This little strike all seems very jovial. The last time the Writer's Guild of America went on strike was in 1988, which lasted for 5 months and had the very predictable effect of causing TV stations to rerun archive episodes of classic programming. Personally, I don't see much wrong with that, however, I have a feeling, the American's aren't used to waiting, and they're certainly not used to anyone going on strike, so this will be cleared up quicker than expected. It seems as though the script writers believe themselves to hold a divine right to the exuberant profits of their shows, and I don't disagree. I'm going to watch this one with keen interest.
