I am very sad William Daniels is nowhere to be found.
Maybe he refused on principle?
They should have hired a sound-alike. Sheesh, people. The CAR'S VOICE wouldn't be freakishly eighties.
Angel's lame. His hair goes straight up, and he's bloody stupid!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Well, Val was a last minute replacement. Turns out the original voice actor had a contract doing voiceover work for commercials with another car company (the original one, I think) and when push came to shove, decided to keep his commercial work rather than keep his voice on the pilot movie, and if any resulting series.
Seems like a wise decision to me...

I didn't watch the movie, and now I'm glad I didn't. They lost me at CHANGING THE MOTHERFUCKING CAR.

As I recall, he didn't have a choice. His contract with the previous company agreed that he would not work with a rival company

So the parties involved are admitting that it was nothing more than a 2 hour Ford commercial?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
The actor whose contract precluded voicing KITT was Will Arnett. I was surprised to learn he was the voice of GMC trucks, but I do FF through a lot of commercials.

And to bring it back round to soap talk, the lead in the Knight Rider movie played Tad's son, Jamie Martin, on All My Children. He is also married to Alexa Havens, who played his on-screen love interest Babe on AMC.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Who voices the Lexus commercials? I always feel like I should know who that is.

Huh. It's probably the 2nd guy, but neither is who I was expecting.
