns the SPM version intro is used for Episode 1.
My All time favorite program childhood legend superb forever love this All time
Here we are 2022 and still the best intro ever, who's with me???
Que buena serie, trae a mi memoria grandes recuerdos de mi infancia. Saludos desde Chile.
KNIGHT RIDER FOREVER
It's pretty amazing how in 2020 the KITT trans am still looks more futuristic than anything else ever made. The design is just legendary.
Definitely my number one most favourite show & will always be my number one favourite show forever. Love this show and definitely will never get tired of watching this show. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Whooouuhh---Whooouuhh!! The red lights in the front. A most famous car in the history. Its beautiful. 2019
Thank you season two for Rebecca Holden.
Patricia McPherson was better in my opinion
@@kevin5164 agreed.
I remember the ’83 Intro most, that was when I really became a fan.
2021 old school never get old believe that 🛡️👊👊👊 knight rider for life 👊
Street hawk and knight rider is one of my favourite TV show in 80's. Thanks
i love that show i watch that show everynight
I always liked how the used Wilton Knight's voice to narrate the last 3 intros. Didn't seem the same in Season 1.
Thank you so much 💓 for creating this KNIGHT RIDER ❤ Channel!!
The new serious narrator, a scantily clad hot costar, and back-to-back-to-back-to-back turbo boost jumps?? Season 2 gets my vote as the best intro of the four!!
I Love Bonnie in that red jumpsuit, and April ;) :)
Physically, April was hotter than Bonnie. However, Patricia McPherson was very attractive. She had that hot, 80s smart chick look and much better on screen chemistry with the Hoff.
Ehhh. Maybe it's just me, but as a kid, I always found Bonnie hotter than April. But then again, I do like brunettes, sooo...
@@DragoonMS Same. So I'm going to agree with you.
they were both fit just in different ways
Bonnie had a cute face, but no body at all, just so plain, nothing really stands out, she never did it for me, April was waaay hotter! Although i do agree she was a better fit for the role, as much as i like April, Bonnie just fit the character better, look wise, April blows her away, no contest.
@@bozotheclown169 I agree despite doing the same job, they had very different personalities and interactions, I got the impressions Devon held Bonnie's intellect and character in higher regard as a colleague and the relationship to April wasn't quite like that she seemed more like an employee & less of an "expert" - I got the impression Bonnie understood every little bit of KITT, where as April was nearly as capable - she looked more like she knew how to fix him more than how to rebuild him from scratch - but I don't think she was exactly bad at her job - she was still MIT grade top of her class smart - just in a different way. Bonnie seemed more Practical science playing at engineer where as Bonnie to me seemed more like an Engineer with a good understanding of science. But that might be just the impression I got and not what the show intended.
That "swoosh" sound the scanner bar makes... And the hum of the turbine. Simple sounds, yet so very effective. And then there's the car itself. Like for so many millions out there KITT has been my dream car for my whole life :D
Absolutely Fantastic!! 😉👍😉👍
love this :)))
