NBC Cans Knight Rider after season finale in February '09

http://defamer.com/5101676/nbc-sells...ichael++whyyyy

"THR noticed something interesting in today's NBC, mid-season We're Canceling Everything New and Supersizing Anything Else That Isn't Nailed Down press release: The Knight Rider season finale was listed as airing on February 25th. Since when do super-duper, Ben Silverman-championed, beloved 1980s trash-TV remakes supposedly given full pickups end their seasons in winter, you ask? Since the network apparently decided to cut their losses with a 17-episode order—a move THR strongly suspects means Val Kilmer has sputtered his last, "Shifting us into Uranium-Assisted Hybrid Turbodrive should get us there in time, Michael. Hey look to the right—it's the new Heroes: The Ride attraction at Universal Studios Hollywood!""

I suppose this means that we'll have a time slot for Top Gear US?
