Writers' Strike May Be Over By Wednesday

Well, it looks like Saturday's meeting went well and the deal with the AMPTP was tentatively approved. There's a vote by the WGA membership on Tuesday and if the deal is approved by that, the writers could be back to work by Wednesday. Source: United Hollywood and Deadline Hollywood Daily.

So, what's going on with the shows now that the strike is probably over? Here's the list over at TV Guide and Watch with Kristin.

Summary for my shows:
- Chuck: no new shows until fall (does this mean a season 2 or just a two part season 1?)
- Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles: Five pre-strike episodes remain. Future beyond that TBD.
- NCIS: Expected to shoot 5 to 7 new episodes, only three of which may air this season.
- Bones: Four pre-strike episodes left. Unclear whether additional episodes will be produced for this season.
- House: Expected to shoot 4 to 6 new episodes to air in April/May.
- Supernatural: Two pre-strike episodes remain. Expected to shoot 3 to 5 additional episodes to air in April/May.
- Moonlight: No new episodes expected until fall (Does this mean a second season? No clue.) Edit: According to Variety more episodes of Moonlight are expected to be produced this season which seems to bode well for a second season.
- Numb3rs: Expected to shoot 5 to 7 new episodes, only three of which may air this season.

We may also start hearing about series renewals or terminations in the very near future. I really hope that the shows listed above get picked up. *crosses fingers*
