Let's change things up a little .. here's some fic. (x-posted to fakenews_fanfic.)
Strike update/link roundup to follow.
Title: Improv 101
Rating: PG, for cursing and blatant fanservice
Pairing: Jon/Stephen, close friendship??
Length: ~2700
Summary: The strike is on, but Jon still has to work.
Beta: lone_hobbit is AWESOME. So is ![[info]](https://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) melannen. Without their input, this would suck a lot more than it does. (Any remaining suckage is purely my own.) (smilesawakeyou gets honorable mention for contributing squee. <------ (yes, that's an endorsement, folks! *g*))
Author's Note: For everyone desperate for a fix of Jon and Stephen's shows ... here's an entire Daily Show episode that could have been!

The strike is still on, obviously.
First, watch this video.
Instead of linking to every single article, here are the blogs and other news sources you should follow if you're interested:
- Deadline Hollywood Daily
- LA Time Strike Blog
- Variety Strike Blog
- United Hollywood Strike Blog
- WGA's YouTube channel
- NoFactZone
- wga_supporters @ LJ
To help out:
- fans4writers.com - currently endorsed by most of the TDS/TCR online communities, and I'm gonna go out on a limb here and add "including this one"
- addresses and phone numbers of the networks: one, two, three (Remember, TDS and TCR are owned by Viacom)
- Also: don't watch the reruns that are being shown in Jon and Stephen's timeslots, and don't watch streaming video at thedailyshow.com. I know. It hurts.
Else:
- an op-ed by Steve Bodow, TDS writer
- Video by Rob Kutner, another TDS writer
- Comedy Central's plan for the timeslots (I know it sounds cool - but please, don't watch. I or another fan can hook you up with non-revenue-generating clips if you wantneed some; just ask.)
- Ed Helms, Eric Drysdale (Bobby), and Steve Carell
And now for something completely of the shiny:
- Stephen Colbert at the Glamour Awards! Video and pictures! |
