Writers Go On Strike!

Writers Go On Strike!

Thousands of Hollywood writers have gone on strike, calling for increased pay and structural changes to the business model in the streaming era. The Writers Guild of America (WGA) argues that the current system has made it increasingly difficult for its members to make a living. The main sticking points between the guild and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers include union proposals that would require companies to staff television shows with a certain number of writers for a specific period, whether needed or not. This is the first time in more than 15 years that writers have gone on strike. -------------------- *Check Out All Our Podcasts!* Geek Freaks Podcast: https://linktr.ee/GeekFreaks Disney Moms Gone Wrong: https://linktr.ee/disneymomsgonewrong Challenge Accepted: https://linktr.ee/challengeacceptedgf Headlines: https://tinyurl.com/2p8bvu6d Level Up!: https://linktr.ee/PushingButtonsPodcast TrekFreaks: https://linktr.ee/TrekFreaks Geek Freaks Interviews: https://linktr.ee/GeekFreaksInterviews Outlast Podcast: https://linktr.ee/OutlastPodcast Round Three: https://linktr.ee/RoundThree From The Pages: https://www.patreon.com/GeekFreakspodcast -------------------- *Hang Out With Us!* Discord: https://discord.gg/6Jrvyb2 Twitter: twitter.com/geekfreakspod Facebook: facebook.com/groups/227307812330853/ Instagram: instagram.com/geekfreakspodcast E-mail: thegeekfreakspodcast@gmail.com Twitch: twitch.tv/geekfreakspodcast Site: geekfreakspodcast.com --------------------- *Support Us!* Patreon: https://patreon.com/GeekFreakspodcast Store: redbubble.com/people/GeekFreaks

Always Sunny, IDW Struggles, and Star Wars Jedi Survivor

Always Sunny, IDW Struggles, and Star Wars Jedi Survivor

IDW Publishing, one of the largest comic book companies in the US, is undergoing changes in leadership roles and cutting costs by eliminating over a third of its workforce due to a decline in comic book revenues, especially after the end of Locke and Key at Netflix. The company aims to adapt more of its comic book properties into television and film projects but is struggling with that approach. On the other hand, "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" will launch its 16th season on Wednesday, June 7, on FXX and Hulu. Meanwhile, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, a third-person galaxy-spanning action-adventure game, is set to continue Cal Kestis's story five years after the events of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order.

What is Star Trek: Legacy?

What is Star Trek: Legacy?

Terry Matalas proposed the idea of a new series called Star Trek: Legacy, which could feature legacy characters like Worf, Will Riker, Deanna Troi, Seven of Nine, and Raffi. Even Sir Patrick Stewart has expressed interest in returning, although he may not be the central focus of the show. Fans and critics are excited about the potential return to a more classic The Next Generation adventure, especially after the success of Star Trek: Picard. The show could explore a wide open timeline and bring back characters from Deep Space Nine and Voyager. #StarTrek #TheNextGeneration #Legacy #Picard #PatrickStewart #Worf #Riker #DeannaTroi #SevenofNine #Raffi #DeepSpaceNine #Voyager #scifi #tvseries #25thCentury
