Hollywood braces for writers' strike that could shut down production on most TV shows | CNN Business

The clock is ticking toward a costly strike that could shut down production on most television shows, pushing back the return of many programs now set for the fall. Last month, members of the Writers Guild of America voted 98% in favor of going on strike if no new deal is reached before their current contract expires at 11:59 pm PDT Monday. With less than a day left before the deadline, the two sides appear far apart. The talks come at a time both sides are feeling pain.

“If this goes on we’ll see more reality, news and sports,” said Jonathan Handel, an entertainment attorney and author of the book, Hollywood on Strike!: An Industry at War in the Internet Age. Handel is one of those who thinks a strike, quite possibly a months-long strike, is likely. “There’s a lot of unfinished business from 2020 negotiations that were raised then but then put on ice by the pandemic,” he said.
