Whether it was down to getting all nostalgic or because I thought my own children would like it, I eventually got round to purchasing the Knight Rider DVD featuring the pilot episode.

The quality of the DVD is second to none and the opening theme music can still pass for a modern tune (Buster Rhymes to thank for that).

A young David Hasselhoff plays the lone crusader aided by the car of all cars, K.I.T.T. and backed up by the typically English Devon Miles. Without revealing the details of the episodes, all of which are superb, I can say that if it's damsels in distress, big, tough bad guys, a lot of humour and the traditional big car chase towards the end of each episode, this is the DVD to watch. The acting was far from wooden and the story lines well written. If I was n't hooked on Knight Rider before, I am now.

Just received the DVD and I was astonished by the superb quality of both sound and image. This is a must-have. Can't wait for other DVD's.

It has been more than 10 years that i first watched Knight Rider on TV, and every time since then when it is on tv i always watch it. Now i have the chance to own it on DVD, as i always wanted to. I sure hope that the whole series is released on DVD, it worths it. It is a good thing to know that the original Knight Rider still lives. It will certainly live for ever in my memories as it is one of the best - if not the greatest - series of the 80's.

The main idea behind Knight Rider is the way man and machine (an AI driven muscle car, by the name of KITT) interact to fight those criminals operating above the law. It is a really good, fun to watch movie, with a lot of action as well as with moments of humour.
