SAG-AFTRA vote to go on strike
- Thread starter Morpheus 02
- Start date
I can't link to it through my phone, but Deadline Hollywood has a story on its website that says that the tv series 'The Chosen', about the life of Jesus, is going to continue filming its fourth season because it's writers and actors are non-union and therefore exempt from union labor practices.
The Deadline Hollywood article I'm seeing is quite different. It says a lot of their actors are members of SAG and that SAG-AFTRA granted them a strike waiver through normal channels (including an interim agreement with SAG-AFTRA) for independent film studios.

I'm supposed to go to a Star Trek convention in August and based on what I'm seeing, I'm starting to feel a little anxious about it. I think I'm more looking forward to seeing friends and spending a week in Vegas than the convention itself.
I wonder how many % of tv subscribers going to pause their subscription, and wonder how does co. such as Dish Network get their revenue from?
and who on earth is Ellen Adair?

While some might do that, I imagine others might use the free time from no new episodes airing as a means to check out other shows they might have had an interest in by no time to watch. Same as many did during the pandemic. Granted, that example isn't 1:1 given in the pandemic, particularly the spring 2020 lockdown people were also stuck in their homes with literally nothing else to do, while now life is more or less back to pre-pandemic normal. Still, I wouldn't be surprised if sampling TV shows that have been on for years became a new thing as this strike goes on.

I'm going to a UK convention in August. I've put my name down for fan panels, even though my claim to fame is a single article on Star Trek.com.

will you allows your accountant to stop you from buying tax software at Staples, so he can file the tax return for you, charging you an arm and a leg?

That's pretty much what happens now, except it's the tax prep software companies using lobbying to charge you an arm and a leg rather than allow the government to do the work for you.
In the vast majority of cases, the government should be able to calculate your taxes and refunds and just have you agree or disagree with the calculation (with only a disagreement leading you to file your own taxes). Tax prep software companies have kept the tax process complicated for their own benefit.
My question here is if there is still ADR to do, in which case there would be an effect. I don't know enough to say one way or the other.
Here's a friendly face explaining one of the issues at stake:
Yea it sucks that they're doing that again.
Does anybody know what "struck work" actually entails?
I see it everywhere in terms of what actors can't talk about publicly but not sure exactly what that means. There's the obvious stuff that's currently in production or airing, but how far back does that extend? Can a TNG actor talk about TNG or because that's owned by Paramount is it all off limits, even back to Shatner talking about TOS?

And does it include someone ELSE'S work?
The current guidance appears to be that SAG members are forbidden from discussing or promoting any property produced by struck studios, past or present. TOS, TNG, etc would all be covered by the policy. At a con, cast members can't participate in any panels (unless somehow the panel has nothing to do with any show), or even talk to fans about their roles. They can only sign things that fans bring them, and take photos.

Awesome, that clears it up regarding the studios. Thank you for the link!
