You say that Moonlight is scheduled to return yesterday. I checked the CBS website and it's not starting again until the 25th.<BR/><BR/>Not criticising, just letting you know.alyciahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09756531970729737993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-86023802093468860912008-03-26T09:58:41.441-05:002008-03-26T09:58:41.441-05:00No,<BR/>I'm updating the blog more than ever these days. This post however was getting a little stale now that the writers strike has been over for a month or so. If there are still folks interested I could continue to update this post, but eyeballs have dropped tremendously on this story.<BR/><BR/>My plans are to do a complete post in more of a schedule style showing all shows with episodes coming up. Another post is on its way with the Summer and Fall 2008 seasons as well.Brent Evanshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11336719205371313266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-7011866778404162282008-03-26T09:39:48.143-05:002008-03-26T09:39:48.143-05:00Have you stopped updating your blog?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-40091196736267039402008-02-12T11:31:09.371-06:002008-02-12T11:31:09.371-06:00In reference to the original blog: good and to the point, thanks.<BR/><BR/>In reference to the strike: We can say whatever we want about whether they should/shouldn't strike, should/shouldn't get more money, should/shouldn't retain their jobs, etc. The fact remains, though, that the people who are angry with the writers for taking away something they enjoy are people who greatly value the service writers provide. We can't be all upset that we don't have our tv but then say it isn't worth more than what we're paying for it. If no one cared that the strike happened because no one cared about tv, then yes, the writers wouldn't be worth paying. I think that is clearly not the case.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-80022393838191186282008-02-06T13:05:07.570-06:002008-02-06T13:05:07.570-06:00thank you for taking the time to compile this very comprehensive list. it is extremely helpful!gigihttp://www.roadsidescholar.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-25657200903002586962008-02-05T16:29:45.246-06:002008-02-05T16:29:45.246-06:00When you say only 11 episodes remain on simpsons and 5 episodes of smallville remain et., Do you mean that is the end, or just for untill the strike is over?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-7065425494978581542008-02-05T12:54:38.340-06:002008-02-05T12:54:38.340-06:00Excuse me! Some of you commenters are bein down right rude and hasty. Yes, I'm upset that all of the shows on TV I watch are on the list, but I'm not complaining. The new rush of reality TV is annoying as hell, as I can't stand those shows at all. But this is not the writers faults. <BR/><BR/>Yes, they are striking and they want more money that doesn't make them greedy. Sure the c.e.o.'s take a risk by putting the media out there for us and producing the show, but like it or not - a show is only as good as it's writers are. No matter how good the actors are, it means nothing unless the script is worth it. <BR/><BR/>TYVM.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-6514154034048270232008-02-04T19:46:16.145-06:002008-02-04T19:46:16.145-06:00I'd love to make $62,000 average.<BR/><BR/>Writers are just making everyone angry.

It's amazing how many not so old & old movies I have been enjoying renting from our Library for just $1.00 a week. And reading novels again.<BR/>I don't know the details, so how can I relate to the writers, they know what job they are getting into, if they get a back end percentage of the profits the bigshots should up that so if the shows make good the writers make good - across the board it's a business. Hey I'm stuck in a commission based job & I pay too much for medical insurance that screws me on technicalities, I had to make a 2nd mortgage just to manage for as long as I can, I never knew my job would beat me down I do all the hard work & have to keep learning and supply my own working tools. I am too old to change jobs but if it's the bottom of the barrel to be a writer get out of it.<BR/>I would want the writers to make a good living not have problems & if there is a way to work it out to there satisfaction I hope they get it. But look over your shoulder there's a ton of talent in this world online & if you try to overshoot ya might just be loosing something you really love to do.<BR/><BR/>Hope it works out soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-26258229208578820502008-02-02T11:04:07.549-06:002008-02-02T11:04:07.549-06:00Great stuff, but you are off about scrubs.

I see nothing but reality shows and Golden Girls reruns.. what?!<BR/><BR/>can we write letters? are there petitions? please point us in the right direction and let us know what we can do to show our support.ariel devahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11761474060761014937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-81264321274731482392008-01-29T04:14:26.420-06:002008-01-29T04:14:26.420-06:00Being a UK show, Torchwood is unaffected by the strike and has 13 episodes in total this season (12 left?), which are all complete. UK series, being shorter, tend to have finished recording by the time they air (shows doing badly are consigned to graveyard slots rather than cancelled mid-run).gemnoirenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-79481176240101149612008-01-28T19:51:50.775-06:002008-01-28T19:51:50.775-06:00Chrissy,<BR/>Thanks for stopping by.

What about Women's Murder Club? I don't think that I saw that one on the list. <BR/><BR/>A lot of you here are just complaining. I personally don't care who is being greedy in this situation. I just want it to end. I read through all of the comments hoping to find something that we, the public, can do to help end the strike.

The writers are basically saying "We won't go back to work unless we get more money!" Sounds like greed to me - or a really bad Hollywood script. In case you can't tell, I have no sympathy for them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-6130704920012796422008-01-26T06:02:14.546-06:002008-01-26T06:02:14.546-06:00ummm<BR/>can i just say something. now i understand the writers are feeling mistreated...but when they agreed whatever it was they agreed with the CEO's or whoever they made their deal with, the writers probably made a contract which would have said that they would work for an entire season, as this is generally how i think it works. by striking they are braking a contract they agreed to and therefore they are in the wrong. But if i am wrong about this contract then they (the writers) are selling their script. Which is essentially paper with choice words on it, this is what the CEO's would be buying not the the work of the writers like they do with actors. therefore the CEO's own the scripts and can do with it what they want and the writers would not be able to claim royalties. To sum this up i am basically saying that it is a buisness and that the writers would have signed a contract either way and should not complain and if they never signed a contract then they are entitled to nothingGG Schillernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-61941885003990063082008-01-24T12:20:52.303-06:002008-01-24T12:20:52.303-06:00This is a great re-cap of where all the favorite shows stand! Thanks for putting this together, and for being the #1 result on google when searching "writer's strike update." <BR/><BR/>I have to say, the CEO's really need to come up with a solution. I agree with the writers and I understand where they are coming from. Oddly enough though, everyone will start to see the results of this soon, including those CEO's! Viewers are upset, actors too, and without new episodes, there will be no Season DVDs to market! Not to mention these shows are probably losing their following during this strike! I know I get so frustrated when Grey's is a repeat, I may eventually forget to tune in once it finally does come back!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-25087157660330191982008-01-23T18:26:11.740-06:002008-01-23T18:26:11.740-06:00Heya, there are *3* episodes left of dirty sexy money.

Myself I guess I am tired of everyone everywhere being in control of us ie. Jane Public.... what if the public went on strike what the heck would the big guys do? Seem to me we always allow others to be in control as we never unite against anything the gas prices, the irs, increasing taxes, insurance hikes, and on and on. I think if all of us ever stand together it would be amazing. If everyone of us just turned the tv off for one week what effect would that have on tv.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-38832889601725770532008-01-22T11:14:30.556-06:002008-01-22T11:14:30.556-06:00I am not sure my correction to my previous post about Moonlight posted...I meant the last episode was 1/18...and it was the 12th....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11976697.post-86650865219079037172008-01-22T09:45:07.846-06:002008-01-22T09:45:07.846-06:00Any info on Rescue Me?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
