WRITERS’ STRIKE END STARTS TV PRODUCTION FRENZY
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Lights, camera, action – but first, here come the writers. Members of the Writers Guild of America were planning a return to work Wednesday after voting to end their strike on its 100th day, thus allowing Hollywood to jump-start stalled production of numerous TV sitcoms and dramas.
"It will be all hands on deck for the writing staff," said Chris Mundy, co-executive producer of the CBS drama "Criminal Minds." Actual production won’t begin, however, until scripts have been completed, which could take days or even weeks.
