The only possible silver lining to this is that they'll kick around long enough for the writers to become cognizant that they're on an obviously sinking ship and do two or three episodes of go-for-broke absurdism and meta humor.  I'm guessing that probably won't happen, given how quickly NBC killed The Paul Reiser…
