Here's a question. With THE INSIDE, we all know the cast options expired (or whatever the term is - I've no clue) before the show was officially dead. FOX failed to renew them, so we all knew the show was deader than a dead thing before Variety and the like announced it was dead.
Shows like Reaper... Surely those options are going to come up over the next few months, whilst the shows aren't even shooting any more? Unless a show has been a TV Hit, I can't see networks/studios wanting to extend cast stuff, so that'll kill the new shows?
Personally, I think Cuse is damaging the WGA's position here. That's purely a personal point of view. ABC have already made and announced the decision to air those 8 episodes, so he isn't risking loosing their franchise. He isn't costing people jobs.

Though, if those episodes totally suck ass (not out of the realm of possibility with Lost), it could lose them audience in the long run...
Can you tell us your issues. I'm inclined to agree with you, but I'd like to solidify my reasoning.
Ailleann, I don't disagree. Cuse has already gone on record and said he doesn't want ABC to air the episodes from Feb 2008 (as they are planning) as he thinks the show could 'canteen out of control'. Which sounds to me like he thinks it already sucks ass to me. I suppose you could argue he could make it good during post production.
Personal opinion: if you aim to strike and not damage anything for either side, you aren't going to get what you want. Not near. And that's not with regards to writing or studios, as I know nothing, that's from strikes of yester year.

Then the voting began. There was even a vote about the vote -- whether it had to be unanimous or not.
I know there are Buffistas who are members of the WGA, but I didn't know the WGA was run by Buffistas.
Did anybody vote No Preference?

I had the exact same thought when I read this!

Ha! My thought was "hey, it's not just us!"
