Carson Daly Crosses the Picket Line
It is a bold move for such a C-lister. “Last Call with Carson Daly†is set to return next week despite the WGA strike. The show will be the first late night gabfest to return with fresh episodes. While taping is scheduled, no guests have signed up to appear.
Technically speaking Carson is not a member of WGA, but the picketing writers are unhappy with his decision to return to air. To add salt to the wound he has hired non-Guild writers to provide the repartee. This doesn’t bode well for Daly.
“The Writers Guild of America, East joins our colleagues of the Writers Guild of America, West in expressing our profound disappointment with Carson Daly’s decision to return to work. We thank them and hope that Mr. Daly will reconsider his decision, including the soliciting of scab writers to provide material for his program.â€
His choice is said to be in support of his staff, but an email he sent appears to have other motives. (Thousands have already been laid off and fired due to the strike. No other programs are giving any hints of returning.) In the email to his peeps he lets them know of his master plan to make a complete ass of himself. Apparently random folks have felt sorry for him and offered up jokes which he plans to make a mockery of.
He is going to be eaten alive. I would hate to be in his shoes…and not just because of his manorexia.
