The Office


While I agree with what the WGA union is asking for here I think it’s going to really starting hurting those of us at home soon. The Office punch is going to come even closer than you might have been suspecting. Greg Daniels has told E! News that the series has just one extra show in the can and ready to go after this week’s episode. Hmm, maybe they should have cut those hour long episodes into halves! Ah well. The Office was even more susceptible to this strike as many of the actors and actresses are actually also on the writing staff and that includes the regional manager Michael (Steve Carell). So I was glad to hear both he and Rainn Wilson joined the cause and sat out from filming another episode. Take a look at the video below to see why the minds behind The Office (and the rest of our daily entertainment) deserve compensation for their work. It’s pretty interesting as I didn’t know they weren’t really paid for episodes watched online versus viewings through broadcasts.

Lucky for you Wild Bluff Media doesn’t rely on witty, skilled, or trained writers to cram words on the screen, so keep coming back to get your fill in this strike induced drought.
