The Too Much TV Roundup- 08/04/23

Well, the WGA didn’t end up going back to the table after all. So the strike is still on. i truly believe these studios refuse to budge on AI, and the guilds can’t afford to, because they understand once they allow it in the door contractually it will start putting people out of work.

I’m going to spoil the surprise and say that I’m far enough behind I didn’t even bother starting the final seasons of Ozark or Grace and Frankie yet.
