Hooray. The writer's strike is over and all is well in the TV world. Except history may repeat itself when the Screen Actor's Guild reaches the end of its current contracts with the TV and movie studios. A group of superstars (George Clooney, Tom Hanks, Meryl Streep, Robert De Niro) have come out recently urging SAG and the studios to begin early negotiations for contract renewal. This one is just getting started, but we will be following it here at WillametteLive.com
