Episode 1
Pilot
Knight Rider, the iconic 1980's television classic that became a runaway success, returns with a modern day sequel. The two-hour movie event stars Justin Bruening, Deanna Russo, Sydney Tamiia Poitier and Bruce Davison. In addition, David Hasselhoff - who starred in the popular lead role as Michael Knight for four seasons during the original series' run - returns as the same character during a special guest-star appearance.
Sarah Graimen (Russo) is a 24-year old Ph.D. candidate at Stanford University, following in her genius father Charles' footsteps. But when men attempt to abduct her, Sarah receives a mysterious call from KITT warning her that he's a creation of Charles, who also invented the first KITT 25 years ago -- and that her father is in serious danger.
Sarah and KITT track down her best friend from childhood, Mike Tracer (Bruening), a 23-year-old ex-Army Ranger, whom Sarah hasn't seen since he left home at 18. Having served in Iraq, Mike is now jaded and lost and initially resistant. Eventually he agrees to help Sarah and the two set out to find Charles and to discover who's behind the attempt to procure KITT.

I know that this is actually
I know that this is actually perfect thing to show to all. Rob Lowe plays the character Robert McCallister for the TV series Brothers and Sisters. There have been rumors circling that Lowe has desired off the show and in the Brothers and Sisters season finale 2010 he gets merely that. His personality has been possibly wiped out. Sadly for all you Lowe fans, he will no longer be showing up on the show, other than maybe in certain flash backs. In case you are a follower of his, just start watching, Parks and Recreation, and it is rumored you will see him there.
