PROGRAMMING NOTE: If you are looking online for some of your favorite prime-time shows airing on WKRN, you could soon see re-runs. The Writers Guild of America agreement expired October 31, 2007 and covered about 12,000 members of both West and East chapters.
Writers, who say the future of television distribution will be online, are on strike seeking an agreement that includes a fair share of revenue from online distribution of their work. WKRN viewers who miss on-air prime time shows like Desperate Housewives or Grey’s Anatomy can now watch entire episodes on demand with limited interuption at WKRN.com and WKRNNewsExtra.com (player buttons on the right sidebar).
Here is how the break down looks for some ABC shows:
- Desperate Housewives – 4 episodes (through first of December)
- Grey’s Anatomy – 5 episodes
- Dirty Sexy Money and Brothers and Sisters – at least 11 episodes
