Thank you, thank you I hear rumors on the street that we actually may have some progress in the writers strike. You remember the writers don’t you? They are the people that bring the wonderful shows on NBC and the incredible writings of Predator Quest. A kidding aside we want them back and here’s the latest happenings

Clear progress has been marked in informal contract talks between studio execs and striking writers, stoking broad expectations that a tentative agreement may be announced sometime this week.

Such a pact with the Alliance of Motion Picture & Television Producers would have to be approved by the WGA West board and the WGA East council and ratified by memberships on both coasts. But recent movement in key areas under negotiation, chiefly involving new-media residuals, now has industryites expecting an imminent end to the 3-month-old work stoppage barring an unforeseen glitch as negotiators wrap up final details.

We need them back, not because most of them are any good but because some of them are VERY good. Screw the awards shows, it’s just fodder for my fun, I miss the “Big Bang Theory” now that shit is funny.
