I remember when they moved the show. I think it was in December 1984 or January 1985. Right then I knew the show was doomed. I stopped watching it. Their was still plenty of time for them to make a final. I actually remember a few articles in the newspaper when Michael Evans made a couple guest appearances when Lionel and Jenny were going to get divorced and it said something like will Lionel's return boost The Jefferson's ratings? CBS might not have told them they were being canceled but when your ratings go south in your 11th season, common sense should have told them that the end was coming.
