ABC Wednesday Sitcom Change; The Starz Comedy Hour

ABC has pulled rookie sitcom The Knights of Prosperity from the schedule effective this Wednesday. We were the first ones to report this change back on Friday on our boards and now it is official today, unfortunately. For the next three weeks at least ABC will air ENCORES of According to Jim and George Lopez in the Wednesday 8:30pm slot. Jim this week and George the following two weeks, before the Donny Osmond reality show The Great American Dream Vote comes Wednesdays at 8 starting March 28. No idea yet what will air at 9pm starting March 28, will it be the current Jim/Emergency or something else? I personally think ABC will move Lost back to 9pm and debut new drama Traveler at 10pm, with George & Jim moving to Tuesdays in place of AFV encores. ABC seems to be extending Jim now, as repeats are even scheduled at 9pm now (on March 14 and 21) replacing scheduled new episodes...which is a sign it might be moving to Tuesdays or expected to stay until the season ends at least. ABC was expected to air just new episodes until the season order was finished.
As for The Knights, I think we will see the remaining four episodes at a later date. I certainly hope so, as this is the best new sitcom of the season and unfortunately people are not watching. Shame, shame, shame.
