With the WGA writers strike in full swing, we’re sure that some families are going hungry. And the subsequent complete staff layoffs are a miserable by-product of corporate greed. But the biggest losers? Those without health insurance anything to watch on their 50-inch flatscreen televisions…those who could hear a pin drop over the silence of their surround sound. Here’s a rundown of how many of our favourite shows are left (along with several that are dead in the water):

Zero Episodes Left
Heroes
The Family Guy
The Office

1 Episode LeftChuck
Pushing Daisies

3 Episodes Left
CSI
House
Journeyman

4 Episodes Left
30 Rock

7 Episodes Left
Boston Legal

10 Episodes Remain
Battlestar Galactica (SUHWEET!). Episode 11 was planned to be a Ronald D. Moore- directed pile of awesome (NOOOO!).

Unlimited Episodes Left
Dancing With The Stars – TACKY, they are continuing without writers. Because of BBC connection maybe?

    The other night I saw an episode of the Letterman Show which had Tom Cruise promoting his new film “Mission Impossible III” – WTF!!!

    I think that is stretching it a bit digging that far back into the archives to fill in.

    I love the Office, I confess. But I don’t even watch it on 10 because they treat it so poorly.

    But you know what? This article so unfunny, because speaking of Ten, if they got their arse out of the ground and made some quality re-runable Australian TV then they wouldn’t have the problem of RUNNING OUT OF THINGS TO SHOW. Stop making the s*** like Neighbours, Biggest Loser and Idol and make some proper drama. Or, this could be a wonderful opportunity to give what they have done a second run. How about White Collar Blue? Or that one from the late 90s about the redhead Coroner? Or maybe they could transcend into something really wonderful- a 24-hour Friends/Simpsons/Futurama network. Now that’s what dreams are made of.
