- SAG-AFTRA released a statement this morning stating talks have stalled with the AMPTP. It's disappointing to hear that the Actors' Strike has hit a little bump. I do hope they will eventually reach a good deal because actors along with all the others who bring stories to life: writers, directors, hair and makeup, production, etc. should be able to make a living doing their job. They shouldn't have to deal with receiving terribly low residuals (if they receive any at all) as well as the threat of A.I. being used to take away their jobs. I can understand why they would want to strike because they should get a better contract. The AMPTP already have deals with the Directors and Writers why are they stalling on the Actors?
- There's some really good news for us Star Trek: Prodigy fans. Back in June, Paramount Plus had cancelled and removed the animated series despite that it had been renewed for a second season. At the time, the company that created the show had announced that the second season was in post-production. And that they were trying to find a new channel or streaming service for it. And it appears they did because the show will now air on Netflix sometime later this year and the second season next year. I'm really glad this show was able to be saved, it's so good. And how the first season ended, I can't wait to see how the young crew will do now that they will be out there with the real Kathryn Janeway. And I want to see if Gwyn will accomplish her task and rejoin her friends. So, yes, I can't wait for this show to return.
