WGA TV & Film Writers Strike

Ok......I say give them what they want and be done with it. There's plenty of money out there to go around!

In the last 2 days I have become actually interested in the writers' strike that is going on. I don't give a crap that people like Conan O'Brien or Jon Stewart won't really be able to do any shows b/c of it......but it's the future repercussions it will have:

Yesterday I saw an article on comingsoon.net that if it continues.....the final season of Scrubs will NOT end the way as planned........they will be six episodes short b/c they don't have any stockpiled. AND THIS IS THE FINAL SEASON.......LET THEM END THE SHOW HOW THEY WANT TO!!!!!

Also, at this point, there are only 8 episodes of LOST, which means the season won't go straight through and will stop at a cliffhanger for an indefinite period.

Holy crap, I mean come on......I'm all about people getting paid (even though many are overpaid----especially if piece of crap shows like The War At Home are stil even on), and I know they can be called greedy, but the other people holding on to the money they want are greedy as well.

Just resolve something in the next week so I can be at peace.

That being said......I should confess that I really just got into Scrubs this summer, after seeing two episodes from season 6. BUT....I buy the DVDs....and that is part of the money that the writers are wanting. So, I see fit that they get it.

HOWEVER...I DO watch LOST as it airs.......and purchase the DVDs later.....so I will be affected. However, it's not ending this season, so it can be dealt with.
