Pop Culture Updates: KITT Comes Off the Block and Britney Gets Ready for the Hot Seat

Bad news for all you “Knight Rider” fans hoping to ride into 2008 behind the wheel of a talking car. As I mentioned in a previous blog an original KITT (the chatty car that helped David Hasselhoff escape bad guys on the ’80s TV series “Knight Rider”) was put up for sale on eBay. Unfortunately, the black 1984 Pontiac Trans Am has now been yanked from the popular Internet auction site by the previous owner’s attorney because he says he’s had more inquiries than he can handle. The legendary car is being sold to satisfy the debts of slain real … Continue reading →

The Ultimate Christmas Present for “Knight Rider” Fans

Is there anyone who watched the popular ’80s TV series “Knight Rider” and didn’t want to have a KITT car of their own? I remember watching the show as a kid with my brothers. During the commercial breaks my two oldest brothers would grab their own Hot Wheels vehicles and pretend the cars could talk just like the black 1984 Pontiac Trans Am that helped David Hasselhoff escape the bad guys on TV. If I were independently wealthy I would try to make my brothers’ boyhood dreams come true this Christmas by purchasing one of the original KITTs for them. … Continue reading →

Juicy Hollywood Gossip: Bobby Brown and David Hasselhoff Hospitalized and Is Pamela Pregnant?

David Hasselhoff Hospitalized He was only briefly hospitalized yesterday, but it appears as if actor and reality show host David Hasselhoff has fallen off the wagon again. He reportedly checked into Cedars-Sinai yesterday for alcohol poisoning. He was released later that day and his representatives say he is now home and doing well. If you remember, the Hoff was in trouble earlier this year for excessive drinking. He temporarily lost visitation to his two daughters in May after the youngest one filmed him while on a bender.

This Week in Television – June 12, 2007

Top Chef Returns I will be the first to admit that I love most reality shows. Whether it is something mainstream like “American Idol” or something a little more off beat like “Little People Big World,” I just love watching reality shows. One of my favorites returns to the air tomorrow night – “Top Chef.” Unlike other reality shows, I never watch the clock on this one. It seems as soon as it starts, it is time for it to end – too soon! This year the chefs are in Miami, so I wonder if we can look forward to … Continue reading →

“Sex and the City” Girls to Work Together Again Woohoo! It looks like one of my favorite shows, HBO’s “Sex and the City” have a followup movie made after all. “Sex and the City” ended its very successful six-year run on HBO in 2004, but fans clamored for more. They weren’t ready to let go of the girls – writer and fashion plate Carrie, hopeless romantic Charlotte, mom and lawyer Miranda, and sexy PR siren Samantha – whom many fans had come to consider their own girlfriends. Right after the series ended, there were talks of a movie, but reports … Continue reading →

Hasselhoff Loses Visitation Rights Actor turned reality show judge David Hasselhoff has temporarily lost visitation rights to see his two daughters after one filmed him while drunk. An emergency order was filed by Hasselhoff’s ex-wife Pamela Bach and a family court judge suspended his rights to see his daughters until May 21. Bach’s attorney has asked the court to force Hasselhoff into alcohol rehab before he can see his daughters again. The video was taken earlier this year and Hasselhoff’s lawyer has admitted the actor has struggled to stay clean and is taking steps to make sure a relapse does … Continue reading →

What Is It About David Hasselhoff?

Sure, growing up my brothers and I never missed an episode of “Knight Rider.” And, I confess, I did watch “Baywatch” for a couple of seasons… but what is it about David Hasselhoff that makes him so irresistible to so many? He has reached superstar status as a singer overseas, though his success in the music industry hasn’t carried over to the United States. Yet, I continue to see Hasselhoff on commercials, in magazines, in the “American Idol” audience and making the rounds on the talk show circuit. In addition, he is currently making headlines in the States as a … Continue reading →
