Knight Rider Canceled … or not?
KITT - Knight Rider
Is KITT about to be homeless? The beleaguered remake of Knight Rider got some bad news last week, when it appeared it’s last car chase was in the near future.
NBC informed cast and crew that the 17th episode would be the final episode of the season, cutting it short by four complete episodes. Not a good sign in TV Land.
The shows ratings have been steadily declining even among it’s core target audience of 18-49 year old males.
Things looked pretty bleak for the show.
However, the shows producer, Gary Scott Thompson says otherwise. In interviews December 8th, Mr Thompson stated that the show had not been canceled and was only having an overhaul of the format and would return.
He also stated that the cutbacks were a part of NBC’s overall cutback and not targeted specifically at Knight Rider.
So… is the show canceled ….. or not?
My guess is … Mr Thompson needs to wake up and smell the roses…. or at lease admit this remake is a stinker.
