Actors on the SAG-AFTRA Picket Line Express Cautious Optimism Ahead of Renewed Negotiation

With SAG-AFTRA and the AMPTP set to start negotiating on a new contract on Monday, October 2—days after the WGA secured their new three-year deal—the picket line at Warner Bros. was overflowing with supporters on Friday, September 29.
“It finally feels like we’re in the home stretch,” Jeri Ryan (STAR TREK: PICARD/VOYAGER) tells Give Me My Remote. “I think the studios finally get they don’t have a choice. They have to make this work; they have to. The greed is not working for them. It’s not working for us. It’s not working for anyone. And I think they finally had their little ‘come to Jesus’ moment, and they realize that reality has to sink in and you’ve got to make a deal.”

THE BOYS franchise expands today with its new series GEN V. But the series comes at a strange time in the industry—the WGA strike just ended, and the actors’ guild will begin their negotiations with the AMPTP on October 2.
“Look, it’s a little scary,” THE BOYS creator (and GEN V executive producer) Eric Kripke told Give Me My Remote in August, before the WGA strike ended. “We can’t promote it, and we want to—the WGA rules are a little more lax than SAG. But no one really cares much as much what the writers have to say.”

LEGO MASTERS returns on Thursday, September 28, with its biggest season ever, as teams of two try to outlast the other groups to win $100,000 and the title LEGO Masters.
“We always try to think of each season and how it could possibly top the last,” Brickmaster Jamie Berard tells Give Me My Remote in the video below. “But I think the builders this season have been watching and doing their homework on the previous seasons…I would say this season is really a standout—that there are particularly some challenges that have outcomes or ambitions like we’ve never seen before on any LEGO MASTERS.”

Comments Off on Writers Share the Importance of Continuing to Support SAG-AFTRA Post-WGA Strike
The Fox picket line was as energetic as ever on Tuesday, September 26, with writers and actors walking the line with STAR WARS-themed signs, shirts, and elaborate costumes (in honor of a long-planned STAR WARS day)…and a potential end to the WGA strike around the corner.
After more than 140 days on strike, the writers guild and the AMPTP came to a tentative agreement for a new contract on Sunday, September 24. (It was officially approved by the board hours after this picket, with them voting to end the strike as of 12:01 AM PT on Wednesday, September 27.) The guilds didn’t picket on Monday—due to Yom Kippur—making the Tuesday event the first time they were able to (officially) reunite to show their united front amid forward movement for the WGA.
