Knight Rider in TVGuide this week

TVGuide's Sci-Fi preview is out this week, and SpoilerTV was the first to bring us this clipping from the issue about Knight Rider. This might be potential spoilers, but Gary Scott Thomspon let loose a few details about improvements to KITT and how things might work in the new series.

Knight Rider (Premieres Wednesday, 9/24, 8/7c, NBC) In February's TV-Movie update of the '80s supercar show, fans got a new KITT, a Ford Mustang driven by Justin Bruening and voiced by Val Kilmer. Now comes the caboodle, as the ongoing series further tricks out it centerpiece. "The car's windshield turns into a touch screen you can interact with while driving 300 miles an hour," executive producer Gary Scott Thompson says. Bruening's Mike Traceur will give up some secrets about his past as an Iraq War vet, and three additional characters join the cast, including techie Billy Morgan (Paul Campbell of Battlestar Galactica). "It won't just be like Michael Knight calling Devon from jail when he needed help," Thompson says. "They'll be pulling off missions as an actual team." -- Tom Russo

SpolierTV has also been pretty forthcoming with information about the first three episodes of Knight Rider. You can check them out here.
