Knight Rider var en amerikansk TV-serie med David Hasselhoff i huvudrollen. Serien hade premiär den 26 september 1982 och det sista avsnittet visades den 4 april 1986. När den först sändes i SVT under 1980-talet kallades den Nattens riddare. Serien handlade om Michael Knight (David Hasselhoff), en slags nutida "riddare" – och engelska knight betyder just 'riddare' – som körde en smart och avancerad bil med egen intelligens. Serien skapades och producerades av Glen A. Larson och var inspirerad av genren high-tech-brottbekämparserie. "Jag ville göra The Lone Ranger fast med en bil, en slags scifi-sak, med westernstuk" sa Larson i en intervju. Den blev snabbt en stor hit. År 2008 utkom en nyinspelning av TV-serien, Knight Rider, med Justin Bruening i huvudrollen.
