Carla Off the Air ... Again

When Karen Sisco was pulled off the air not too long ago, critics mourned its passing and chastised the public for its mediocre tastes; now Threshold is being canceled and not even the critics care.

Personally, I didn’t think Karen Sisco was as smart (or worth continuing) as the critics did, but for my money both shows suffered from another, as yet unnamed problem: They both used busty Carla Gugino as the voluptuous ratings lure, only to disappoint would-be Carla-ogglers by never having her do anything particularly titilating on the show. It’s like The $treet with Jennifer Connelly all over again.
