Members DramatistDreamer Posted September 26, 2023 Members Share Posted September 26, 2023 No problem. You’re welcome. Who’s gonna show up? I’d think that viewers would be pretty disappointed if there are no actors there. While SAG-AFTRA is on strike, will Eileen Davidson show? She’s a fairly ardent supporter of SAG-AFTRA. And Fran Drescher seems to be running a pretty tight ship. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted September 26, 2023 Members Share Posted September 26, 2023 The daytime people should be allowed to receive honors for work they've done given they are NOT on strike. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ranger1rg Posted September 26, 2023 Members Share Posted September 26, 2023 I doubt very much that ANY awards show is going through while the actors are on strike. It's just not going to happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted September 26, 2023 Members Share Posted September 26, 2023 People were mad at the soap actors for working even though they were on a different contract, plus shows with completed scripts were picketed.....could u imagine what the union would say if the Daytime Emmy's attempted to happen? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted September 27, 2023 Members Share Posted September 27, 2023 Seems like a pretty decent deal. Some of these protections for junior writers especially cannot be downplayed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted September 27, 2023 Members Share Posted September 27, 2023 After how the WGA was screwed in the 1985 writer strike, it makes sense they stuck to their guns on this one. The reason for the 1985 strike was due to compensation for home video sales.. and the WGA agreed to a low ball deal because it was 'untested market'. And with streaming being so popular and the go to for people now, it was harder for the Production companies to pull the 'untested' argument. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
