Hey! BUT it is NEW YEAR now, how to enjoy the wonderful day? you love to try something new? interracialsinlgeonline.com you will be surprised there...

I am in fact thrilled that the golden globes won't be aired. Aren't the actors glorified enough without all that self-adulation to jam down our throats? how about a show on real-life heroes of the year instead?

The writers have every right to try and get more money, they do work hard for it...even if everything is recycled
Jeremy lesser of two evils~

I come from the UK as well as the oscars i think the biggest thing they will do is to get our BAFTA(British Academy of Film & Television Arts)scaled dowm in the same way as the Golden Globes because they will picket i,our writers support the WGA and there are a lot of Brit members of SAG they could threaten to boycott the ceremony this has a lot of international support, and if it is not settled by the summer other events like the Cannes film festival could be disrupted as well as the AFI tribute to Warren Beatty in June will they disrupt that one too,i wish that this could be settled soon.

gah! the writers get paid more then teachers, cops, firefighters and military/govt personnel could EVER hope to make in their jobs! those are the important ppl in the world. the writers make VERY good money, and have gotten VERY selfish and greedy. i mean, even Leno can't do his damn job anymore b/c of them! wtf!? cancel everything is you must, but the writers are only hurting themselves. and soon they will see that. the actors will only support them for so long. gotta keep up their lifestyles, you know. ;) plus, this will only bring in scabs who will bring a breath of fresh air to the industry. so go ahead, strike. but it won't stop the world from turning. and you'll end up "starving artists" once again. and we all know THAT ain't cute! so keep it up, or get over yourselves! accept the fact that the money you want AIN'T COMING IN YET! the studios are lying to EVERYONE if they say they are. but it keeps the stockholders happy. if you were smart, you'd relaize this. but i guess you're just too damned "creative" to think LOGICALLY! but whatever. to all my scabs: this is your chance! take it! XD

Writers do get paid extremely well for the scripts they write. The onlx hold out now is profits from dvd and internet sales which wont boost their overall salaries that much. Now come june we have an SAG strike to look forward to. I say we go on strike and stop watching tv and movies altogether. Lets read a book!

this is so ridiculous why are the golden globes canceled i think the writers are being selfish ok they want more money then they should get a different job.

I totally think that the writer's are asking for what they deserve. What happen to cherishing such great writers? One's like Shakespeare. THe authors get all the credit for writing books. Writing a script is much like a book, and they hardly get ANY recognition. I coudln't even tell you who wrote the 300, or great ones like that.
I think I should know that type of thing, and writers need more credit, and more money for EVEYRTHING that they do.

GO WRITERS!!

Agree with TH. They aren't being selfish, they are asking for their fair share. Strikes happen AFTER that have already tried negotiating and it failed, this one happened as the WAG contract was up. Many actors already said that they would not attend this ceremony, so it would be a pat on the back ceremony for the very people that are profiting while the writers get nothing (in regards to the contested issues). The writers HAVE acknowledged that they appreciate the actors' support by waiving the strike for the SAG awards.

globes got cancelled.

I agree with Nikki I think in this case the writer's are being extremely selfish especially since many Actors/talk show hosts have supported them not crossing the picket line, picketing with them, and the talk show hosts paying people's salaries, as a "thank you" they could have come to an agreement with the Golden Globes for ONE night and allow this show to go. It's unfortunate, I was supporting the writer's but now it's hard to do it, it's went on too long, make a compromise and an agreement.

What's the point in watching the Golden Globes if no celebrity will be there? Announcing the nominees, showing who won, have a little aftershow is better then nothing @ all!

What does this have to do with Britney Spears??

Why can't they just negiotiate this whole thing. This writers strike is getting of hand and no one is benefiting from it. If I was a writer I would like the money I was getting before than getting none now. They're only hurting themselves.

No, what's the point.
