I'm pretty ambivalent about her, but I agree it was an interesting performance, particularly for a woman at that time in television.
She was horribly underused - it's downright criminal that she doesn't pay a significant role in "The Measure of a Man."
It's really quite simple. No one was watching it, which is why it was cancelled.
But they had to keep making it because CBS All Access needed those viewers, which I remind you did not exist, to prop up the streaming service.
See? See?
