Knight Rider ran in the United States from 1982 to 1986, following former police detective Michael Knight and KITT, an artificially intelligent car that could talk and drive itself. In Italy, the series was broadcast as Supercar, which is why this closing theme is often labelled with that title by Italian fans. The short clip captures the end credits music rather than dialogue, making it easy to reuse as an outro. Its lasting appeal comes from the show's place in 1980s popular culture, especially among viewers who remember KITT's voice, scanner light and high-tech gadgets.
