[QUOTE="knots4309, post: 409177, member: 55928"] Correct the first 8 seasons of Knots were packaged for syndication with the Lorimar presents and the narrated recaps. However, they did not complete season 8. The last episode "Cement the Relationship" was not finished as this was halted during the cutbacks of the Lorimar-Telepictures regime and WB acquisition. None of the season 8 episodes packaged this way were ever seen in local market syndication as the syndication package only consisted of 160 episodes or the first 7 seasons. Season 8 was intended to get added, but the cutbacks and the eventual acquisition by WB had something to do with it. This was true when TNT acquired the rights to the show in the fall of 1992. They only ran the first 160 episodes as that is all they could obtain at the time. TNT ran Knots again as part of their Lunchbox TV in 1995 and was the first channel to show the entire series in the United States in syndication. They showed the syndicated episodes of season 8, which was the first time these syndicated season 8 episodes were seen in the US. [/QUOTE]
