Stewart, Colbert, back on the air, it's not looking good for the WGA at all. Last night A Daily Show with Jon Stewart and The Colbert Report returned to television without there writers, and you know what? They were funny. The longer this strike goes on the funnier they will become as they get used to "improvising" there way through a show, in fact Colbert's show looked like it did before the strike minus the opening puns and The Wørd, I wouldn't have noticed the absence of writers at all if the empty teleprompters had not been pointed out. (Also The Colbert Report ran 5-10 minutes over, nice.) Suddenly the WGA is looking increasingly weak, the late night shows without writers don't appear to need them, (Leno just as bad, Conan just as funny, Kimmel, well Kimmel still needs them) and it turns out Jon Stewart got permission from Viacom to negotiate a separate deal with them the way Letterman did and the WGA declined! I'm no labor strategist, but if you're trying to get your demands set as an industry standard, and then decline to negotiate, that seems, FUCKING STUPID! Again, the WGA's demands are very reasonable and the AMPTP should listen, but it looks like WGA has their heads up their asses as well.
