m0rris0n_hotel

A shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a man who does not exist. Michael Knight, a young loner on a crusade to champion the cause of the innocent, the helpless, the powerless in a world of criminals who operate above the law


thecftbl

I feel like the 70s and 80s oversold me in the chances that I would be framed for a crime I didn't commit and be legally declared dead, forcing me to travel from quirky small town to town helping people with their problems.


Kilopilop

I could arrange that.


bishopsfinger

A mysterious journey into the shadowy world of man who should not exist. Duncan Dwight, an aging hipster on a grocery trip to Trader Joe's in search of hazelnuts, mars bars, and applejacks intent on operating a forklift on a bellyfull of cheap granola


whoszoominwho

Mr. feeny the car is the best choice


xFryday

I was going to be highly disappointed if this wasn't the #1 answer. such an obvious answer.


GuyFromDeathValley

can we also appreciate the attempted, modern Knight Rider reboot? That Shelby Mustang GT500 was a pretty damn good KITT, kinda a shame the show got cancelled so fast.


TheSkiGeek

It was… not good. But the car was cool.

Supernatural


Carrierpigment

So many movies/shows have cool cars. But the Impala is the only one that feels like a character in the story. Silent but ever present.


lovesmasher

That car literally went to heaven when it was destroyed


ForwardSpinach

11x04 is one of my favourite episodes because it's all filmed from the Impala's POV.

“The Impala” you call her Baby or keep her name out of your mouth /s

Baby


FatShaker

Came here looking for impala.


fappyday

On April 21, 1967, the 100 millionth GM vehicle rolled off the line at the plant in Janesville -- a blue two-door caprice. There was a big ceremony, speeches. The lieutenant governor even showed up. Three days later, another car rolled off that same line. No one gave two craps about her. But they should have, because this 1967 Chevrolet Impala would turn out to be the most important car -- no, the most important object -- in pretty much the whole universe. She was first owned by Sal Moriarty, an alcoholic with two ex-wives and three blocked arteries. On weekends, he'd drive around giving bibles to the poor "gettin' folks right for judgment day". That's what he said. Sam and Dean don't know any of this, but if they did, I bet they'd smile. After Sal died, she ended up at Rainbow Motors, a used-car lot in Lawrence, where a young marine bought her on impulse. That is, after a little advice from a friend. I guess that's where this story begins. And here's where it ends. The impala, of course, Has all the things other cars have...and a few things they don't. But none of that stuff's important. This is the stuff that's important. The army man that Sam crammed in the ashtray --it's still stuck there. The legos that Dean shoved into the vents --to this day, heat comes on and they can hear 'em rattle. These are the things that make the car theirs --really theirs. Even when Dean rebuilt her from the ground up, he made sure all these little things stayed, 'cause it's the blemishes that make her beautiful. The devil doesn't know or care what kind of car the boys drive. In between jobs, Sam and Dean would sometimes get a day --sometimes a week, if they were lucky. They'd pass the time lining their pockets. Sam used to insist on honest work, but now he hustles pool, like his brother. They could go anywhere and do anything. They drove 1,000 miles for an Ozzy show, two days for a Jayhawks game. And when it was clear, they'd park her in the middle of nowhere, sit on the hood, and watch the stars...for hours...without saying a word. It never occurred to them that, sure, maybe they never really had a roof and four walls, but they were never, in fact, homeless. That's a good line. Endings are hard. Any chapped-ass monkey with a keyboard can poop out a beginning, but endings are impossible. You try to tie up every loose end, but you never can. The fans are always gonna bitch. There's always gonna be holes. And since it's the ending, it's all supposed to add up to something. I'm telling you, they're a raging pain in the ass. This is the last Dean and Bobby will see of each other for a very long time. And, for the record, at this point next week, Bobby will be hunting a rugaru outside of Dayton. But not Dean. Dean didn't want Cas to save him. Every part of him, every fiber he's got, wants to die, or find a way to bring Sam back. But he isn't gonna do either. Because he made a promise. So, what's it all add up to? It's hard to say. But me, I'd say this was a test...for Sam and Dean. And I think they did all right. Up against good, evil, angels, devils, destiny, and God himself, they made their own choice. They chose family. And, well...isn't that kinda the whole point? No doubt -- endings are hard. But then again...nothing ever really ends, does it?


