L.A. production steady despite strike
Hollywood Reporter: "At first glance, the statistics that FilmL.A. are releasing Friday would appear counterintuitive. But against a long-running drop in L.A. film shoots attributed to runaway production, the strike threat appeared to trigger a surge of film and TV production in the second quarter of last year, which offset some of the long-term declines."

It really bothers me that reality TV is replacing real acting. I much prefer the art of acting to the art of being mean so that the camera men will pay attention to you. I just hope that once the strike ends reality TV will take a big hit and run for the hills. Do I think this is likely though? not so much.
Well there goes my whole comment about before. Well I'm not too surprised that reality tv has keep nexworks and tv going with the writers strike. Its everywhere and one thing people love watching more than anything is people making themselves look like fools. It really disturbes me that this is the case but hopefully this will not be the case soon.
I mean, of course, it doesn't impact them immediately, because they had the script forever. But it's really unfortunate the impact is not as big as the writers want, because I feel like the writers want this to be over as much the rest of the market does. I hope things resolve soon enough for the audience.
