It seemed there was some glimmer of hope with reports saying how the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (let's call them the "bigwigs") and the Writers Guild Association had once again resumed negotiations. Could there be an early Christmas present for both sides as well as us tv viewers? After watching the last episode of Heroes, I'm itching to know whether Nathan (spoiler alert!) survives...and how will I survive without my almost-weekly dose of Gossip Girl??
Alas, that glimmer quickly turned to dust.
The bigwigs claim they are "puzzled and disheartened" by another breakdown. Seriously?? We are talking about rich bigwigs here with their big fat pockets which most of us can't even make in our lifetime including them writers!! How confident they must seem by losing a couple of millions (hello reality shows!) as opposed to achieving a win-win situation.
In the meantime, the WGA has been gaining support from the stars ranging from Woody Allen to Sean Penn to the cast of Ugly Betty via the "Speechless" campaign.
Imagine the misanthropic House without his witty sarcasm..
..or witty soundbites such as this "Great. Butchest moment of my life and it's wasted on my sister." Kevin, who is gay, after opening a stuck window for sister, Sarah on Brothers & Sisters..
'nuff said.
