It’s official, late night talk show host and friend to the working man, Dave Letterman, has reached an agreement with the writer’s guild. As a member of the WGA himself and the owner and producer of his own show he was able to negotiate an independent contract with the WGA. In addition, Conan O’Brien and Jay Leno are also expected to return to television this January 2…but without a writing staff. Good luck to all three in ‘08!

Conan and Jay are going to do the show without a writing staff? Are you kidding me, that’s like rowing without a paddle, basting without a turkey, jerking without a hand. And lets remember that a wookie on Endor does NOT make sense!! But hats off to Dave for not only paying his writing staff’s salary for months, but for reaching an agreement with them as well.

David Letterman always keeps his peeps happy

Finally, a positive story to report. Late night TV legend David Letterman announced to his staff yesterday that he will be taking money out of his own pockets to pay all of their salaries till the end of the year, while this awful writers’ strike rages on. This is a defiant move on Dave’s part as many of the networks have already threatened to fire all the staffs of the talk shows. It’s a real ‘Up-yours’ to the networks who are a acting like a hound of teenage bullies. Way to go Dave.

You’ve got to be kidding me, I always knew Dave was my favorite TV show host, I just never knew why until now. Dave’s got a pair of brass ones. And that’s what it takes to combat these big-shot executives and producers who think it’s their birth-right to walk all over everyone else. Keep fighting the good fight, Dave.
