David Hasselhoff is in talks to appear on NBC's
"Knight Rider," reprising his role as Michael Knight
from the original series.
Additionally, "The Young & the Restless" co-star
Deanna Russo has landed the female lead in the
movie / backdoor pilot opposite fellow soap star
Justin Bruening.

"Rider," from UMS and Dutch Oven Productions, is a
sequel to the 1980s series that centers on Mike
Tracer (Bruening), Michael Knight's son who never
knew his dad.
Burned by his love for childhood best friend and
one-time girlfriend Sarah Kamen (Russo), Mike is
wasting away in Las Vegas when Sarah reappears and
is willing to pay off Mike's gambling debt in
exchange for help.
Sarah is the brilliant estranged daughter of KITT
inventor Charles Kamen, who works as an assistant
professor in the engineering department at Stanford.
When she receives word from talking-car KITT (Knight
Industries Three Thousand) that her father is missing,
she and KITT set out to find and recruit Mike.
Hmmm... Hasselhoff's involvement and the "sequel" tag (if done
properly) MIGHT keep them clear of making too many idiotic changes, but
we'll have to wait and see. I still don't like this "transformer"
nonsense.
