As I was filling out a deposit slip at the bank this afternoon, I heard two unoccupied tellers discussing Martha Stewart's newly announced show. The tellers were disgusted that a prisoner could be set up with such a deal while in prison, though technically, the deal had to be worked out before she started to serve. (wink, wink) The show will begin after she completes five months of house arrest next August.
The format of the show remains vague, but I think they should call it "Lunch with Martha." Based on this story from some of her fellow inmates, Martha is a great lunch companion. They could set the show in a prison cafeteria and have her interviewing all sorts of people, like the nun who was convicted of "obstructing the national defense and damaging government property for her role in an anti-war protest at a missile silo in 2002." That would be television worth watching.
