I hope so. What with the Unions messing up programming I lost interest in many programs due to forced hiatus which lasted an entire season.

I understand the unions point of view and the company point of view but, they were both short sighted as to effect it would have on viewership.

I no longer watch most TV and now consider myself a drive by viewer.

They are competing with the internet and other important life things like well... paying attention to other people in the room.

So a positive social impact but they are paying for their avarice.

Ditto. Before the strike, I was a little more interested in the TV. Still followed a couple of shows - 24 was one that I'd go out of my way to watch.

Post-strike, nada. We actually lost cable for a week due to a storm just recently, and I didn't miss it a bit.

The kids don't care for anything but Sesame Street. Now, if I can get Mrs WBill thinking in the same direction, I'd be saving 60 bucks a month.
