Hollywood execs scrambling for response to writers strike literally everyone saw coming
scripts sitting in their inboxes, instead of too few. Working writers being working writers, it turns out that a lot of the workers now striking submitted
scripts to the studios ahead of the Monday night deadline, and now there’s a glut.
Some are sending the notes along with a disclaimer saying, basically, “Please don’t look at or think about these until the strike is over.”; some have even said that they like “ the idea of being able to get a jump on things when the strike ultimately concluded.” The central issue is that none of them seem to have had a plan in place to deal with this,completely predictable; meanwhile, there doesn’t seem to be a whole lot of reflection, either,
on the fact that none of these people actually have very much to do, professionally, if writers aren’t providing them with material to work on.
