Our topic:

David Hasselhoff


Our debate (for or against):

David Hasselhoff is more widely known for his role in Knight Rider than he is for his role in Baywatch.


You may commence.

 

[Doth Togo]

No, Hasselhoff is known for his Wayne Newton-esque singing talent.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

you, sir, are an ignoramus. Baywatch was seen in over 60 million countries all over the nation. I believe it was Kant who said "Night Rider had the voice of the guy from Boy Meets World as the car". Doesn't that say it all?

The subject to be debated is in no way affiliated with the feelings/thoughts of the poster.

Carry on.

How could anyone forget Baywatch Nights?

...easily

 

[ToxicAdam]

How can you have a Hasslehoff thread .. and NOT POST PICTURES??!!

 

[hobart]

The poster did not post pictures in order to show his unbiased nature to the debate in total.

The poster does feel for your point, however, and it is noted.

Carry on.

I remember him from knight rider, mainly because I'd always watch that show and never watched Baywatch. I was too young then to appreciate the bouncy nature of Baywatch.

If there's one thing we can agree on, it's this:

Germans love David Hasselhoff.

 

[ToxicAdam]

Although, David Hasslehoff had a starring credit in Baywatch .. he was not the star of the show. Fine actresses like Pamela Anderson, Nicole Eggert and Jasmine Bleathe (sp?) were the real stars of the show.

The Hoff was the sole star of Knight Rider and carried that bitch to ratings supremecy.

Taken from the Knight Rider FAQ : http://www.fortunecity.com/lavender/poitier/1005/id114.htm

For the 1982-1983 season, the average share was 25. It was ranked No. 2 in the TVQ ratings which measure how a series was liked. If you look at today's shows, that would be a breakout hit.

Baywatch was never able to do well in its prime time try.

Knight Rider isn't even as popular as Knight Boat. The Crime-Solving Boat.

Knight Rider isn't even as popular as Knight Boat. The Crime-Solving Boat.

Announcer: We now return to "Knightboat: the Crime-Solving Boat".
Michael: Faster, Knightboat! We gotta catch those starfish poachers.
Knightboat: You don't have to yell, Michael, I'm all around you.
Michael: Oh, no! They're headed for land. We'll never catch them now.
Knightboat: Incorrect: look! A canal.
Homer: Go, Knightboat, go!
Bart: Oh, every week there's a canal.
Lisa: Or an inlet.
Bart: Or a fjord.
Homer: Quiet! I will not hear another word against the boat.

Come on now, get your own 18th century philosopher to quote.

Yeah, I've never actually seen an episode of Baywatch, but I've never seen an episode of Night Rider. But I love David Hasslehoff and I know him best from that uga chaka video, so i have to say his singing tallent.

 

[Grimlock]

Although, David Hasslehoff had a starring credit in Baywatch, he was not the star of the show. The fine assets of actresses like Pamela Anderson, Nicole Eggert and Yasmine Bleath were the real stars of the show.

Fixed.
