AICN is reporting on the current writer’s strike and the number of people picketting their own shows. Such folks include the ENTIRE cast of ‘The Office’, the writing staff (including Ron Moore) of ‘Battlestar Galactica’, and ‘The Unit’ showrunner Shawn Ryan and show star Robert Patrick!

Late night television has already been affected save for Jon Stewart who is paying his writer’s out of pocket for the next two weeks. At some point the studios will be hearing an echo from their piggybanks as viewers get tired of reruns, hack written replacement shows, and other crap. Ah hell, I say we just make every channel 100% commercials 100% of the time. Maybe then folks would get back to more important pursuits…like gaming!
