The Writer’s Strike Will End…

November 14th, 2007

While the WGA strike is no laughing matter, it doesn’t mean we have to stop having a sense of humour.

With that in mind — Your mission, should you choose to accept it. Post the date you think the strike will be resolved.

If you guess correctly, you’ll win a fabulous TV Addict prize pack. Including: Showtime’s BROTHERHOOD Season 1 on DVD and a copy of Jeffrey Stepakoff’s fascinating book BILLION DOLLAR KISS [TV Addict autograph optional]

A bonus prize [to be named later] will be given out should the strike actually end before January 1st, 2008. And if that isn’t reason enough to get back to the bargaining table, I don’t know what is!

I know a lot of people believe this rolls till June…. but I think the WGA stays strong through the winter and then dwindling personal checking accounts forces their hand in March.

Tim G. Says:

Since most people are saying they won’t even start talking until after the new year, I’m going to guess February 12th, 2008.

(that’s also my 25th birthday, hint hint)

PS: TV Addict, trim your fingernails!

Rajeev Iyer Says:

Jan 08, 2008.

Although given the state of the economy and the nation, Jan 20th, 2009 is always a possibly.

Lindlee Bullock Says:

February 6, 2008

But I really hope I’m wrong and it’s before the new year!

SimplyKimberly Says:

March 27th, 2008

the-good-shepherd Says:

shanna Says:

I’m going to go with May 30 – It’s a little late, but I feel like it’s going to go straight through the end of the season.

Chris Says:

As much as I wished this would be resolved by New Year’s, I’m guessing they won’t go back to the bargaining table til after the holidays. So I’ll go January 29, 2008.

Josh Emerson Says:

I’ll be optimistic and say January 16th, 2008.

SimplyKimberly Says:

When do the network upfronts happen? I read somewhere that if this thing isn’t over before then it will mean that we definitely won’t get any new tv until 2009. Is that true?

Mel Says:

1/11/08

Chelsea Says:

I’ll go ahead and say early on January 1,2008. Maybe some studio executive will be very drunk and just sign some papers, and the whole deal will be done. Here’s hoping =).

Kaly Says:

I’m going to be optimistic and November 30. I know, it’s naive but wouldn’t it be nice if people had pay-checks before the holidays?

Panch Says:

Well if these People have any sence they would settle soon. I am saying Nov.30. 07 God Bless…..

Katen Says:

December 7th

Joel Says:

I guess…… um……… Feb 13th. My best friends B day. I would choole mine but thats not will October ans if it rolls on till then we will really be screwed. People need to grow up, and give other their due. The writers work ard for gosh sakes so give them what they want. asking for a set % is not unreasonable. If the show/movie/whatever tanks, then your safe, if it makes big buvks then yor still covered.

Steven Says:

april 1st

Terka Says:

I say March 15th 2008.

Krevetka Says:

April 1st 2008

Allie Says:

I’d appreciate the end of the strike as a birthday present, so I mark down Dec. 4th, 2007

Alex Says:

January 12th 2008

Levi Says:

My guess will be January 14, 2008. I hope it is sooner though.

thingol Says:

january 3, 2008

hungary Says:

I think is a 22 weeks !

ash w Says:

1st of feb 2008. yup.

Adam Says:

March 1st sooo when there arent new tv shows on and the commercials arent paying the bills the network will do whats fair!!! give them the DVD and internet % streams

gamerperson Says:

well, someone already took my b-day so I’ll go a day later: mar 28th.

Alysha Says:

No idea. I’m hoping ASAP so I’m going to guess 28 January 08. (I hope it doesn’t drag out to June 08 as some suggest!)

buzmeg Says:

TODAY

Jonathon Says:

i really think that it will end by this weekend (BEFORE DECEMBER 10) i heard that talks are resuming so let’s keep our fingers crossed and bring heroes back and also 24!!!!

Kanyecc Says:

Januar 17th, 2008

Joann Says:

If I had to guess, December 30, 2007 at 11:59 pm

edubtv Says:

February 5th, 2008

sony Says:

ill say may 10th

Supermalz Says:

More than likely it’ll last until June 2004. Sometime around the 43rd?

