TV Winners of the Writers’ Strike: Nerds!

Sorry, Ogre.

In 1988 many writers used the 22 weeks of the strike to work on novels and plays. Today the action is in writing for the web, videogames and graphic novels. (Variety.com)

As a junkie of all three mediums listed, I’m mixed on this idea—writers from Lost working on comics sounds good to me, but if the dudes who were staffed on Cavemen get anywhere near my Wii, I’m moving out of Mom’s basement for good.

Cavemen had writers? Like, real honest to goodness writers?

I had ridiculously low expectations for Cavemen, so I was pleasantly surprised at the first episode. I didn't watch any others, but it was nowhere near as bad as I expected.

Now Carpoolers, which aired right after Cavemen, may very well be the worst sitcom ever written.
