Mine was colleagues who clearly had no problem with my going to work, but it just felt off.

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!
Tina Fey (writer and actor) is picketing. So, they really can't move forward, cause in order to write her character out of an episode, they'd need . . . a writer.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
"It's a fascinating position these showrunners are put into," another studio exec said. "From a pure economics standpoint, if they can provide extra scripts, that's extra fees for a lot of people who need the money. On the other hand, the more episodes we have, supposedly the less pressure there will be on us. But I would think if I were a writer, I'd get as many scripts into shooting position as possible."
I'm sure you would, Mr. Studio Exec. You know, if you were a writer @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Daniels Pickets ‘Office’ Production:
“We’re trying to shut down ‘The Office,’” Mr. Daniels said. “We have the star of our show and the entire writing staff behind us.”
A bold move!
Mr. Daniels said there’s only one unproduced “Office” script that’s ready to go, but it’s a good one.
“Last week we had our best table reading of the entire run of the show, and that’s what we were going to shoot this week,” he said.
The best ever? Really? Whaaaat a coincidence!

Shawn Ryan says the Shield series finale that he won't be able to work on is the best script the writers have ever produced. I find it highly suspect that the BEST STUFF IN THE WORLD is happening riiiiight before the strike. Hee.

aren't season finales in the spring? They really think this won't be resolved in time?

The Shield is on FX, Laga, and I think they shoot their entire season before airing. I don't know when the last season airs.
As for not being resolved in time, I think the last strike lasted five months. Five months from now is the end of March, and that would definitely affect all season finales.
