Um, people? I know we all love the show and of course want it to return, but how about some sympathy for all the people this strike is hitting in harder places than what to watch on Thursday nights? Everyone knows the writers plight and most support them, but this thing is industry-wide. Actors and production crews, not stars that can go without but extras and day-players barely making rent, are out of work. Advertisers are beginning to pull spots and stop production on new commercials. It’s about to be Christmas, do you have any idea what kind of effect this could have on the economy? We need an end to this strike, and not just so we have new episodes.

Desperately hoping this is true. Nikki was right about the agents getting talks to happen, so it seems likely she’d be right about this too. But I don’t want to get caught up in dreams of a full season only to have them come crashing down. *sigh* Unfortunately, the news blackout probably means there won’t be anything official right away, though why it’s “before Christmas”, and not, like, “before December” I don’t know. Regardless, please, please let it be true!
