Well we just got the writer's strike over with and now rublings of this mixed in with some of the spoilers. Anyone know what these mean??
SAG---apparently set to walk out in June (includes prime time and film as well:
(Sabastian Roche--Jerry) and (Bradford Anderson--Spinelli) hold SAG cards whatever that means
AFTRA---what the heck does this mean???
WGA--I am pretty sure that is Writers Guild of America
Set tours have been banned. One bad apple spoilers it for the rest, it seems....
Anyways, anyone witth any insight and can explain these things to me, would be very much appreciated!

Sag is the Screen Actors Guild and AFTRA is the television and film and radio guild I think. Good old unions.

Thanks so ,uch, Jill. That helps alot. Yep good old unions. I hope they don't strike. Well, not before May sweeps anyways. I heard about some date in June tentatively. Hopefully it will be resolved quickly!

Oh for crying out loud. Seriously? I am so done with tv and movies if this happens. The writers strike was one thing, but the actors now too? I live 5 minutes from Hollywood, and I can tell you this much, if SAG goes on strike, well, tv and film will have gone to hell, as 90 percent of all actors and even extras hold SAG membership.
Oh boy, please do not say here we go again......
