Using the success of this summer’s Transformers as a springboard, NBC is planning to resurrect the 80’s crimefighting drama Knight Rider.

In the new version, you can expect cars that will shift shapes, as well as evil cars to act as foils to K.I.T.T.  NBC plans to produce a telepic which will serve as a backdoor pilot for the series. 

No word as to whether the Hoff will return.
