This is still my favorite season 4 episode because the entire cast of main characters gets in on it including Bonnie and RC 3 playing a major role Sure the camouflage.for KITT is a little hard to swallow but at the same time the stakes are high and the guest stars are also top notch and because of it it was a good fun episode
@@FirstDan2000 The reason it wasn't shown, is because they only had one SPM drive vehicle (the one with the extensions permanently welded in place that could be driven). The transforming version had no engine and was only used on a soundstage. Having KITT drive himself in SPM would've required them to make a blind drive version of the SPM car, which would've meant getting George Barris to make another one. And unfortunately, Knight Rider was ending so NBC didn't see it as being worth it. If it had continued for another few seasons, might've happened. Today they could just remote control a car, back then they had to have a special seat a stunt driver could sit in and drive the car (special steering wheel too) without being seen.
@@FirstDan2000 Not really, I'm not that much of an expert. Look up the Knight Rider Historians channel here on TH-cam. They know WAY more than me, and I've learned a lot from them. They also own two of the original cars used as KITT. There were...about 23 different Firebirds/Trans Am's used as KITT during the entire series, 5 survive today and they own 2 of them.
Walter Gotell and Kabir Bedi , two actors who appeared in James Bond films. While they both appeared in the same Bond film, Octopussy, Gotell appeared in 7 Bond films. First as a villain, Morzeny, in From Russia with Love, then 6 as General Gogol from The Spy Who Loved Me to The Living Daylights.
Please forgive the correction, but it's actually "pal" (not "pale"). With that being said, we all appreciate your uploads. Here's hoping for some clips from Goliath Returns.
2:18 Was someone working on Knight Rider a Ghostbusters fan by any chance? In the Season 3 episode, "Knights of the Fast Lane", there's a couple scenes where the theme tune can be heard playing from a radio😄
@Andrew Chapman I think the reason the Ghostbusters theme was playing in the episode is due to the fact that the episode was filmed in the same year that Ghostbusters was out on theaters, and the producers decided to feature that song because it was in the Top 10 of that year.
The villian that fell in the slim REALLY got hurt in that face plant. He tried to break his fall and the slim made his hand slide right out and he cracked his head on the floor theres no way that fall he didnt accidentally hurt himself really really hard.
I like that they just sped up slightly the video sequences for the Super Pursuit Mode scenes, like from 2:54 to 2:58 and from 3:09 to 3:14, to make KITT go faster. It's a simple trick, but still give a reasonable illusion of "super-speed" in my opinion.
There's no "e" in "pal." Also the episode is "Knight Sting" not "Knight String" as described in your TH-cam synopsis. Your spellchecker must have taken the day off?
I am a little confused, I thought by this time in the series Kitt had lost his molecular bonded shell, but here he seems to still have it? Can someone explain?
I think he got it back after The Juggernaut but before the next episode. It's not discussed (if i remember correctly), and happens off-camera. The Knight Rider Historians will probably get to this really soon.
@@FirstDan2000 I think it happened between episodes and we just accepted it as a given the next time KITT blew through a wall. Back when the show aired, I tended to not overthink it. 😄
He lost the molecular bonded shell in "Knight of the Juggernaut" because Devon had been kidnapped and he was one of the two remaining people who knew the pieces of the formula. Once he was rescued, they could make more of the formula. (Remember, pieces of the formula were originally divided among 3 people and any 2 of them could put their pieces together and recreate it. One was killed by Garthe Knight in "Goliath" but the other two survived.) There are multiple occasions in the fourth season where we see KITT either using or referencing the MBS. For example, in "Knight Flight to Freedom" he drives through lava and actually speaks about his shell. Clearly, he had his MBS back.
I was never a fan of the SPM mode. I still cannot work out on a technical basis if KITT was a single vehicle, where the hard roof would go in convertible mode if all of those turbo-engines were where the roof would store.
