March 19th, 2008

I know a lot of people believe this rolls till June…. but I think the WGA stays strong through the winter and then dwindling personal checking accounts forces their hand in March.

Since most people are saying they won’t even start talking until after the new year, I’m going to guess February 12th, 2008.

(that’s also my 25th birthday, hint hint)

PS: TV Addict, trim your fingernails!

2/29/08.

January 14th, 2008. You can ship to Kazakhstan right?

March 25th 2008.

That’s when I’ll have my wisdom teeth removed so I’ll need some good news. ;D

I would say April 20th 2008 but I hope I’m wrong and it’s earlier.

December 25th (what a nice christmas giftt would be, right ?) !
hope you ship to france !!

I supose after new year, so I’ll bet for february 4th, 2008

I’ll go with my birthday…March 21st (please let this strike be a memory by this time)

Jan 08, 2008.

Although given the state of the economy and the nation, Jan 20th, 2009 is always a possibly.

February 6, 2008

But I really hope I’m wrong and it’s before the new year!

March 27th, 2008

My guess is December 18th, but don’t ask me why, ’cause i won’t tell

I’m going to be optimistic here and go with December 30th. Cross your fingers it ends soon!

December 8th, on my bday! *-*

I was going to say March 21st, but someone already picked that, so i’ll go 10 days sooner and say March 11th.

1/30/2008

I say Dec. 23, 2007. I think it will be a run-up to Christmas Eve (watching Miracle on 34th Street might just make a difference)

I’m gonna go with April 25. But, man, do I hope it’s over long before that!

1/3/2008

never!

Hoping pre-TCA. January just wouldn’t be the same.

I’ll go for March 7th.

Although I too hope it’s long before this date, I will go ahead and guess February 23, 2008.

I’m going to go with May 30 – It’s a little late, but I feel like it’s going to go straight through the end of the season.

As much as I wished this would be resolved by New Year’s, I’m guessing they won’t go back to the bargaining table til after the holidays. So I’ll go January 29, 2008.

I’ll be optimistic and say January 16th, 2008.

When do the network upfronts happen? I read somewhere that if this thing isn’t over before then it will mean that we definitely won’t get any new tv until 2009. Is that true?

I’ll go with December 19, 2007.

2/15/2008

January 27, 2008. Because I’m optimistic that it will end before February.

February 15th, after valentine’s day

1/11/08

I’ll go ahead and say early on January 1,2008. Maybe some studio executive will be very drunk and just sign some papers, and the whole deal will be done. Here’s hoping =).

March 26 … 2008 !!

february 16th
no reason

but i really hope soon, i dont know what im gonna do!

I’m going with March 11 my little sister’s b-day!!

i’ve heard rumors but im going to put my faith in the writers and execs and say……………february 16th

Jan. 26, 2008… that way it will be the best birthday present since my favorite show will still be able to have a full season!

January 21st

12/15/07

April 4, 2008 is my guess….

Buy I REALLY hope I’m wrong and it’s WAY earlier!

March 15th — Beware the Ides of March!

I think it will end on January 17, 2008….or at least here is hoping maybe we will all get lucky and there will be an end before that.

January 14th 2008

1.18.08; and it will all have been a part of the biggest promotional campaign ever… right JJ?

I say December 20, 2007.

My guess is…January 9th.

February 7, 2008

My guess is 12/13

Jan .6th. 2008

I think 25.01.2008

april 2, 2008, but I won’t be sad, if it ends before…

I’m going to be optimistic and November 30. I know, it’s naive but wouldn’t it be nice if people had pay-checks before the holidays?

Well if these People have any sence they would settle soon. I am saying Nov.30. 07 God Bless…..

March 24, 2008

December 7th

I guess…… um……… Feb 13th. My best friends B day. I would choole mine but thats not will October ans if it rolls on till then we will really be screwed. People need to grow up, and give other their due. The writers work ard for gosh sakes so give them what they want. asking for a set % is not unreasonable. If the show/movie/whatever tanks, then your safe, if it makes big buvks then yor still covered.

april 1st

I say March 15th 2008.

April 1st 2008

I’d appreciate the end of the strike as a birthday present, so I mark down Dec. 4th, 2007

January 12th 2008

My guess will be January 14, 2008. I hope it is sooner though.

january 3, 2008

I think is a 22 weeks !

1st of feb 2008. yup.

March 1st sooo when there arent new tv shows on and the commercials arent paying the bills the network will do whats fair!!! give them the DVD and internet % streams

well, someone already took my b-day so I’ll go a day later: mar 28th.

