Thanks for the summing up, Chris.

Auteur writers have the option of writing each episode solo. These would be your Shonda Rhimes, Aaron Sorkin, Mike White types.
I was particularly interested in this outcome and this is how it should be. Taylor Sheridan is another writer in this group who was vocal about this.

I don't know the specific ins and outs but I hope it's as good as it reads percentage wise

Why the powers that be had to wait so long to buckle to the reasonable and fair demands I don't know, but it's that 'power' word I suppose, and now the power is where it belongs.

What about the actors?
Negotiations continue I read, and they're optimistic.

The SAG-AFTRA strike is finally over as well. The full deal won't be published until the SAG National Board reviews it. I'm not sure if it will affect us much, but still exciting.

What they have told us:

a) Huge AI protections
b) "above-pattern" minimum increases
c) streaming participation bonuses (Unrealistic, you say, Mr. Iger?)
d) P&H caps
e) increases for background actors
f) diverse community protections

Sounds like a sweet deal so far. I don't know how many 90 pages this one will be.
