No Tim? For shame.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

The Dick Wolf one made me spit take.
I would so watch the Joss Whedon one, based on casting alone.
On Tim's 24, the season would open with hour 12, and then alternate hour 1, hour 13, hour 2...

Oh yeah. And I reacted as Plei did to the Dick Wolf one.
There wouldn't be a Tim version of 24. They're cutting down on the torture.

From PerformInk (a Chicago trade paper) article on the deal:
The WGA deal does not include reality TV writers or animation writers, the latter of which is covered by the International Association of Theatrical and Stage Employees (IATSE).
IATSE? How odd. I mean, I can make a guess as to the history of how that happened, but it's still weird.

Perhaps all of the above.
The promo starts with, "The wait is over. The writers are back."
Still pales before Stephen Colbert's proclamation, "The writers are back, and they are sexy! Who wrote this?!?!"
After months of speculation, NBC confirmed on Tuesday that it would sidestep the annual star-studded “upfront” presentation for advertisers and hold a series of client meetings with media buyers instead.
Perhaps more important for television viewers, the network said it would embrace a year-round prime-time programming schedule, jettisoning the frequently criticized practice of saving most shows for the traditional September- to-May television season.
