Game Show/Reality

• America's Greatest Pets (1998)

• America's Next Top Model (2003-2006, also on The CW) - The first "cycle" premiered in May 2003 and was one of UPN's highest rated shows. The show's seventh cycle was the first of the shows among regular programming on UPN's successor network, The CW, and thus far is the network's highest rated series. It was announced on January 24, 2006, that Top Model would be part of the new The CW network, a merger between UPN and The WB, when the next cycle started in September airing on Wednesdays. Prior to the announcement of merging with The CW, UPN had committed to renewing the series through its ninth cycle on January 20, 2006, for which casting was conducted throughout mid-2006. ANTM is the only show left on the network that was originally from UPN.

• Amish in the City (2004)

• Britney & Kevin: Chaotic (2005) - In April 2005, it was revealed that Britney Spears had made a deal with television network UPN to release her own reality television series. The series would feature footage from the singer and her then husband, Kevin Federline, and would be aired in six episodes. "From the day that Kevin and I met, there have been constant rumors and inaccurate speculation about our lives together," Spears said in a statement about the series. "I feel that last year, the tabloids ran my life, and I am really excited about showing my fans what really happened, rather than all the stories, which have been misconstrued by journalists in the past. As I mentioned before, I am now going to be expressing my personal life through art". The series was initially titled Britney & Kevin: Can You Handle Our Truth?, before being officially announced as Britney & Kevin: Chaotic, with "Can you handle our truth?" being its tagline. The theme song of the series, "Chaotic", was written Michelle Bell, Christian Karlsson, Pontus Winnberg, and Henrik Johnback, while produced by Bloodshy & Avant. Britney & Kevin: Chaotic first aired on May 17, 2005. The first episode, titled "Can You Handle My Truth?", pulled in an audience of 3.5 million viewers, and featured several discussed themes such as sex and love. The following episodes featured home videos created by Spears and Federline, along with some added commentary, beginning with their courtship during the European leg of Spears' The Onyx Hotel Tour in Spring 2004, and ending with their marriage that September. The singer revealed that the series helped the couple to know each other more, saying, "I didn't know that well, and when I got the camera out, it made me feel better. It's really weird because it was like all this tension at first. We were so nervous being together. I'm really shy, and when I had the camera in my hand, it made me feel more outspoken. I think it helped at first." Only five episodes of Britney & Kevin: Chaotic were aired. The last episode, titled "Veil of Secrecy", featured the world premiere of the music video for "Someday (I Will Understand)" (2005).

• Chains of Love (2001)

• Get This Party Started (2006) - The program was scheduled in the lowest-rated timeslot of the 2005-06 television season in UPN's 8pm-9pm Tuesday slot, where Sex, Love & Secrets had failed before. Get This Party Started garnered low ratings and was canceled by the network after only two episodes. The show ended up last out of the 156 programs which aired on the six major American broadcast networks in the 2005-06 season.

• I Dare You: The Ultimate Challenge (2000)

• Manhunt (2001) - Manhunt was plagued with problems during its brief run. First, a deal collapsed with the World Wrestling Federation in which a number of their "superstars" were to be a part of the show's cast. Then, the bottom fell out when separate investigative reports by conspiracy theorist Peter Lance and game-show enthusiast Steve Beverly revealed that the show was being filmed at Griffith Park in Los Angeles, California. Manhunt had claimed to be filmed on location in Hawaii. The program was pulled after six episodes.

• R U the Girl (2005) - The casting tour for the series began on February 5, 2005 in Los Angeles, with tour stops in New York City, Chicago, Dallas, Washington, D.C., Atlanta, and Miami. After the semifinalists were selected, they were each judged on their ability to sing by the remaining TLC members Tionne Watkins and Rozonda Thomas. The program aired seven episodes, with the eighth episode being an overview of the series and original TLC's home videos. The finale episode was aired live and featured the final two contestants O'so Krispie and Mirrah. O'so Krispie, a 20-year-old choreographer from Atlanta, was ultimately chosen as the winner and performed the single "I Bet" with Watkins and Thomas on the series finale.

• Under One Roof (2002) - UPN has been criticized for having canceled the show, not once, but twice. After the first two episodes, aired in March and April, fared poorly in the ratings, the show was cancelled, then brought back again in July as a summer replacement, only to be pulled from the air again after airing one more episode. Because of the cancellation, the winning family of the house was never publicly revealed, although it is known that the Skofields won.
