The strike is over.
The Oscars are on.
We can all return back to normal now.
Writers are expected to get back to work on Wednesday, after finalizing the new deal in a Guild member vote on Tuesday.
Yay!

      That nice to know, and the Oscar are safe.

      But I'm not going to hop back in line and start watching shows that were pulled.

      FUCK THE WRITERS GREEDY ASSES ! They did not think of all the people they put out of work, or the people who enjoyed their shows.. so FUCK THE WRITERS !

    52. Ally says – reply to this

    55. TB says – reply to this


      55

      I wouldn't jump the gun just yet. While it looks VERY likely that it will end, the writers still have to vote. The WGAE is voting on Tuesday, so it's not officially over yet.

      "we can get back to normal"?
      you have been writting through the entire strike there marshmellow.
      blogging for profit in my opinion makes you a writer…….

      Perez is not a writer and this does'nt count.

    96. yagmi says – reply to this


      96

      I don't give a crap. I will not watch any of the old shows that were affected by the strike. These whiney transients need to be happy that they had a fucking job.

      I will not support them…..

    97. Kortni says – reply to this


      97

      About time!!! Now, I can watch real TV, 24!!!

    98. Kat says – reply to this


      98

      Thank god TV is back, having to concentrate on my own problems was very stressful.

    99. Arianna says – reply to this


      99

      This makes me insanely happy. As an actor in Canada, things got tough, even though there were still Canadian things going on. I, for one, am glad for all the folks who get to go back to work and support themselves and their families again doing what they love. Strikes are beneficial in some ways, but are so harmful in so many others, sometimes the bad outweighing the good, and I'm happy to see resolution.

      The production gears are creaking back to life!

      Also, all you silly, silly people who post inane things like "third beyatches" when you're 16th need to find something far more substantial to get excited about. I guarantee Perez doesn't give a shit about who posted first, or third, or 16th, for that matter. Get outside, or something. Fresh air.

      Love Arianna
