Dune 2 would have been in theaters last week if they’d given SAG the deal they’re gonna give em today back in July when the writing was on the wall -- nm - hollywood big shot Oct 28, 11:17 6
- networks would have had a full season of shows if they’d made a deal with WGA in May -- nm - hollywood big shot Oct 28, 11:20 5
  - And given no one's really watching network anyhow -- nothing of value was lost. To compare this to car manufacturers is *vastly* overestimating - Will Hunting Oct 28, 11:22 4
    - did I miss the part where networks stopped actually airing shows for ad money? -- nm - hollywood big shot Oct 28, 11:23 3
      - They replaced it all with cheaper reality shows. They ain't suffering too badly. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 28, 11:26 2
        
        Those reality shows technically have writers though, so you at least need WGA for them. -- nm - ty97 Oct 28, 11:37
        
        they’re putting all their expensive streaming shows on network for free because their cheap unscripted junk is such a viable substitute -- nm - hollywood big shot Oct 28, 11:29
