AK: In 1979, ABC moved ๐๐ฏ๐จ๐ฆ๐ญ ๐๐ค๐ข๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐บ to the notoriously difficult Saturday night 8:00 PM time slot. The dense, philosophical drama struggled to compete against the era's lighter, more action-oriented fare, consistently losing ground to hit shows on rival networks such as ๐๐๐ช๐๐ด, ๐๐ถ๐ค๐ฌ ๐๐ฐ๐จ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ด ๐ช๐ฏ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ 25๐ต๐ฉ ๐๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต๐ถ๐ณ๐บ, and the popular comedy ๐๐ข๐ณ๐ฑ๐ฆ๐ณ ๐๐ข๐ญ๐ญ๐ฆ๐บ ๐๐๐. Seeking to cut its losses, ABC sold the struggling series to NBC in early 1982, clearing the Saturday time slot for the debut of ๐.๐. ๐๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฌ๐ฆ๐ณ. The network awkwardly aired the remaining episodes following ๐๐ข๐ณ๐ฑ๐ฆ๐ณ ๐๐ข๐ญ๐ญ๐ฆ๐บ ๐๐๐ in the spring of 1982, and burned off six final episodes in June and July after the comedy concluded its run. The erratic scheduling proved fatal. Viewers, already fatigued by the show's shifting timeslots, simply tired of trying to hunt down their once-favorite program. Consequently, NBC quietly pulled the plug. When the fall television season launched in 1982, the halls of the Angel Academy were, at last, truly silent.
