Nov 18, 2008 - If your like every writer I know, you are spending a lot of their striking free time writing new projects. After the last strike, there was such a tremendous wave of new material, it showed you guys are actually writing your asses off and tremendous hypocrites. As crew members we don't have the luxury of continuing to work during a strike that shuts down our show. Thanks you lousy, "aren't we clever" writers.

Nov 18, 2008 - I support the strike, but I don't support the WGA. As long as this strike goes on, there will be more and more people turning to YouTube and other forms of media.I think it's a great thing. Keep it up guys! There's a lot of young, hungry writers out there who aren't part of the WGA who will be more than happy to take your place.

Nov 18, 2008 - No, The producers don't have the individual liberty to not pay people.
Kwinnky Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - They may write, but they won't be getting paid for it.
mpandmolly Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - Writers don't get paid for the process of writing, they get paid for their finished product. WE, regular working folks, get paid for our labor. And because of the strike, we will not qualify for health benefits because we need work hours to be eligible. Thanks WGA. Writers have the luxury of writing anytime, but if you're truly striking you also should stop working/ writing. It's only fair.

Nov 18, 2008 - is that the pageant chick from ANTM that quit cuz she didn't want to get her hair cut another inch?
mlanders99 Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - How else do you propose the writers get a fair share of the internet money from the big studios? maybe they could just keep writing for free? Yea, strikes and protests are bad for the masses of ignorant viewers who will miss their new shows, boo-hoo.
thebgbb Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - Come together, pool their money and talent, and make their own studio.Too much money? Take out a business loan. Too risky? If you don't have the guts to do it yourself, why should anyone else do it for you?The studios are the ones taking the risk by fronting the money for the shows. If the show flops, do the writers have to pay their salaries back? No. So they shouldn't be griping if they don't get much when the show succeeds. Their share is fair; it's proportional to their risk.

Nov 18, 2008 - Though I see the irony of my first lines I cannot help but say I might be wrong, thinking the comment section was made to comment on the actual VIDEO someone MADE and not use it for simple talkativeness or expressions of how sweeeeeeet one of the actors shown is OR failing to understand that this clip is IRONICAL. That only for e.g.Now right to the point, but there is only one word to express what I think: ACENESS!! Oren, u rock, man! The day I 1st saw your page'll become holiday every year:P
