The answer to the question “How low does a show’s ratings have to go on CW to get cancelled?” has been answered, as the network has axed reality series H8R, which was averaging an embarrassing 0.5.  They’ll use the timeslot, at least for now, to run repeats of RINGER, as the trend continues of filling the timeslots of cancelled shows with reruns of series that are merely close to being cancelled.
