VH1 Cancels Late-Night Show

By R. Thomas Umstead -- Multichannel News, 4/26/2002 11:43:00 AM

VH1 has pulled the plug on its original late-night talk show, Late World with Zach, nearly two months after its much-hyped launch.

The daily skein premiered March 4 to a disappointing 0.2 rating, and it was never able to significantly improve its viewership in later weeks, sources close to the situation said.

VH1 officials said the network is exploring other programming opportunities for Late World host Zach Galifianakis.

The move comes two weeks after MTV: Music Television marketing executive Christina Norman was appointed to lead the struggling VH1.
