I was sent a link to a MySpace page for a writer on Days that was fired during the strike. It doesn't look like he was rehired.
I thought that the agreement was that writers would be rehired.
Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Not all. There's contract conditions.

Apparently the head writer and pretty much all the staff writers for Days were fired during the strike and they used scab writers. I don't have any good rumor source, a friend that knows I care about writers sent me the MySpace link.

Laura, as part of the strike settlement, those writers are supposed to get their jobs back.

I hope he does. I was thinking the show must have been banking on the strike ending soon while filming this week's episodes. All week has been shot inside a plane that only has "two hours of fuel and even less oxygen." All Week. All--Weeeeeek.
Damnit, you would think these people would learn not to fly anywhere together.
It's made last weeks Shirley Jones appearance, maternal revelation and death within six episodes seem like a whirlwind. Even with her magic lucky charms accent.

Days has that part of soapyness down. 2 hours can last a full week, and kids grown from infancy to teens in 2 years. Beats Reality.

Huh, I stand corrected.

There also is supposed to be a favored nations clause in regard to SAG negotiations isn't there?

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
I don't think the favored nations clause (although agreed on verbally) made it into the written deal. I could be wrong.
