Show	Status	Notes
Sports Night	Permanent Hiatus	ABC never seemed to know what to do with this half hour, by turns hilarious and heartbreaking. Was it a comedy? A drama? Certainly the network could be blamed for a couple of bad decisions, like imposing a jarring laugh track early on and never giving the show a regular timeslot. After two seasons, ABC cut the show loose, but it'll live on in our hearts forever.
Step It Up & Dance	Permanent Hiatus	Step off.
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip	Permanent Hiatus	Aaron Sorkin came back to network TV to save it from itself. At least, that's what he told us in the pilot. Unfortunately, years of watching "illiterate" reality programs had left viewers enfeebled and unable to watch his new show correctly. We kept expecting the lauded sketch comedy show-within-the-show to be funny, for example. We can be so stupid sometimes. Sorry, Aaron.
Stylista	Permanent Hiatus	H'elle no.
Suits	Active
Summerland	Permanent Hiatus	It was summer. There was...land. But somehow the mix of teen poster boys, family hijinks, and Francie from Alias didn't have enough appeal. We blame the Creepy Cult Kid.
Supernatural	Active
Surreal Life	Permanent Hiatus	Imagine if you will, six former celebrities who still have egos the size of Pittsburgh being forced to live together in a mansion for two weeks and do all sorts of crazy activities like visit a nudist colony and take part in a fake talk show that crushes those huge egos. Sounds like a great show, right? So why weren't you watching it and reading the recaps?
Survivor	Active
Swingtown	Permanent Hiatus	Summer dreams ripped at the seams, but oh, those summer nights.
Tarzan	Permanent Hiatus	The jungles of Manhattan. This show was toast before it ever aired. You'd think a pseudo-superhero show starring a supermodel famous for being naked, a syndication queen like Xena, and all the fun of Mitch Pileggi would have been the ultimate guilty pleasure. But absolutely everything went wrong. And then it got worse. Behold the carnage.
Television Critics Association
Tell Me You Love Me	Permanent Hiatus	If you combine explicit sex with a lot of relationship-based talky-talky, do you get a show with something for everyone, or a show that everyone will avoid? Well, if the show also features no plot, dreary cinematography, and intolerable characters, as well as talky-talky that's almost as dull as the sex, you get Tell Me You Love Me. Unsurprisingly, almost nobody did.
Temptation Island	Permanent Hiatus	Who would think whoring would ever go out of style? Well, when saddled with the sad, hangdog face of host Mark L. Walberg and a post-9/11 America desirous of purity and goodness, it can. Fox hit gold with the first Temptation Island, a show about trying to break couples up -- mainly due to the slutty ways of the aggressively hungry-for-fame and unfortunately-coifed Mandy. The second season, however, failed to catch on, and Fox pushed it permanently out to sea. Good news: Mark L. Walberg is back, with a show on The Game Show Network. "Where's the good news?" you ask. That means we never have to watch him again.
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles	Permanent Hiatus	If only this had been The Cameron & Derek Chronicles...
Terra Nova	Permanent Hiatus	Our biggest regret about this costly, underwhelming sci-fi series: Fox cancelled it before we could see a meteor wipe out the majority of life on prehistoric Earth, including (and especially) every member of the Shannon family.
The Agency	Permanent Hiatus	You know, it sounded like a good idea at the time...CIA. Espionage. Everyday lives of operatives. Knowledge of covert operations happening every second of every day that not a single human in America is aware of. Too bad Wolfgang Petersen and the powers that be at CBS managed to create a show that holds no interest for ANYONE ALIVE. I mean, for God's sake! It's up against ER! What in the HELL were they thinking? Apparently, they weren't thinking much; this show is over. Over. Done. Kaput. Without continuance. Or without further recapping, anyway. CBS picked it up for the whole season, for some reason, but we're done.
The Americans	Active
The Big C	Permanent Hiatus	Sometimes you just need to pull the plug.
The Cape	Permanent Hiatus	Superbad.
