"Late Show" writers, give us a hint?
We're a little surprised to find precious little reaction in the online realm to the Worldwide Pants-WGA pact, particularly from those directly affected by the deal that allows CBS' "Late Show with David Letterman" and "Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson" to return, writers and all, on Wednesday.
We've been regular readers of the LateShowWritersonStrike.com blog since its debut -- but other than a cursory post on Saturday to acknowledge the news (with a barb about it appearing first on the South Asia Women's Forum website -- gotta love Google News), there's no discourse, cheeky or otherwise, on this significant development in the strike.
We can certainly appreciate not wanting to appear to be claiming victory when so many other WGA members are still deep in the trenches. And it is still the holidays and all...but Scribe Vibe would love to get a comment or two here from the "Late Show" and "Late Late Show" folks (and a hint of what we might expect from Letterman and Ferguson on Wednesday's shows would be really fantastic).
Either way, we'll be staying up late or TiVo-ing on Wednesday night -- undoubtedly these will be segs not to be missed.



I'm sure you're just an "online" shill for Variety and its corporate masters, but have you bothered to look @ deadlinehollywooddaily.com, Unitedhollywood.com or even dividedhollywood.com (who, like you, has questioned the strike's logic since day 1, though for more honorable reasons)? There's plenty of discussion re: the Letterman deal and how other companies are also coming to the table. You're a writer? HA! You're obviously not a reader.

E, whatchoo talkin bout? Variety has covered the Letterman return extensively. You're obviously not a reader.
