4.0 out of 5 stars "Engage Turbo DVD, KITT", October 27, 2008

By	Starbase 101 (Boise, ID USA) - See all my reviews

I realize a lot of people out there don't like Knight Rider, but this review isn't for them! (They shouldn't even be looking at this product description if they're not interested in the show.) Apparently enough people DO like the show, since there's a new Knight Rider series airing on NBC and the release of this new boxed set.

The box is awesome...at least until the shrinkwrap is removed (reason why in a moment). This is by far one of the coolest box designs for a DVD set. Press a button at the lower-right, and a red LED scanner effect turns on with a few (very short) seconds of the show's theme music. I do think Universal should have spent a few pennies more to lengthen the audio sample. It would also have been "neater" if the effect was triggered by opening the box rather than by a push-button switch, even if it means giving up the demo "Try Me" feature for people who haven't purchased it yet.

The bad news about the packaging is a cardstock sheet on the back which is NOT affixed to the box. (Normally this kind of artwork is attached with glue dots, but not this time.) There are printed instructions for changing the LED batteries on the back of this card, and it's too big to fit inside the box after opening. So...what to do with it?? Battery instructions (and possibly a disc index) should have been printed on a card attached to the inside of the box, and the outer cardstock should have been attached to the box. Why is this an issue? Well, I for one consider packaging to be part of the product, not simply a "container" for the discs.

The discs themselves are in slim DVD cases, two discs per case, and they're single-sided encodings! Finally, fans can watch Knight Rider episodes on DVD without the technical flaws and stalls inherent with double-sided discs. There are also lots of bonus features not included with the original releases. Notably missing from the bonus features, however, are bloopers, gag reels, and NBC promotional spots. Since the size and price of this item clearly suggests it being targeted at fans, material that fans would be interested in (such as outtakes, interviews, KITT guest spots and cameos, etc.) would have been a nice addition, even at a slightly higher price.

If you're a fan of the show and haven't bought the individual season DVDs yet, get this set instead. If you've already bought the individual seasons (as I had), get this set anyway to replace the inferior double-sided discs. Even with this set's shortcomings, it's still nicely done.

4.0 out of 5 stars UNIVERSAL STUDIOS CONTINUES REDEMPTION, August 25, 2008

By	JACK LOBO "ljb926" (Greenwich,CT USA) - See all my reviews

This is the second series I'm aware of that Universal is re-releasing, this time on single sided discs. The other is The Munsters. Amazon states 24 discs. I hope that's not an error. Considering the original release was 13 discs, 12 flippers and a single sided bonus disc in season 1, this is definately a good thing. This is the show about Michael Knight and his super hightech somewhat indestructible car that can talk and drive by itself. Working for FLAG the Foundation for Law and Government, they travel around most of the country, protecting the helpless. But the operative Michael Knight would rather do the driving most of the time. Back in 1982 when this show premiered and for many years afterwards the technology was considered fantasy. But with advanced computer electronics, Onstar, kevlar, and carbon pressed metals, a car like K.I.T.T. could become a reality. The only fantasy left and will probably continue is that a PONTIAC can actually last 4 years (the run of the series) without a major breakdown. And have you ever noticed none of the episodes took place in the snow. Why? Because Firebird, Trans-Ams are worthless in the snow. I love this show but I hate Pontiacs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hasselhoff Fans' Delight, June 30, 2009

By	O. Reyes - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The box set is great. Any Knight Rider fan will love it. The special features are fun to watch. The packaging is sleek and compact with a working light across the bottom, just like KITT.
The sellers I dealt with were class A. I had a problem with delivery and they cleared up it pronto.
