Knight Rider Canceled after 17 episodes?

Rider The cast and crew of NBC's "Knight Rider" were informed Wednesday that the show's 17th episode will be its last for the season, sources say.

In NBC's midseason announcement today, "Rider" is listed to have its season finale on Feb. 25. The network has said it plans to overhaul the show, with the changes still to air, but the move suggests there is little expectation that a revamp will succeed.

This episode reduction could be, in effect, a cancellation, since the show's ratings have been abysmal on Wednesday nights. Unless there's marked improvement between now and the finale, it's tough to see NBC paying to bring back the show next fall.

yeah I was so excited to see this show coming out, but after the first 2 episodes...hell really after just the pilot episode I was turned off....

What competition was it up against though? Like same time slot on Wednesdays?

^ Well it wasn't really, was it? It got cancelled and it became more of a mess than it was to start with. I've watched it up to the most recent episode and I have no idea why :/.

It had some bad acting, special efffects, cheesyness, a bad attempt at humour and they made KITT to much like transformers. On the last episode KARR was too much like a transformer - the way he moved around and talked.

The only upside this show had was some good music, babes :p and the few exceptional good scenes.

Well, I had given up on the series since learning it was cancelled. I mean the KARR episode was a complete and utter disaster! However, the last episode was really cool! Full of action! Maybe NBC should give the "reboot" a chance!

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      If you don't care to read what I said, then you prove my point. Maybe written media is beyond your attention span. Titles are not summaries my friend.

      Nobody asked... in fact, I said "I don't care about political leanings"

      TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results

      Restore will get my vote, only if to see if things are any different, doubt it though but Labour and Conservatives too out of touch and same thing over and over and over…, Lib Dem who?

      There is nothing wrong with this title. You have completely missed the plot when it comes to "clickbait." The issue was never that a title tries to entice you to click, that is how titles have worked for over 100 years. The issue is when the title subverts expectations, getting you to click expecting something that isn't there. The classic clickbait example is "Boyfriend caught cheating, what happens next will shock you," then what happened next is the girlfriend was upset...which is probably the least shocking outcome imaginable. If sounds like what you want is for the titles to be a collection of 10-word summaries that you can skim, get the just of the story, and only click if you want more details. That is not, never has been, and never will be what titles are. You can go all the way back to print newspapers during the great depression and see the same thing. The newspaper was locked in a vending machine, all you can see is the headline, you choose to put in 5¢ to buy the paper and read the rest if you want. Those headlines were written in a way to sell the paper, not just to provide a summery. Here are two actual headlines from that time, "Wall Street Lays an Egg," or "Stocks Hit Bottom?" Maybe you'd say something like "it was wrong then and it's still wrong now." Okay, fine opinion to have, but it isn't like Neowin is doing something unjurnalistic, they are just following the age-old standards for written media.
