An Open Letter

Dear Writer's Guild Strikers and the Strikees,

Please find a way to come to an agreement. Please get over the dick waving contest that's going on and realize that not only are you hurting yourselves, you're hurting those who aren't union and still need to work. And lastly, but not leastly, you're hurting us, the viewers!!

Seriously. The strikees need to know that if there cannot be a compromise, Americans will turn to TV's worst nemesis - books. That's right! Get your act together and figure this out!

The strikers need to be sure that the end is worth the cost. Spending too much time being right means you'll eventually be unemployed.

And if I have to watch another 2-hour episode of The Biggest Loser, I'll start sending campaign contributions to TiVo.

Some amazing developments. I like Leno but, wow.

He got blondes to tell blonde jokes.

He had a priest, a minister, and a rabbi all come in and tell priest, minister, and rabbi jokes. They ought to keep their day jobs.

I'm finding it amazing how unfunny many of the comedians are without the writers to write material to make them funny.

I also hope the strikes ends. I'm stuck watching MSNBC and endless political coverage, the Food Channel and Rachael Ray's latest show, and the NFL Network. Of course, of late, the NFL Network has been just fine....:-)
