View Full Version : Should us Soap Opera fans worry about the possible writers strike? 1980stvfan 04-30-2023, 06:37 PM The writers guild have until tommorow to come up with a deal. Articles say daytime soaps along with talk shows would be most impacted. But the last writers strike in 2007 Soaps hired temp writers. 80sTrivia 05-03-2023, 05:48 AM I know during previous strikes, the soaps have hired temp writers, some with no knowledge of the show or characters, so the quality of the writing and storylines really suffers during a strike. Hopefully, the strike will end soon. The soaps are already an endangered species and if a strike goes on too long, it won't bode well for the 4 remaining shows. Well, 3, since Days of Our Lives left network television and is only on streaming platform Peacock... :( |
