The Office looks fucked by the writers strike. Production gonna stop is the word.
How is it different from every other sitcom?

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
They're ahead script wise. The Office is only filming a few weeks ahead (Whedon's office was filmed very recently, and only just aired). Steve Carell didn't turn up on set today.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
The Office looks fucked by the writers strike. Production gonna stop is the word. The writers are also actors and producers on the show.
Aw, crap, that sucks. I wondered how it worked when writers had other roles. I guess they have to ditch everything? That doesn't seem right! They're not writing! Just act! Say the words you already wrote!

It would mean crossing the picket line!

But they're not writing!
Unless you mean, like, physically crossing the line to get into the studio. Which, okay.

Always Anti-fascist!
The writers are our brothers and sisters, man. We have to support them, I think. We're writers.ETA: Camera guys are Teamsters, right? Teamsters are striking too. And, okay, so some of them are the snotty brothers and sisters that Get Everything, but, you know...if we don't watch the reruns and crap we can get them back to work.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I've only ever walked through an informational picket, but that was plenty uncomfortable!

Curious. Steve didn't turn up for The Office according to James Gunn's blog, so without their lead I think B.J. is pretty clear to not show.
