1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:02,880
Speaker 1: Direct from Hollywood with Ryan Seacrest.

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:06,280
Speaker 2: You've probably heard that the WGA, or Writers Guild of America,

3
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:08,280
Speaker 2: has gone on strike in Hollywood, demanding a new deal

4
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:09,920
Speaker 2: that gives them their fair piece of the pie on

5
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 2: streaming services which haven't been properly paying them for their

6
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:15,000
Speaker 2: creative contributions to shows that we love. You might think

7
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,919
Speaker 2: it won't really affect you, but it will impact you

8
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 2: when you get to see your favorite shows. Multiple scripted

9
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,880
Speaker 2: series that we're actively writing new seasons have shut down

10
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 2: the writer's room until the strike ends. With no scripts,

11
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 2: there's no shows effective immediately. Cobra Kai's halted Season six

12
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 2: Yellow Jackets after only a single day of developing. Season

13
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 2: three has followed. Suit Abvid Elementary has also come to

14
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 2: a stop. It's just a small sample there of the

15
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,879
Speaker 2: work stoppages, with more to come. Too early to tell

16
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 2: how long the strike's going to last, but the longer

17
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 2: it goes on, the longer fans will have to wait

18
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 2: for new seasons to arrive.

19
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 1: That's Direct from Hollywood.
