Hollywood Writers' Strike

[skylark]

I'm most looking forward to new SNLs... with Hillary and Obama! The writers strike has robbed me of political satire during the caucuses. Not cool.

THE END.

I think so. I think it's illegal or against the rules for scab writers to replace the real writers. Or something. Days of Our Lives is having that issue because they fired their writing team during the strike.

Glad to see most shows returning.

Thanks for posting this Jen! I've been on pins and needles waiting to here about "Life" returning. While I'm a little disappointed the show won't be back until fall, there's at least still some hope.

Woot woot on the Big Bang Theory shooting new episodes for next month. I can't believe they can get those out that fast.

Good to know Medium still has some pre-strike episodes, too. I hadn't seen it in the schedule the last couple weeks and I am an avid fan.

Yay! The L&O SVU reruns were annoying, especially when they had the nerve to do marathons.

I hadn't seen every L&O SVU in creation but managed to catch up during this writer's strike.

yeah, i know they right of refusal, but what if Dave Letterman's or Jimmy Kimmel's writers are like "look, you betrayed us, we're gonna go write for Leno or whoever"
that's my question, is if they would want to come back
