Hollywood Writers Are On Strike?
Unless you’re a television drama junkie, or think the humor of Leno and Letterman are worth staying up for, you probably weren’t aware that the Writers Guild of America (WGA) was on strike. Now entering its third month, the strike is being blamed for the cancellation of dozens of television pilots.
Personally, I gave up on the major networks months ago and restrict my viewing to cable networks such as HGTV, DIY, Food Network, Science Channel, etc. When I need a drama, I add a movie to my Blockbuster Online movie queue or pull something from my personal collection.
How has the strike affected you? Take the poll below and see what other viewers are reporting.

Initially I didn’t care about the strike, and the Golden Globe Awards certainly didn’t change that opinion; however, I am starting to miss new episodes of The Office and the Daily Show is a little lame these days without the writers. I’m also crossing my fingers that the strike doesn’t delay the Lost season 4 premier. I love that show.

Well it caused the delay of my favourite show, Heroes. So of course I care.
