WRITER'S STRIKE = LATE NIGHT REPEATS
Monday, November 05, 2007
The Writers Guild of America is on strike and that means there will be some major changes on television effective immediately. Both CBS late shows, The Late Show with David Letterman and The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson will be repeats all week. Shows like these that rely on the days events will be hit hardest by the strike since they rely heavily on their writers. If the strike isn't settled soon, also expect to see even more reality shows in primetime. The strike couldn't have come at a worse time for the networks. It's the first full week of sweeps.
UPDATE: The strike has also shut down The Tonight Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, The Daily Show and The Colbert Report.
