Depressing paragraph of the week

Courtesy of the NY Times:

The network has another big star, Juliana Margulies of “ER,” set for “Canterbury’s Law.” She plays a defense lawyer with personal issues and secrets.
For what it's worth, those two sentences appeared on the Times site next to a virtual billboard advertising the Met's new Greek and Roman Galleries. Will someone please tell me what it's worth? I can't process the juxtaposition. Is it a sign that Western civilization is to end in numbing banality? Chaucer and FOX, together at last in Canterbury's Law.

Full disclosure: Haven't seen a single episode of the show. Sure it's great.

I don't think you'll need to watch this show to know exactly what its fate is: lackluster reviews, followed by a swift drift to the bottom half of the ratings, ending with mid- to late-season cancellation. Mourned by no one except its stars and producers, who are left wondering how they're going to pay for the Hollywood Hills homes they just purchased.

Let's not add this one to the schedule, 'kay?
