I know I'm not supposed to watch replacement programming, but I don't suppose there's an exception for the new American Gladiators? On the basis that...it will be really funny?
Doesn't winter seem more like archiving season?

Well, they were talking about it before the strike, so it's not exactly strike-provoked content. It would have hit the airwaves regardless, I think. I guess there's a loophole for you.

Hey, I'm not telling anyone what to watch or what to not watch. Personally, I don't think that the suggested "boycott" would make any difference whatsoever in the negotiations.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
I am so worried that the new American Gladiators will suck. And that will make me sad, because I adored the old one.

Heh. I know what shrift read today, too.

I am so waffle-y about the boycot. Not because I would be watching any replacement programming, but because a large part of my holiday present shopping involves DVDs.

Yeah, doubtful, but it still sits wrong with me to be crossing picket lines, even metaphorically. But I am starting to get confused about what I can and can't let myself watch or buy.

Yeah, me too. I'm definitely making an effort not to watch anything online, choosing instead to...obtain things in other ways.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
But if you aren't watching on-line then the ad revenues go down... which just supports the network argument of "we don't make any money on line"
If there were an organized boycott of online programming with letters and demands and the like that would be different, but as it is I don't see the purpose.
