That implies to me that they have much of the storyline already mapped out, if not already scripted.
I've heard that a bunch of shows are trying to get as many scripts as possible before the strike. I wonder how good these scripts will be if the writers know that doing extra work undermines their pending strike effort?

I was talking to a friend the other night about the writers strike, and we both thought about how much fun it would be for the writers to totally make small changes in shows that screw up the shows.
BattleStar Galactica could be messed up easily because some of the fanbase is on the level of Trekkies in that they pour over the show in agonizing details looking for plot holes. so how hard would it be to change the outlook on characters. IE Tigh stops drinking and takes up crack. Baltar see's the error of his ways and becomes a staunch anti-cylon republican. Suddenly there's a new villian of the week being played by special guest stars
Tigh - "Who's that Boss"
Adama - "Why thats 62, he's a maintenance Cylon with a silly whimsical edge, he's not here to kill us, he wants to start a Human Cylon clog dancing club. (James Brolin stops off of a shuttle with a garland of flowers around his neck and a drink in a coconut in his hand. He waves at Adama)
Better yet, in Bones, Doctor Brennan starts bed hopping and partying.
Or in Lost, they stumble through the bush and come out in the middle of Disney World (Written by guest writer M. Night Shamalamadingdong)
In two and a half men, Charlie realizes that he likes dating older woman, oh wait thats happened, I call sabotage.
You get the idea.
