Another failed fall television series bites the dust! Following in the footsteps of NBC’s The Playboy Club and Free Agents, the CW Network has just announced that they will be officially pulling H8R off the air. The reality series, hosted by Mario Lopez, pairs together one reality star/celebrity with some random that just hates their guts entirely. Throughout the whole show – one long hour of awkwardness – the reality star tries to do everything they can to convince the person that they are really not as bad as they seem or appear to be.
I only watched the first episode because the fall television season had only just started and none of the shows I had wanted to watch were available yet. The episode I did watch though featured Bachelor star Jake Pavelka and some punk teenage girl and in the end she still pretty much hated him and the dating reality show altogether. I was pretty satisfied with that outcome. I’m confused; are both people supposed to hug it out in the end and claim that one doesn’t hate the other anymore? Was this show designed for happy endings? I guess I’ll never find out, but it’s okay. I’m sure I won’t lose sleep over this tonight.
