    • "Writers Guild of America West @WGAWest: The Board of Directors of the @WGAwest and the Council of the @WGAeast, acting upon the authority granted to them by their memberships, have voted unanimously to call a strike, effective 12:01 AM, Tuesday, May 2."

      • Yeah it is going to be ugly. Streaming has really screwed over the writers and they are in it for the long haul to get what they are owed.

              Last time the writers went on strike, it ended network television. The streamers would be wise to pay up.

                  That's either going to be very good or destroy two things I love.

                  Why can't people take the win for a good piece of art and move on? Why do they have to be so greedy?

                      Imagine somebody with insider State Department knowledge trying to cross In The Loop and The Americans. It's less funny than the former and less stupid than the latter, but it still has those pawprints on it.

                      I'm only a few episodes in but it can't pick a lane. It is trying to hold geek insiders like Veep but also throw out enough adventure com-dram for the morons to pay the bills. It's mostly surviving because Rufus Sewell is such a hoot.

                          He is the show. The lead actress is underwhelming (pauses to cover head). The writing is Sorkin Standard cliche. The setting is great but somehow the sets themselves suck. So what's left is Sewell and some good supporting characters. It is definitely veering towards "so stupid it's good."

                          It's very like the British version of House of Cards.

                            Rufus rules.

                            I love Keri Russel but I feel like this show did her dirty. I watched it this weekend - rainy and cold, I wasn’t glued to my screen but had it on while doing other things. Kind of meh, fine.

                            season two already announced and I don’t really care

                              I had never seen Kerri Russell before. My reaction from the show is she is a poor man's Julia Roberts. Her claim to fame is she's married to Perry Mason.

                              TIL Rufus Sewell is the guy in Dark City.
