TV schedules change a lot.

NBC's Friday night line-up from Fall 1982 was:

8:00 Powers of Matthew Star
9:00 Knight Rider
10:00 Remington Steele

Knight Rider moved to Sunday nights in 1983 where it was followed by the NBC Sunday Night Movie.

It moved back to Fridays in 1985, where it was followed by Misfits of Science and Miami Vice; later it moved back to 9:00 followed directly by Miami Vice.

I believe that's supposedly the worst time slot on television. And it would certainly help explain the decline in ratings during Season 4, and possibly the ultimate decision to cancel the series.

In Canada where I am from originally it was on Friday Nights and it went like this:

7:00 PM Knight Rider
8:00 PM Dukes of Hazzard
9:00 PM The A Team
10:00 PM Dallas
11:00 PM NEWS

Keep in mind back then American TV Shows were a week behind. It was pretty good though It was family night at our house. My favorite show was on first then my brother and then my sister and then we went to bed and parents watched Dallas and then news. As well some American shows were on a Canadian network not the NBC feed.
