Show	Status	Notes
The Voice	Active
The Wire	Permanent Hiatus	Perhaps never has quality been so great while witnessed by so few. We're glad we were with the minority.
There & Back	Permanent Hiatus	For those of you under twenty years of age: O-Town's Ashley Parker Angel got his own show about how he's all down and out now and is trying to make it solo in the music business. For those of you over thirty years of age: it would be like if Jon Knight of New Kids on the Block got his own show about how he's all down and out now and is trying to make it solo in the music business. For those of you between the ages of twenty and thirty: trust us, you wouldn't have cared either.
Third Watch	Permanent Hiatus	Was it a show about paramedics? Firefighters? Cops? The intricacies of the relationships between these working groups? Yes and no. This show, from ER's John Wells, went from a New York-based action show to a character-driven drama riddled with implausibilities. And you know what? Only one of the characters was even that interesting. While the show had a creative infusion early in the second season, its boredom level rose soon after, dooming it, on Television Without Pity, to a life of Permanent Hiatus. You can still read Nicole's and Omar's recaps, though.
Time of Your Life	Permanent Hiatus	Bailey's ex-girlfriend had the shortest Time of Her Life in all of fourteen episodes. Be glad you weren't there to see Keckler's liver swell with each new show as Sarah twitched, squealed, stripped and sang. Aren't those the signs of the Apocalypse? Smell ya in the unemployment line, Hepwitt!
Titans	Permanent Hiatus	Remember the Titans? Probably, few of you do. Actually, very few of you knew about the show in the first place, which is why it got canceled. Well, what kept you all away? The bad acting? The recycled storylines? The horrendous dialogue? Or was it the total absence of even one likable and morally redeemable character? Titans: Incest never looked so glamorous.
Top Chef	Active
Top Chef Just Desserts	Permanent Hiatus	Dessert isn't always the best part of the meal.
Top Chef Masters	Permanent Hiatus	Not as tasty as the original flavor.
Top Design	Permanent Hiatus	Bravo had already sunk its meaty hooks into us with the delicious thrill of watching fashion designers and chefs compete for fame and fortune, so a show where aspiring interior designers vied for the same thing in the same manner seemed like a natural. What could possibly go wrong? Oh, nothing -- save for twelve not-all-that-interesting contestants, wildly inconsistent judging, and a dismissal catchphrase so forced and banal, it had us running toward the exits after the first show. But we toughed it out for the entire ten-episode first season, and you, the train-wreck-loving public, are the richer for it.
Touch	Permanent Hiatus	The fact that this underwhelming drama from Tim Kring made us miss Kiefer Sutherland in 24 wasn't a surprise. But it even made us nostalgic for Heroes. Season 4. Yes.
Tough Enough	Permanent Hiatus	Once again, we learned that TWoP's demographics and those of the WWF don't really have much overlap (a lesson we should have learned from our brief foray into recapping WWF Smackdown!). The recaps were tough, but the readership wasn't quite enough.
Trading Spaces	Permanent Hiatus	Who knew it would turn out to be the televisual equivalent of a tapeworm? It seemed like a fun little makeover show, but this series was one cautionary tale after another, with lessons galore for fame whores and hapless homeowners and deluded designers. Deborah, Kim, and a passel of substitute recappers strove mightily to cope with the onslaught of paint, MDF, fabric, attitude, and hay -- yes, hay -- but eventually, the greed of TV execs got totally out of hand. TWoP decided to use the money it cost to cover this show's bloated schedule to buy all the recappers TiVos and gold-plated remote controls instead. We're sure the cast and crew will have a lovely time redecorating the Permanent Hiatus floor of TWoP Towers.
Tru Calling	Permanent Hiatus	This horrid show revolved around a supernaturally dumb morgue intern who relives days in order to save lives suffered from stupid, obvious plots; cringe-inducing dialogue; one-dimensional characters; and non-existent direction. It was ignored by critics and beaten regularly by wrestling on UPN. And then it was inexplicably picked up for a full season, prompting TWoP to cancel the recaps on the off-chance the folks at FOX had somehow forgotten how that facet of the industry works and needed a demonstration.
True Beauty
True Blood	Active
Twin Peaks	Permanent Hiatus	Back when network television still gave an absolute lunatic a chance to make a difference, David Lynch created a television show intended to revolutionize the one-hour drama. And it did, because after this show got canceled, no network exec ever wanted to see one again. Kyle McLachlan and Lara Flynn Boyle made it out with only a few scars, but the rest of the cast got lost in an obscurity that can only be relived here.
Ugly Betty	Permanent Hiatus	"It is better to be beautiful than to be good, but it is better to be good than to be ugly" -- Oscar Wilde.
Undeclared	Permanent Hiatus	Some producers have all the luck (Dick Wolf, he of the myriad Law & Order spin-offs), and others, sadly, have none. Judd Apatow, unfortunately, falls in the latter category. He first watched the great Freaks and Geeks die a premature death, only to create another critically lauded show that did the same. But Undeclared and its endearing cast of collegiate wackos will live on at TWoP. So when you miss Steven, Shaggy, Heath, Lizzie, Rachel, and Larice, or when you just want a good, hard Ronning, this is where you should be.
Undercovers	Permanent Hiatus	This J.J. Abrams-produced spy drama starring insanely attractive people had everything going for it... everything but a reason for viewers to care about either the drama or the people, that is.
