Watch WGA cannibalizing itself, it amuses me

They’re also narcissists who’re too enamored with the Hollywood system and the established avenues to try and go off the beaten path.

Maybe they’re just as risk averse as the studios they’re fighting against.

Well I atleast hope it makes the writers mad. Even though largely just looks like it'll just be a football game being watched by the Toy Story gang.

Yeah like that “movie” of Teen Titans Go watching Space Jam, it’s basically Roger Corman level of using what you got

I guess the actor's strike is over seeing how the person promoting the film is a member of SAG-AFTRA still not sure about the writters strike.

Maybe not I heard some studios maybe able to use Union Actors if they abide by their demands. So perhaps which studio made this movie is playing by the rules set by SAG-AFTRA.
 
Bill Maher carries on with his show without excessive baggage. After all, parasite-generated content is hardly "the heart of the show". Every "writer" is howling in pain.

You know not all people who work for a show are created equal, friendo?

Four shows I've never watched, three of which I never knew existed. But all "coming back," in some form.

Interesting that Maher and Barrymore seem to be getting all the hate. Must be their white privilege. Either that or nobody gives a shit about Jennifer Hudson or The Talk. Or maybe both.

Edit: I think the most amusing factoid about this nonsense is that the yentas gabbing away on The View about menopause and Trump are in fact considered a news show. How and why, I have no idea, but they are. In any event, therefore they operate under a separate agreement entirely. So they get to continue without interruption.

A Fox exec said that the strikes would need to end by October to realistically have any sort of "season", and that's true. November/December are fairly dead in Hollywood and even if the strikes ended tomorrow it would take weeks to set everything up to write/film - probably January at the earliest.

I think some of the younger writers are going to be panicking soon, nobody has 5 months of California rent/food money saved up, much less 8-9 months. I see a lot of people moving back home over the holidays if they can't figure this out (or there's a rebellion like there was in 2007).

How many writers does a talk show even need anyways? All he really has to do is have some guests to interview and it's a program.

I also don't see them willing or even being able to live on one pack of ramen per day (or not even eating ever day) when push comes to shove.

Seeing Bill Maher come back onto HBO without any writers will be interesting, since if I recall, he was getting mocked by both sides of the political spectrum for calling Donald Trump “stupid“ and a “criminal” on Joe Rogan’s podcast. Yet, he couldn’t actually name reasons as to why that were the case, except for the times that he saw it on the same mainstream media outlets that regurgitate the same things he talks about, but to his Generation X/older millennial audience.

Either way, it will be interesting to see how much he goes off the cuff, since all the other late night “comedians” are too busy doing a podcast with one another:
