"Magnificent Seven" Pulled


Michael Biehn as Chris Larabee CBS' western series "Magnificent Seven," starring Michael Biehn, has been pulled from the schedule. The midseason show, which narrowly skirted cancelation last year, but was brought back thanks to an intense fan campaign, was scheduled to return to its 9 p.m. Friday slot March 26 following two weeks of preemptions by NCAA college basketball coverage. However, CBS will air double episodes of "Kids Say the Darndest Things" and "Candid Camera" from 8 to 10 p.m. on that date instead, and then insert "Unsolved Mysteries" into the time slot on April 2 for a six-week run of original episodes.

Although the series has not been officially canceled, the show's mediocre ratings, an average 6.7 rating/11 share, losing nearly 20% of its "Candid Camera" lead-in, make its chances of returning to the schedule slim.