No idea. I’m hoping ASAP so I’m going to guess 28 January 08. (I hope it doesn’t drag out to June 08 as some suggest!)

TODAY

i really think that it will end by this weekend (BEFORE DECEMBER 10) i heard that talks are resuming so let’s keep our fingers crossed and bring heroes back and also 24!!!!

Januar 17th, 2008

If I had to guess, December 30, 2007 at 11:59 pm

February 5th, 2008

ill say may 10th

5/2/08

More than likely it’ll last until June 2004. Sometime around the 43rd?

Well i think that it will not be ending anytime soon, so i’m going to say 26 June 2008. after they have felt the effects of this season of no TV and need to get more stuff written so they dont lose another

February 29th, 2008, just because there is one next year. Boy, I hope the writers finally get a fair deal soon enough. Am already storing seasons of awesome shows I never have the time to watch for next year. I am NOT watching celebrity apprentice. Or american gladiator.

July 23rd, 2008

June 17, 2008

Alright, amending my guess- I now say Febrauary 20th 2008. This sucksssssssssss

February 7th, 2008. Hope I’m wrong and it ends sooner, though.

Im going to say January 25th.. It’s also my 15 yr anniversary.

Feb 10, ’08. Just in time to get me new episodes.

I’m guessing this strike is going to last quite a while. So…
08/15/08

March 3, 2008

March 16, 2008

While the writers deserve what their asking for its still a huge monetary increase, so the APTPA (is that right? its so long!) won’t want to back down, but neither will WGA since they do deserve it.
SOOO
I am going to guess:
June, 21 2008

(thats a huge guess, but I am almost positive it will end in June)

I am going to guess Feb 26, 2008 it would be a nice birthday present to me from them…lol

i hope it ends very soon. there are two points. sure the writers are being cut short. but i dont think any of them are in a box and beging for money on the street. they’re to greedy. then you can say that the other people are to greedy for keeping so much of the money. i say just change the pay and get the office back on tv. AHHHH

I’m gonna follow the pattern that a lot of other people have and go with my birthday….07/13/08.

I could use a nice birthday present.

I’m going to say January 22, 2008, It’s my b-day and maybe for a present scrubs will be able to air a few extra episodes in it’s last season. hopefully sooner though.

Well Everyone else is going to go with their birthday so i’m gonna go with Novemeber 11, 2008. i know this sounds late-ish but here’s my reasoning…after they run outta episodes, the’re not gonna get much by ending it sooner and giving them what they want so they will stand strong, after the SAG and whoever else is planning on going on strike in june/july it will be like a couple months after that. i would also like to place a second one but this one won’t count. ok, it started november 5th, the past 2 long strikes were 20 weeks and 21 weeks, so i’ll go with 22 weeks after nov. 5th, which is April 7th, 1 week longer than the longest.

I’m guessing february 3

l don`t think the writer can hold up much longer since most of writers will go bust becaues you don`t get pay for not working .

I have heard that the writer’s strike will begin to affect soap operas in late january. i know that you do not come between a woman and her “stories”. i think public backlash will knock some sense into both sides. we don’t have to watch tv. not when we have the internet, books, and music. they run the risk of people actually realizing that they can do without tv. but i believe the strike will be settled by mid february, my guess is february 15.

I’m guessing April 14th (my birthday)….hopefully it ends before that

Let’s go with Feb. 14th

MARCH 23RD

My Prediction is complete: September 9th, 12:35pm 2009

Both Sides Will Lose.

The year of 2008 will be the year of re-runs. Many people will stop watching Television other than to watch sports and News, like in the 1950s. A new revolution is about to take hold of this world and it is called digital distribution.
At first, everything will be free or based on subscription per month. Online rental services where one can download a movie and watch what they want, will escalate to a phenomenal rate. It will change the way people live in the entertainment world. Major hollywood Movie/TV studios will fall along side Unions. Because both relay on the other for money. The Studios need the Unions, and the Unions need Studios. After the revolution has taken place for a year and people have gotten used to their online media comfort of push of a button technology luxary, large prodution studios will slowly disappear because they will no longer be needed. Unions will become a funny story to laugh about like “remember when we went on strike for..” and the nation will actually have new problems once the big wigs take hold of this new erupting revolution.
Then it starts all over again but in a different era. Sorry to all the fans. But your shows will come back on until the Unions fall prey to another wrist-slitting competition of wits with a new mindset.

That was lol Toby. Honesty… I laughed my ass out (thanks for that).
No offense, but I suggest you try watching less sci-fi movies.
