He went on to say he lost the show due to the time slot change and the low ratings to not get renewed. He lost the slot to a show called Randi or something, but as ratings got better they decided to focus on a stereotypical ‘black’ audience for business reasons. He may or may not have lost promotions due to being white in the 80’s - he claims he was directly told this, but no proof.

Well, this happened a long time ago. No, he lost the show first - perhaps they were already switchig to a black audience and they were not Dilbert fans...he lost the renewal due to a time slot change more than anything.

I would add, if Dilbert the cartoon were any good, another network would have picked it up. I’m a fan of Scott, but I’m not so sure that show was good.

I watched it. It was okay. At the time it had a lot of great shows to compete with. Today I'd take it over most shit on TV. Maybe 6 / 10.

I’ve watched it. It started off okay, but particularly in the second season it deviated from the “office humor” plots and got ridiculous.
