During the last WGA strike, we lost seasons of The Office and Family Guy, a drop in quality on Friday Night Lights, and a key tweak in Breaking Bad.

, and the other hosts have announced that their shows will go on hiatus for the moment to see what happens with the strike. This is what happened in 2007, but after a few weeks, the late-night shows went back on the air without writers, as the hosts tried to fill the non-interview time however they could without the benefit of elaborate sketches or monologues. For Conan O’Brien the strike episodes were arguably the high point of his entire tenure at NBC.

e. It was nakedly unscripted silliness, relying entirely on the force of its host’s personality, and it was pretty great.The ’07 strike concluded in time for the 2008 Academy Awards, hosted that year by Jon Stewart, to go on more or less as planned. Other awards shows from that season weren’t as lucky. Most notably, the ’08 Golden Globes ceremony was replaced by a no-frills televised press conference where the names of the winners were announced.

Yes, the most popular show on TV during the strike was American Idol, a reality show. But it was the most popular show in the years before and after the strike, too. It was a juggernaut hit! Same with Dancing With the Stars, The Bachelor, etc. All predate the strike by years.The networks tried a LOT of things to win over viewers while the writers were on strike. Most of those were unscripted, and the vast majority of them vanished without a trace.
