So you'll just get beat next year. And yes the writers strike can very well effect both those shows.

Heroes origins is canceled :(.

Right now I'm watching Heroes and Pushing Daisies... I believe both shows will be further affected if the strike doesn't end soon.

Every show is basicly going to get affected if the strike continues for a while.

Right now, the majority of the shows that are effected are on network TV. The writers and producers are scheduled to begin talks again on the 26 of November. Cable shows are different than the networks; being that most seasons on cable are 12-15 episodes long, they usually film ALL of the shows in advance. Hopefully, the strike will be resolved in time for next season.

The majority of shows are having "season finales" VERY early. Pushing Daisies better not be cancelled all together because of this. I can deal with waiting a while to see a new episode of The Office or 30 Rock, but cancelling a show that never got a chance....yeah, I'm looking at you Freaks and Geeks.

Dexter will not be affected by the WGA strike, it will only have about 12 episodes. They will have written them all already. What really annoys me is that season 7 of Smallville may end up being only 15 episodes long. Damn the WGA.

Are they even airing Lost this season? I know that 24 has been cancelled for the season, I wonder if ABC is gonna do the same.

If it clears up anytime soon, they are going to run it either on schedule or a few weeks late. If not, mass riots will occur.

Depends on when the strike ends or if thy decide to air the episodes they have. 24 was postponed because of the nature of the show and they did not want to air the episodes only to have no clue as to when it will air again.

i haven't watched tv regularly for about 2 years now. i don't see what everyone's so upset about, those writers weren't all that great in the first place, obviously...THETRUEDOZAH

Just because you do not watch tv does not mean everyone does not watch it. Also people are going to get started being laying off. NBC layed off 102 people already for the office because they have stopped producition.