@@darrenbent7601 They must not stick in very far. If we try to be realistic about it, where do all the separation lines for the SPM protrusions disappear to in regular mode? Also when the rear turbo jets show up, the sides cut right in the middle of the outer tail lights, too. And the front scanner moves forward with the front bumper even though it’s mounted under the hood separately. Just remember this is a TV show from the 80s. It wasn’t intended to be scrutinized that closely.
@@scarfman4 - Looking back at it now, it really strikes me as a kid's show. It seems to have been geared towards an audience that also watched Saturday morning cartoons. I guess that's not surprising given its timeslot at the time, when family hour meant programming aimed at a young viewership.
The one thing you notice as an adult that you didn't when you kid is that almost every time that whenever they do the super pursuit mode there's never any pedestrians around
I thought they filled that canister with shaving crea-- Oh no wait, sorry, I'm thinking of Season 3's "Knight in Disgrace" where Michael suggested filling a canister in that episode with shaving cream. So I'm not really sure what they filled this canister with.
I was gonna say - did K.I.T.T. go so fast in Super Pursuit Mode that he swashed all his fuel up in his tank, started to feel sick and went a bit pale? Otherwise had no idea what this thumbnail title was supposed to mean.
I hope you hear this Hollywood,.... don't forget who gave you the idea either....lol. when are you going to wake up and realize that you need to do a fully reloaded, bullet-proof, 2022 or 2023 "Knight-Rider~ in pursuit of justice!??" (The movie!) With a brand new, totally sick K.I.T.T! You know you have to make this movie now.......🙂. Please! Just a reminder in case you lost your sense of imagination........ Knight-Rider. the movie~ do it!,...do it! $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Wow! Bonnie is looking very beautiful! 😍😍😍😍❤❤❤❤
Don’t forget the girl with Bonnie
You know, Micheal Knight's got a sense of humor .
“You’ve just been slimed” Sounds like a Ghostbusters reference to me
Yup
Probably was, or, it sounds like it was.
I love Bonnie's smile it really lights up my face.🙂
Kitt was a pioneer in intelligent assistant , " " "Alexa , play knight rider theme ! "
I always had a crush on Patricia McPherson before this episode, but her outfit in this episode was flat out awesome. What a gorgeous woman!!
I know seriously. That dress is KILLER man. KILLER
I saw that dress and I could say was Oh my God Bonnie!
pp
She was one of the prettiest women back in the 1980s! No lies!
Also take a look at Patricia McPherson Strut's outfit in Star Trek: The Next Generation; Angel One episode
3:00 - 80s TV via KITT foretelling GPS navigation. Classic!
"I'm afraid I'm started thinking of it as part of me" : The most human sentence I've ever heard from K.I.T.T. ♥️♥️♥️
i like how kitt melted his cover
That’s one way of “shedding its skin”. 😂
Super nice movie lovely Awesome 80s Air wolf knight Ryder superb
1:27 - This guy's WTF face should be a meme.
what’s a meme? 🤔
@@Chevroletcelebrity I don't know which comment I should laugh at more! 🤣🤣
That's Kabir Bedi a famous Indian actor, used to play a lot of bad guy roles back in the 80s and 90s.
Bonnie is Gorgeous especially in her white overalls !!
KITT (later): I'm the Knight Industries Two Thousand, not a tomato on wheels! XD
That line cracked me up
Sounds like KITT channeling his inner Dr. McCoy.
I used to watch Knight Rider religiously and I have no memory of Kitt's fancy shell.
6:33 Wow that ⭐️⭐️Legendry BGM⭐️⭐️
DAYUM....... Bonnie looks so incredibly 🔥 in that dress
Talk about girl power - brilliant the brains behind the car - Patricia McPherson.
KITT is amazing and looks great 👍☺️
2:44 - SUPER PURSUIT MODE
bonnie was one of my first crushes
I will never get over Bonnie in that dress.
Makes a change from the usual overalls
She's awesome! Michael with two 😅😅
You saw the dress ..me too scanned it with interest it was a nice walk through wherever I was..I was sleeping,
I think that kitt looked awesome in his new shell.!
😉👍
Would have been an Alternative for the Knight Rider 2000 Film.
Knight Sting was one of my favourite episodes, it was better than Voodoo Knight.
**IKR!!!!**
In any Case. It's bad anyway that such a horrible Episode as Voodoo Knight had to end the Series.
I have no recollection of this episode whatsoever. You'd think I'd remember Larry Storch, Bonnie looking smoking hot and the red slime.
michael and kitt had a sense of humor and they were both funny😊
Always wondered if KITT could activate SPM on his own and drive that was never shown
I know kitt can switch it off by himself, so it should be possible.
I agree it would have been nice to see.
Or convertible mode
@@FirstDan2000 The reason it wasn't shown, is because they only had one SPM drive vehicle (the one with the extensions permanently welded in place that could be driven).

