Trivia / Team Knight Rider

• The Other Darrin:
  • KITT and Michael Knight made cameos in the series finale, but were played by stand-ins. While in KITT's case it was justified as him presenting himself as a hologram of a man (whose face was obscured), Michael also appearing with his face back to the camera pushes this into Fake Shemp.
  • Non-human actor example: Plato and Kat were replaced by more realistic motorcycles without explanation, and an even sillier-looking HSPV resulted.
• Out of Order: In the episode "EMP", a shielding against the titular weapon was installed on the cars. Later, in "Et Tu Dante", the team's mechanic was revealed to be a traitor. Then, in "The Return of Megaman", the team faces another EMP armed threat, and it turns out the new mechanic, as per his orders, had removed all suspicious parts from the cars - including the shielding. "EMP" aired 19th, "Et Tu Dante" 11th, "The Return of Megaman" 14th.
• What Could Have Been: Edward Mulhare was reportedly cast to reprise his role as Devon Miles in a recurring guest role, but his untimely death the same year the series premiered made this impossible.^note It's not exactly clear how this would have reconciled the fact that in his previous appearance in Knight Rider 2000, Devon was killed off. Considering that Knight Rider 2000, as its title implies, took place in the still-future year of 2000, it could be said that his appearance here took place before that, but it's easier to presume that Knight Rider 2000 would simply not been treated as canon (something which would later befell to Team Knight Rider itself).
