Could recovering pop wreck Britney Spears become a fixture on network television?

The New York Post reports that even though Spears is back in the studio working on a new album, her father/conservator Jamie is hoping she’ll phase out her music career and focus on television instead. (I think it is just smart business to accept that eventually people won’t want to see a 40-ish woman in a bustier gyrating to breathy dance songs. Wait a minute, Madonna still does it.  Never mind.)

The Spears camp was well-pleased with her cameo on CBS’ How I Met Your Mother. That appearance got the show its highest ratings ever. Set insiders say Spears was professional and friendly.
