Even if the writers were to strike, we have 2 seasons of voicework, and most likely by now 2 seasons of animation too.

26 breaks down to 13 episode seasons. Now if they have more, I'd love to see the release on that, as I only caught the one for the initial order of 26 +special. |

So for example things like Transformers, Venture Brothers, Ninja Turtles and the like are safe. One of the bright spots in the whole thing that at least we will have cartoons which oddly enough seem to be getting better writing these days.
Video games are also safe since they don't have writers union either so if you looking for something like the next Bioshock there is no danger of the game getting put on hold for the strike.
Yes it bites for TV if you enjoy things like Heroes, and it's starting to look bad now for the '09 movies but everything is not lost yet, just big live action TV, the prime time big cartoons, and movies. But at least we have smaller TV, cartoons, games, comics and books to fall back on for entertainment. |

Thanks a lot!" ^^; |

It's a d*ck measuring contest to the AMPTP at this point, not a rational position. |
