People didn't understand it when it aired in 1997, but NOW they will. Team Knight Rider really wasn't very Knight Rider, it was actually M.A.S.K. instead! Same characters, same missions, same vehicles.... everything except the helmets. They called themselves F.L.A.G. -- but it was a wink and a nod to M.A.S.K. every single time. Knight Rider fans relentlessly trashed it -- because this show flew right over their heads. But I grew up with Kenner M.A.S.K. toys, so I always knew what it was and really loved this show. I think it may be the MOST misunderstood series in all of TV history.
