  - now it’s official -- (link) - hollywood big shot May 1, 20:40 5
    - The last writers strike in 2008-2009 lasted 100 days. Before that? In 1988 one lasted 153 days. -- nm - Qale May 1, 20:49 3
      - And the ramifications from those are still felt today. -- nm - ST: TNG: Shades of Gray si May 1, 21:01 2
        
        Funny story! I just loaded up Netflix and it told me my "Continue Watching" was this exact episode, halfway through, or the show Treason. - Beryllium May 1, 22:29 1
        
        ah! right, that's why it sucks. It's a clip show! -- nm - Beryllium May 1, 22:33
    - “the studios’ responses have been wholly insufficient given the existential crisis writers are facing” -- nm - hollywood big shot May 1, 20:41
dunno how true but one rumor i see on writer twitter is that Netflix was holding out versus the studios -- nm - hollywood big shot May 1, 20:14 5
- You mean the rumor I keep posting here on ST? - Mop May 1, 20:20
- must not have been that close if they didn't wait until midnight to announce -- nm - hollywood big shot May 1, 20:16 3
  - Netflix will hold out indefinitely. It's in their interest. - Mop May 1, 20:22 2
    - the only people happier to isolate Netflix than the writers would be the studios themselves -- nm - hollywood big shot May 1, 20:33 1
      - I don’t know if the studios can make their own deals, but if Hollywood can make a deal without Netflix, they *must*. -- nm - Mop May 1, 21:16
Teamsters say they won't cross picket lines. Writers strike, Hollywood shuts down. -- (link) - Mop May 1, 20:11
