Say it ain't so...

Early Victim of Strike: ‘Office’ Originals End Next Week

This is how much I keep up with the news, I didn't even know that there was a writer's strike.

I think that when they come back, the first episode should include Dunder-Mifflin employees going on strike and make it the episode some sort of satire about the writer's strike.

If NBC is listening, I can start writing scripts in the meantime.

What's the word for that... a carpetbagger? No, maybe I would be considered a scab.

Anyway, I think it would be a bad idea. First, half the actors are also writers, which would leave me with a episode where half the Dunder-Mifflin employees would have to be out sick for the day. I guess I could come up with something though.

Maybe Phylis and Angela get into an argument about something. Let's say Angela finds out that Phylis and Bob Vance (Vance Refrigeration)are getting a dog, which leads to Angela finding out that Phylis hates cats (and those pictures of babies dressed up in costumes). This leads to the heated argument, which leads to the planning of a fight in the warehouse at lunch time. (I know this is similar to the scene where Dwight and Michael fight at the Karate dojo, but people like violence.)

The fight scene would include a ring made out of boxes of paper. Stanley would be the referee. There would be special appearances by: Randy Couture as a friend of Bob Vance, who comes in to coach Phylis, Halle Berry, who comes to let Angela borrow her Catwoman suit for the fight, and Micheal Vick because he can't stay away from a good fight.

Like I said, me writing scripts would be a bad idea. So, can the WGA and the TV big-wigs work this thing out, please.
