If you are looking to get a mustache and goatee on the fly, call up David Hasselhoff. A little bit of glue goes a long way. In Knight Rider Hasselhoff had double duty as he played two characters. Besides his role as the protagonist Michael Knight, he also portrayed Garthe Knight the villain.

The evil Garthe Knight drove around a semi truck called Goliath (his version of Knight Industries Two Thousand) to make Michael Knight’s life miserable. Although the antagonist Hasselhoff portrayed was quite popular, he was hesitant to do two roles at once. So they eventually killed off his character. Easy fix.
