The Writers Strike is Over

Thank god. Really. Now we can go back to watching scripted crap rather than reality crap exclusively. It'll be interesting to see just how bad of a hit television took on this one. My gut tells me that it'll be bad, but not all that much worse than it would have been with no strike. The technologies to replace the traditional television viewing experience just haven't arrived to the mass audience yet, and until apple tv or some such gets more pervasive, the networks have a pretty good stranglehold on the middle american living room.

Either way, the time off was at least another notch down for tv, and another notch up for teevee.

But I will be rejoicing to the return of the office.
