Summary

It’s "strike two" for Hollywood! For the first time in over 60 years, actors and writers are both hitting the picket lines at the same time. SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher - aka "The Nanny" - gave a passionate speech yesterday announcing that members of the actors union are going on strike after failing to reach an agreement with the Alliance of Motion Pictures and Television Producers - aka the studios. Looks like a total Hollywood shutdown for now, with no happy ending in sight!
