Kitty’s Cancer is DUMB

We learned this past week that Kitty (Calista Flockhart) on “Brothers & Sisters” has cancer. What the HELL?! First off, cancer and brain tumors are beyond played out on TV shows. So why did the producers decide to dip into that well?
What really gets me is that “Brothers & Sisters” isn’t “Lost” or “Sopranos,” I.E. a show that actually kills off characters. So even if we chose to ignore that fact that Flockhart has years left on her contract, it’s more than obvious that Kitty won’t die. So what’s the point of the storyline? There’s no real conflict because you know in the end she’ll be fine.
