Catch “Knight Rider” last night? Ya…me neither.

I did however catch our awesome 6 second spot, but then quickly deleted the TiVo’d episode. What can I say? It was just too horrible to sit and waste an hour on. But I do feel some kind of odd duty to post this VFXWorld article about the visual effects for the series.

Chalk it up to a slow VFX news day, but a busy delivery day at the studio.

With the success of the contemporized reboot of NBC’s Knight Rider as a two-hour movie event last spring, Michael Knight (Justin Bruening) and KITT are now back for weekly adventures starting Wednesday, Sept. 24 at 8 p.m. on NBC.

Gone is the 1982 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am KITT of old. Instead KITT (voiced by Val Kilmer) has been upgraded to a 2008 Ford Mustang GT500KR that’s fully loaded with artificial intelligence, biometrics, and morphing capabilities.
