Right...or something like that. The story I read was Bujold
was there for one days work, and then said something like,
"doing a TV show is too much hard work for me," and rhen she
left. I'd say she didn't like anything 'bout TV or doing an
honest days work after only having all those cushy Hollywood
jobs. :)

they did indeed fail!  :)                     ...tonyC