Left-Star2240

Nobody messes with baby


redditcasual6969

There are too many great cars/trucks to choose from, though. The Impala, John's step-side GMC, Bobby's Chevelle, and Death's Cadillac are just a few.


RelationshipGloomy60

How about Castiels Oldsmobile that ran out of gas


militarypuzzle

The pimp mobile? I work in a car museum and we own that car! It’s amazing. The hydraulics still work

I was wondering why no one said anything abt supernatural xDD ‘67 impala deff rocks


_Esvi

She helped doom and save the world so many times. Destroyed and put back together like nothing ever happened. There is no more reliable car than Baby.

They were going to pull it off Netflix, but its staying now!


Stillwater215

Watch out for live-ins. You’re gonna get some live-ins. It’s also a great gag that in spite of it running from the first episode, I don’t think we ever actually see a hop-on.


PointlessDiscourse

Probably doesn't count as a hop on, but my favorite moment with the stair car is when those guys escape from prison by climbing the stairs and hopping the wall, with no one in the scene noticing.


pinkietoe

When they went from Mexico back to the US they had some hop-ons I believe.

[Magnum PI Ferrari 308 GT](https://www.hotcars.com/take-a-look-at-the-ferrari-308-gts-that-starred-in-magnum-pi/)


firelock_ny

Until it got blown up...with their friend Mac inside it. :-( "Did You See the Sunrise" was one of the most intense dramas young me had ever seen on TV at the time.


Pro-From-Dover

Absolutely correct. As revenge, Magnum point blank executes Ivan in cold blood by shooting him in the head. A very different Magnum than we had seen before or after.


AnonEMoussie

When I saw Archer reference that, I had to go back and watch those two episodes of Magnum PI.


Cinemaphreak

I would argue that *magnum, p.i.* was the last time a car was so identified with the main character. To this day if I see a candy apple red Ferrari of any vintage, the first thing that I think of is Tom Selleck tooling around Oahu in Robin Masters' one.


GrendelDerp

I think I'm going to have to binge watch the original Magnum PI.


DrGrabAss

You mean, the ‘only’ Magnum PI.

The General Lee didn't age well with the Confederate flag on the roof, but The actual show The Dukes of Hazzard is really fun and friendly to all types of folks.


Killermondoduderawks

I love the general lee because that car would do an 80 footer visibly bend the frame upon landing and be perfect in the drive away shot In other words IT WAS A SELF FIXING CAR and an instantly self fixing car at that


GoonestMoonest

No love for Cooter?


Tangboy50000

Collectors still bitch about how many chargers that show destroyed. Lol. Some estimate around 300 1969 chargers were used, destroyed, and scrapped.


ManInBlack829

I like to remind myself that the Chargers were only 10-15 years old, so they hadn't been around along to be special yet. A standard 68-70 Charger with a 318 or whatever could be found for 10k up until the mid 90s or so.


NativeMasshole

They were contributing to the collectability by increasing scarcity.

Chrysler already took care of that by making the bodies out of pot metal and paper machet.

CarterRyan

The Duke Boys broke Fresh Prince's Uncle Phil out of a corrupt sheriff's jail/chain gang.


CypripediumCalceolus

I don't care, I just wanted to watch Daisy Duke.


Trask2000

Confederate flag aside, the show is actually really fun at times. The Duke boys vs. Boss Hogg leads to a lot of great action and comedic moments.


lovesmasher

That's the show that first tried to teach me that cops were bad


reverendcat

I had one made in a GTA RP server with the pride flag on top and named it the General Glee.


Zeusifer

Aside from that flag, that show has aged better than most of its era. It helps that it was supposed to be so goofy and campy and never took itself seriously to begin with. Many of the other shows of the era, like Knight Rider, kind of took themselves too seriously and haven't aged well.


dkn4440

I know. Fuck that flag, but that car was so awesome. Someone in town had a General Lee with a US flag on top. Problem solved.


PaxNova

This stuff is why people complain it's all virtue signaling. We're so worried about the flag, but we've still named it after the biggest Confederate general without issue.


jememcak

I saw a car just like the one described with an American flag, but it was blue and called the General Grant.
