Writers’ Strike
I know, I know, this is very, very old news by now (well, actually, two days old, but in the industry, that’s already ages), but the Writers’ Strike has officially ended. Woohoo! During the three-month long period, picketers have walked the streets, negotiations have been made, and bills passed, until they’ve finally reached the agreement. I’m just really happy that the companies finally relented and agreed to what the writers were asking for - they are the backbone of the industry, after all. Without them, Ted Sprague would probably have flowers sprouting from his fingers instead of nuclear radiation, or Grissom would end up wearing shades at the end of every clincher lines he gives *cough*Horatio*cough* Photo taken from the United Hollywood blog. Anyway… Yeah, I’m obviously on the side of the writers. It is hard to come up with creative concepts, harder still to make them concrete by writing scripts and stories for these, so they really do deserve compensation for what they’re doing. And yes, I do want to watch what happens to my favorite shows.^^ Bring in the Petrellis! Yay! Can’t wait to watch Heroes, House, Scrubs, the CSI franchises, and all the other good shows out there.^_^ They’ll be coming in pretty late already (like, around September), from what I hear, but I think it’s worth the wait.^_^ Oh yeah, for those who are interested in the nitty-gritty details, you can check out the wiki entry here, or the United Hollywood site.

I’m glad it’s over, I’ve been getting annoyed with all the reruns and games shows…
No, I don’t travel a lot. Actually, the was the first time out of California for me. We spent a week in London and took the Chunnel to Paris for a day. I wish we could have stayed longer.

I’m so excited about this. This means LOST will have full season this year hehe. Unfortunately Heroes has filmed its season finale so we’ll have to wait half a year before volume three begins
We’re the true victims of this strike, I think.

Steffi! Yes, you’re right.:( Heehee! More Josh Halloway, eh?^_^ Yeah, Heroes will be back on… September. Urgh. But still, I guess it’s worth waiting for. It’s going to be the season on villains, after all.;)
