Daily Show and The Colbert Report to be suspended

VeteranNoob writes: A looming strike by the Writers Guild of America might jeopardize new "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" and "The Colbert Report" episodes . The shows require fresh material, a dependency that is apparently lacking in other prime-time offerings. While the writers are on strike, we can expect reruns of the two Comedy Central programs. This announcement comes at a critical time when the shows' political outlooks could influence the 2008 elections. Nevertheless, Viacom has plenty of content to keep us entertained and drooling.

We have a good pipeline of movies that are already produced or are in production which will not be affected.
