Hollywood writers are striking to make sure they get much needed and much deserved payments for new media content. Striking means they have to picket and carry signs. The Daily Newsreports that actors and writers picketing together presents an opportunity for singles. There was even an impromptu event organized called "Singles' Strike."
"I'm looking for a low-maintenance female who doesn't enjoy the finer things in life," he joked Thursday outside the Fox studio gate in Century City.
The writer for NBC's "My Name is Earl" was joined by about 50 other people for the impromptu event dubbed "Singles' Strike."
Charles Heit, a writer for the Sci Fi Channel's "Painkiller Jane," said he was dreading picket duty until he met Cara Delizia, a petite actress. Then it didn't seem so bad.
The two planned to go to dinner and a movie after putting down their picket signs.
"It's all about solidarity, right?" Delizia said.
If this strike is a long one perhaps there will be a few marriages that result from these picket line meetups.
