The CW Shelves Competition Series THE FRAME

The CW has tabled its plans for THE FRAME, a competition series in which teams of two attempt to live in a stripped down version of their home living space all while isolated from the outside world - except for plasma screens that allow interaction with their opponents.

The netlet announced the project at its upfront presentation back in May with CW President Mark Pedowitz affirming an eight-week, 16-episode commitment a few months later (read the story).

But with "The Frame" absent from The CW's midseason and summer plans, a spokesperson has subsequently confirmed the series - which never entered production - has been shuttered. Nick Emmerson and Jen O'Connell were the executive producers for Shed Media and Armoza International Media.