**2:18 YOU'VE JUST BEEN SLIMED... IS THAT A ""GHOSTBUSTERS REFERANCE???"""
Definitely is: The movie was released just some months prior of this episode
2:15 that guy with the hat was in Columbo where he starts to panic while getting a lift in Columbos car.

Idk. about this, but KITT's scanner design and sound is not only take from Cylons in Battlestar Galactica, it also appears in Star Trek Voyager.
Sure seems like it. Ghostbusters is the only film that I know of that made “slime” a verb.
@@piotrmalewski8178
Which episode of Star Trek Voyager specifically did you hear KITT's scanner sound?
@Andrew Chapman

@@user-roninwolf1981 Ah okay. And maybe also the producers were fans too.
Patty was looking drop dead gorgeous in this episode !!!!
has michael ever used turbo boost while in super pursuit mode just wondering
SPM. 😎🏁💯
Excellent!
Thumbs up to Kitt, Michael ! ! ! !
The villian that fell in the slim REALLY got hurt in that face plant. He tried to break his fall and the slim made his hand slide right out and he cracked his head on the floor theres no way that fall he didnt accidentally hurt himself really really hard.
I thought that too. No way was that a normal stunt fall.
Sounds like a crack skull.

Unless you're feeling rather PALE lol
The mistakes are part of the charm.
Just like the show.
Knight Rider stinks a stinker screenplay. That's what he meant.
Or maybe their spellchecker is what's causing these spelling issues. I get the same problem on WhatsApp.
I've always had a crush on Bonnie
2:43 love that!
5:25 Slick 🔥🔥🔥
Well well it’s general Gogol from Bond and the same actor in TNG.
It's the same dock that they filmed the final scene with Oscar on Short Circuit 2 no?
Kabir Bedi😍😍😍
Bond villain henchman Gobinda in Octopussy.
@@AndrewChapman The Flying✈️ Sikh😁
Does Michael knight have a Apple watch?
It’s not pale it’s pal
Another another day, another criminal, and the Grills in the end for the mena...barbecue

It's him. The actor who plays General Gogol from James Bond (Moonraker, The Spy Who Loved Me and a View to a Kill.
Reminds me of inspector gadget.

Super pursuit mode. Physics breaking effect by creating more drag to go faster.
I was never a fan of the SPM mode. I still cannot work out on a technical basis if KITT was a single vehicle, where the hard roof would go in convertible mode if all of those turbo-engines were where the roof would store.
The engines are in the front, not the back.
@@scarfman4 Didn't the back turn into massive thrusters, where the roof folded in?

BEST DAYS!!!!

Did anyone else hear "he took Bonnie and *Gay* with him"?
Yes.
The hell..never seen this
Me too 😍😍😍😍😍
SUPER PURSUIT MODE!

Didn't they use that Mansion location in both Chariots of Gold & Knight of the Rising Sun?
Lesson to Baddies.... Never try to break into KITT

He has camel pens full of it.

Wat episode is this
Who you callin' "Pale?"
What exactly did he get away with the canister?
Air, it was empty.