Alex Says:

Well i think that it will not be ending anytime soon, so i’m going to say 26 June 2008. after they have felt the effects of this season of no TV and need to get more stuff written so they dont lose another

Belly Says:

February 29th, 2008, just because there is one next year. Boy, I hope the writers finally get a fair deal soon enough. Am already storing seasons of awesome shows I never have the time to watch for next year. I am NOT watching celebrity apprentice. Or american gladiator.

Brian Reed Says:

July 23rd, 2008

MATT Says:

June 17, 2008

becky Says:

Alright, amending my guess- I now say Febrauary 20th 2008. This sucksssssssssss

Allie Says:

February 7th, 2008. Hope I’m wrong and it ends sooner, though.

Kim Says:

Im going to say January 25th.. It’s also my 15 yr anniversary.

Matt Cottingham Says:

Feb 10, ‘08. Just in time to get me new episodes.

Erin Says:

I’m guessing this strike is going to last quite a while. So…
08/15/08

Petr Says:

04/11/2008

Kate Says:

March 16, 2008

Jim Says:

While the writers deserve what their asking for its still a huge monetary increase, so the APTPA (is that right? its so long!) won’t want to back down, but neither will WGA since they do deserve it.
SOOO
I am going to guess:
June, 21 2008

(thats a huge guess, but I am almost positive it will end in June)

Laura Vaughn Says:

I am going to guess Feb 26, 2008 it would be a nice birthday present to me from them…lol

Daffy Duck Says:

i hope it ends very soon. there are two points. sure the writers are being cut short. but i dont think any of them are in a box and beging for money on the street. they’re to greedy. then you can say that the other people are to greedy for keeping so much of the money. i say just change the pay and get the office back on tv. AHHHH

Sherise Says:

I’m gonna follow the pattern that a lot of other people have and go with my birthday….07/13/08.

I could use a nice birthday present.

Emily Says:

I’m going to say January 22, 2008, It’s my b-day and maybe for a present scrubs will be able to air a few extra episodes in it’s last season. :( hopefully sooner though.

JUP Says:

Well Everyone else is going to go with their birthday so i’m gonna go with Novemeber 11, 2008. i know this sounds late-ish but here’s my reasoning…after they run outta episodes, the’re not gonna get much by ending it sooner and giving them what they want so they will stand strong, after the SAG and whoever else is planning on going on strike in june/july it will be like a couple months after that. i would also like to place a second one but this one won’t count. ok, it started november 5th, the past 2 long strikes were 20 weeks and 21 weeks, so i’ll go with 22 weeks after nov. 5th, which is April 7th, 1 week longer than the longest.

SMB Says:

I’m guessing february 3

drivethrough Says:

l don`t think the writer can hold up much longer since most of writers will go bust becaues you don`t get pay for not working .

eydie Says:

I have heard that the writer’s strike will begin to affect soap operas in late january. i know that you do not come between a woman and her “stories”. i think public backlash will knock some sense into both sides. we don’t have to watch tv. not when we have the internet, books, and music. they run the risk of people actually realizing that they can do without tv. but i believe the strike will be settled by mid february, my guess is february 15.

Kyle Says:

I’m guessing April 14th (my birthday)….hopefully it ends before that

Cassidy Says:

Let’s go with Feb. 14th

BEN Says:

MARCH 23RD

Toby Says:

My Prediction is complete: September 9th, 12:35pm 2009

Both Sides Will Lose.

The year of 2008 will be the year of re-runs. Many people will stop watching Television other than to watch sports and News, like in the 1950s. A new revolution is about to take hold of this world and it is called digital distribution.
At first, everything will be free or based on subscription per month. Online rental services where one can download a movie and watch what they want, will escalate to a phenomenal rate. It will change the way people live in the entertainment world. Major hollywood Movie/TV studios will fall along side Unions. Because both relay on the other for money. The Studios need the Unions, and the Unions need Studios. After the revolution has taken place for a year and people have gotten used to their online media comfort of push of a button technology luxary, large prodution studios will slowly disappear because they will no longer be needed. Unions will become a funny story to laugh about like “remember when we went on strike for..” and the nation will actually have new problems once the big wigs take hold of this new erupting revolution.
Then it starts all over again but in a different era. Sorry to all the fans. But your shows will come back on until the Unions fall prey to another wrist-slitting competition of wits with a new mindset.

Alex Says:

That was lol Toby. Honesty… I laughed my ass out (thanks for that).
No offense, but I suggest you try watching less sci-fi movies.
