H8R Cancelled
NBC finally has some company in the trash bin!
The CW has pulled the plug on H8R, a show whose premise was that celebrities would confront people that hate them. Somehow the idea of taking unlikeable people, and having them confront even more unlikeable people didn't catch on with the public.
Last night's airing managed a 0.4 and 1.15 million viewers. Obviously they discovered the thing people hated the most was watching this show. Repeats of Ringer will fill the Wednesday 8PM time slot.

I thought this might have been cheap enough to produce that the horrible ratings might be acceptable. Is it to late to bring Smallville back?
They should just bring "Beauty and the Geek" back. I'm sure it couldn't do any worse than H8R.

Re: H8R Cancelled
If I understand the premise, the "haters" meet the celebrities they hate, and the celebrities basically show them they aren't so bad after all, is that right?
If so, well no wonder it was canceled, because people like Snooki and those Kardashians are people we enjoy hating and they were trying to take that away from us! We don't want to know they are (theoretically) good people!
Well Aww Hell Naw.
We Be Hatin' on H8R.

When the guy who hate the Miz is just doing it ala a wrestling promo, you know they weren't going after anybody who truly disliked them.
I mean the stuff with Snooki could have been done better by just focusing on how she has no skills in the real world yet she gets her own TV show, all the money, and has learned no real life skills yet?
