But it turns out that they're still shooting.
Someone I know on
Moonlight
said they'd just started shooting episode 12 (er, I'm guessing that's episode 13, counting the pilot). I don't know how many episode scripts they were supposed to have had on hand at the time of the strike. That looks like the last one they'll be shooting before the holidays.
I just got the internal AMPTP release and started laughing out loud at my desk.
So it seems this rumor has some weight to it.
And the general public is probably completely ignorant of this. They'll watch the show if it airs, regardless of who wrote it. God, that's got to be so weird for the
Moonlight
writers, to have to come back to a story that other people have mucked about with.
I happened to be looking at my roommates' TV Guide (I was bored) and noticed that they ran four letters, all various shades of contemptuous of the writers' actions. Actually, there was very little mention of the strike besides that -- such as what shows had more episodes in the can, et cetera.
Do I detect some editorial 'bias', do you think?

I wish they'd put the new proposal up on their website. I'm hearing contradictory things.
I can send it if you email me at my profile. It doesn't really say anything though. It is all spin. I'm sure United Hollywood will have it up shortly.
United Hollywood makes me throw up in my mouth a little.
Thanks! I will do that.
I'd love for them to put up a comprehensive document like they did with the October 25th proposal. I prefer being able to read through it myself and not have to count on interpretations.
A comprehensive document like that would definitely make it easier to see the truth of their proposal. Right now there is just a bunch of numbers that don't mean anything.
