Fox is pulling the plug on I Wanna Marry "Harry," a new reality dating series in which a dozen American women attempt to win the heart of an average English bloke impersonating Prince Harry.

Effective next week, I Wanna Marry "Harry" will ultimately be replaced by reruns of the following Fox comedies: Family Guy, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, New Girl, and The Mindy Project.
However, I Wanna Marry "Harry" won't be disappearing for good. Unaired episodes of the series will reportedly be available for viewing on FOX NOW, Hulu, Fox.com, and Fox On Demand beginning Friday, June 13. The broadcasts may also air on Fox at a later date depending on whether a spot in the schedule opens up.
I Wanna Marry "Harry" premiered immediately following American Idol's final fourteenth-season performance show on May 20. While Fox expected the series to be a hit, its debut only drew 1.91 million total viewers and a 0.7/2 rating/share in the Adults 18-49 demographic, according to Variety.
On Tuesday night's most recent episode of the reality dating series, less than 1 million viewers reportedly tuned in, which makes I Wanna Marry "Harry" the lowest-rated original series ever on any of the Big Four networks -- Fox, ABC, CBS, and NBC.
