New Zealand - TV2 has pulled Torchwood following episode 2-04 Meat.
As far as anybody knows, Torchwood was performing fine for TV2. Lost
repeats are now in the time period. Summer is approaching in New
Zealand, so they may be holding Torchwood back for the Fall when more
people watch TV.

Doctor Who schedule information is in This Week In Doctor Who
