Martha's post-prison reality lacks drama

Turns out the hubbub over Martha Stewart's new TV deal could've done without the hubbub. The description from Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia (and NBC/Mark Burnett) sounds like any old show on the Food Network. But knowing Burnett's shows, it'll at least have a catchphrase to rival "the tribe has spoken" and "you're fired." Then again, Martha already had a catchphrase. And that's not necessarily a good thing.
