There were many spinoffs from the original series such as "Knight Rider 2000" and "Team Knight Rider" in 1998. Also one more installment of a spin-off aired in 2008 starring Justin Bruening as Michael Knight which only lasted one season.

As far as K.I.T.T. - the super intelligent, self driving car returning, there is no word yet on which vehicle will be selected or who will be the voice. It was reported that David Hasselhoff is working with Director James Gunn who was on board with the idea of bringing back the series.

Hasselhoff told TMZ:

"We're talking about doing a full blown TV series and we're working on the rights right now. It really came out of my relationship with James and the fact that he watched the show when he was 8 years old. It was crazy. I had this idea for a long time and James just jumped on it and all of a sudden out of his mouth was 'I'm trying to get the rights to do it."
