SAG Strike Delayed by 2 Weeks

Today I came across some "Breaking News" on TVguide.com that says the actors strike vote is being delayed by 2 weeks.

SAG president Alan Rosenberg had agreed to delay the vote to "address the unfortunate division and restore consensus. This will provide us with more time to conduct member education and outreach on the referendum before the balloting."

So what does all of that mean? It means that there's too many actors that DON'T want to strike (at least not right now) so SAG is going to hold a meeting to try to get everyone on the same page for a "Yes" vote.

What does this mean for BB11 in Winter? Well, there's a couple of things that don't look so good for us BB fans. (1) The vote will most likely be announced in early February (when BB would have to start), so it might be too late to do a BB11 in Winter on such short notice..unless CBS is fully prepared already! (2) SAG needs 75% of its members to vote "Yes" to strike and it looks like they might have a little bit of trouble getting that many "Yes" votes.

But don't fret, BB fans, there's still hope!!!!

As of December 24th, 2008, Big Brother 11 is *STILL* scheduled as a "Midseason" Fall show, which would be in February.




As always, I will keep ya'll updated on the latest in Big Brother news and gossip!!

SAG: To strike or not to strike?

Okay, so if you've been keeping up (or trying to) with if SAG will be striking or not, you might be a little confused. So, here's an update:

As of today December 16th, 2008, this is what is going on...

SAG Could Strike by January 24, 2009

The Screen Actors Guild (SAG) says it will be sending out strike authorization ballots to its 120,000 members beginning January 2, 2009. Members will have until midnight January 23 to get their vote counted.

If 75 percent of the membership vote YES for a strike it could go into effect as early as January 24.

Guild President Alan Rosenberg said in a press statement on Wednesday that the future of professional actors is at stake and could hinge on the vote."

There you have it, ladies and gents! The SAG will vote to either strike or not strike between Jan. 2nd and Jan. 23rd. If they DO strike, it could take effect immediately.

So what does the SAG strike mean for Big Brother 11? It means that shows that will run out of episodes will temporarily go bye-bye until the strike is over, thus making room for some "filler" shows, such as BB11!! :-D

Don't count out the possibility of another Big Brother Winter Edition just yet, kids! ;-)

As always, I'll keep ya'll posted!

Enjoy!!

Actors possibly going on strike...Big Brother 11 Winter Edition?

Here's another great piece of info for you die-hard Big Brother fans: actors might be going on strike in a few weeks!! What does that have to do with BB11? Well, that would mean that shows would be delayed in production for a while & in return, thrusting reality tv shows to take over (hello, Big Brother 11!)

Here are 3 articles on the possible actors strike:

(1) SAG to Hold Strike Vote as Talks Collapse
(2) SAG to seek strike authorization
(3) SAG, AMPTP talks fail: Is an actors strike coming?

BB11 is *still* scheduled for mid-season (most likely as a "just in case" thing), but it's looking more & more like BB11 this winter might be happening!!!

I will keep ya'll updated as soon as I hear anything more..good or bad!

According to the BB11 application...

Well BB fans, still no 100% confirmation on if there will be a Winter Edition of Big Brother again or not. While Allison Grodner has said "next summer" BB11 will air, the application still says...



Plus interviews for BB11 in different cities are scheduled to start soon (before January).

According to TVguide.com, BB11 is still listed as a Fall "mid-season" show (as of Sept. 25th).

So who knows at this point. As always, I will post right here once I find out more info!! :-D

Stay tuned...

BB11 to start in Summer 2009?

The new word on the street is that BB11 will start in the Summer of 2009, and not in Feb. 2009 as previously rumored.

While TVguide.com is still showing Big Brother 11 as a "Mid Season" Fall show, Gretchen Massey of Housecalls on CBS.com released this statement via mass email on Sept. 19th, 2008:

"Overall, a nice ending to a great season. And best of all, it was announced that there absolutely will be a BB11 next summer, so we have that to look forward to."

There's no question that Big Brother was (of course) picked up for another season, but WHEN we will see it is a different question. I think if there's another writers strike this Fall/Winter, then you can pretty much count on BB11 starting in Feb. If not, then it'll probably back in its Summer time slot.

I'll keep ya'll posted!

Stay tuned...
