The other night I watched the film "Monday Night Mayhem," which tells the story of the early days of Monday Night Football. It stars John Turturro, one of my favorite actors, as Howard Cosell. An enjoyable film if you're a football fan.
Anyway, there's a scene in the film that takes place in the fall of 1971, and it is implied that the surprise success of Monday Night Football was the reason Mayberry RFD, which also aired on Monday night, was cancelled. Not exactly accurate, maybe, but it was nice to hear Mayberrry RFD mentioned.
