I think that CBS did with Saturday Supercade what they did five years later with Rude Dog & the Dweebs, and that was to shelve it for a short time then bring it back. Rude Dog was replaced with Dungeons & Dragons for six months before CBS brought it back (There was some supposed concern that Rude Dog looked too much like Bud Light mascot Spuds Mackenzie for comfort even though he was the figure on a line of clothes for youths).
