Steeeeerike 3...

What the hell? Hollywood/New York are on Strike? This is bullshit... I do not want to burdened with re-runs for the next four months (well, that wouldn't be much different from what I watch now - CSI re-runs and Sports)

I have a solution - the Entertainment industry needs to go the way of the Automobile industry... Move South...

Now I am not saying that the political commentary for the Daily Show or Colbert Report would be quite as whitty but hell - Jeff Foxworthy, Larry White, Bill Engvall, and Larry the Cable Guy have all made millions in Dixie.

What kills me is the story I read that Tina Fey is picketing her own show. That is bullshit. Where is the line drawn? Isn't the "Talent" moved into Management positions that aren't covered by the union? Is she showing solidarity - or being a bitch? If I was the Network I would not be happy about my "talent" taking a position.

Speaking of the "Talent" - why can't they write the fucking shows? Are they all just talking heads? Most of them started as writers and moved up to "talent" (John Stewart, Colbert, everyone on SNL, Fey, etc...)

With the number of channels out there, maybe Hollywood will be relegated like Hockey. You don't want to play ball with the American public. Go Fuck yourself. We can do without.

Reality shows don't need writers. Neither do sports - and any Monkey can write the script for SportsCenter.
