The writers strike is now impacting overall deals. Just days into the work stoppage, major TV studios have started sending out letters to writer/producers under overall agreements, telling them tha…
The language in the overall deal suspension letters varies slightly — from “suspended engagement” to “suspended services” as all notify showrunners that the compensation they receive under their term deals have been suspended effective May 2 when WGA went on strike following the expiration of the guild’s contract with the studios as the two sides could not reach a new agreement.
Similarly, CBS Studios did not suspend term deals for those writers/producers who had received the other letter advising them to continue non-writing producer duties, sources said. All letters end with similar language about the Producer reserving all rights and remedies/not waiving any rights “as a matter of law or equity”/”at law or in equity.” The one from CBS Studios specifies those reserved rights, “including, without limitation, all rights with respect to termination of the Agreement.”
Suspending deals is considered standard practice during a strike; it is the potential termination that many are fearing. Evoking the infamous force majeure clause, the major studios cut dozens of overall and other producing deals in January 2008, about two months into the 2007-08 writers strike, along with significant portions of their development slates.
