The only regular shows last week that did better for NBC among men 18-34 were Heroes, Office and Sunday Night Football. We don't know how exactly valuable those young men are, but Knight Rider does over deliver them for NBC.When you compare Knight Rider in the hour it airs, its performance with men 18-34 and 18-49 is even better. Often number one, but always number one or number two.
