Knight Rider - Production Halted Early Posted by DarkUFO at Thursday, December 04, 2008 (Comments: 1) Labels: Cancelled Shows

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.
