Plus, the AP mentioned that the studios sit on huge piles of scripts that they option but wait to produce for whatever reason. Since the actors and directors are still working, there's little cause for alarm except if you're a fan of topical programs such as the Tonight Show or the Daily Show-- those shows need good writers 24/7 in case news hits and needs mocked. So, yeah, expect reruns of those, with the rest of the TV landscape hitting reruns in about two or three months. Besides, I'm not too thrilled with the idea of writing a script, anyway; my dialogue is strong, yes, but I'm trying to rely less on that and focus more on straight descriptive prose, which I am not the best at to be nice about it. To be brutally honest, I need a lot of practice with it and NaNo is shaping up to be a good way to do that.
