Great news, fellow TV fans! The 3-month old writer's strike is expected to reach a conclusion as early as this Tuesday, bringing thousands of out-of-work writers, actors, producers, and behind-the-scenes workers back to the grind. Here is a handy dandy guide to when your favorite shows are expected to return, courtesy of TV Guide's Mike Ausiello:
After the WGA Strike: When Will Your Favorite TV Shows Return?
I am most happy about my FAVORITE, the Office, which is expected to shoot 5-10 new episodes to finish out the season. YAY OFFICE THURSDAYS! Everyone, clap your hands say yeah.

When Will Your Favorite Shows Return??

The Hills with James Franco and Mila Kunis
There are a lot of things I love that I find hard to defend. Britney, glitter (the shiny stuff, not the Mariah Carey movie), cheesy plain-bad romantic comedies, the Hills. Seriously, these girls do nothing but go out to Les Deux every other night and have 'fake' drama, but there's something about the show that keeps me glued to the TV every Monday night. And any other night MTV chooses to repeat it, which I might add, is a lot. This clip from FunnyorDie.com aptly summarizes the show. It's pretty hilarious, and it's exactly what every other scene on the Hills is like- awkward pauses, hair twirling, girls being annoying girls, guys being douche bag guys, the absolute mundane-ness of life covered in the glitz of the LA scene. In other words, I LOVE it. Haha.

Update on the WGA Strike
The WGA swiftly rejected the "New Economic Partnership" proposed by the AMPTP yesterday, putting the strike back to square one again. Life in Boxes has been following the strike pretty carefully, as we are big TV fans and just want out favorite pastime to be restored. I mean come on, without the Office being on we were forced to watch the plain humiliating Knicks game last night.

What's happening to your favorite TV shows?
When is your favorite TV show gone?? Here is a handy dandy guide of how many new episodes of your favorite shows are left. Read it and weep.
The good news is that the WGA and the AMPTP are set to resume talks on Monday, November 26, which is a lot sooner than the rumored January '08 date. Hopefully both sides can come to some sort of an agreement, for the sake of the thousands of people out of work right now, as well as for TV fans.
The bad news is that more likely than not, most of our favorite TV shows will be affected come 1st quarter 08. Already we have no more new episodes of the Office (damn you NBC for making the producers work so hard to crank out 4 1-hour episodes at the beginning of the season!!), and the rest of the shows are dwindling down. Fast. No matter how early they reach an agreement, there will probably be a period of reruns as everyone gets back into the groove of things of producing new episodes. Let's keep our fingers crossed though!

For the Love of TV
I miss Conan O'Brien. This WGA strike needs to end.
Speaking of the WGA strike, Steve Carell informed NBC he is unable to report to work because he is suffering from “enlarged balls."
Here's to a speedy recovery from that .. er, infliction!
