When it comes to acting pedigree, you don't get much higher than Sydney Tamiia Poitier. Daughter of Oscar-winner Sidney Poitier, this young actress has worked her way through film and TV, with recurring roles on shows like Joan of Arcadia and Veronica Mars. Now, as one of the stars of the new Knight Rider, she could finally break out on her own and become an actress to look out for.

Those who watched last spring's Knight Rider TV movie were undoubtedly intrigued by her character, an FBI agent who happened to enjoy the company of women. The lesbian twist was a bit of a shock, even moreso because it wasn't mentioned other than that one time. Though new showrunner Gary Scott Thompson hasn't decided either way if he wants to keep the character gay, the prospect of some on-screen girl-on-girl tongue action has us excited.
