No, both of mine are by a company called Playback (they also distribute a lot of UK TV shows on DVD). It looks like the new one is a 20 disc set by a company called Fabulous.

 

Wow!

HossC... I wonder why so many different companies and so many different disc set numbers.

There are probably several reasons. Firstly, I think my set came out in 2011 (it might be a later repackage as the original used full-size cases and mine uses the slimmer ones), so the distribution companies likely only have a certain number of years in their contract. When the new company takes over, they realise they can reduce their costs by compressing the video and squeezing more episodes onto fewer discs (mine has three episodes per disc like my Dukes set). Secondly, the US and Europe use different TV systems (NTSC and PAL), so the TV shows have to be converted when they cross the Atlantic.

How are yours laid out? Mine from Mill Creek Entertainment have slip cases. Pieces of cardboard with the discs in them. They pack 'em so you can see the Season number and disc number. The first sleeve of Season 1 is Season 1 Disc 1 and 2. Number 2 is in the back of number 1 and so on. That's how Mill Creek packed them.

Anyone else get sad when that battering ram vehicle the Jaggernaut destroyed KITT after that truck sprayed him with deneutralizer? 😢

I own the complete series on DVD as well as Knight Rider 2000 the tv movie from 91 but sadly that's a region 2 dvd so I e only been able to watch it a couple times. My brother actually bought me a Michael Knight "Tubz" over the weekend. They're like these officially licensed ducks based on characters

That sounds cool. Is it like one of those Funko Pops type things?

A company called WheelHouseTV is making a 5-part, 5-hour documentary called "Knight Rider: Declassified". It's set to feature interviews and behind-the-scene footage from the 1980s show, and then be released on a limited blu-ray and streaming. The weird thing is that the interviewees include John Schneider, Tom Wopat and Catherine Bach. More info here.
