It’s reality shows all over again. (When it comes to TV anyway)
Remember the early 2000s sitcoms kinda went away because reality shows were the hot new thing and cheaper to produce?

Those people were scabs during the 2000s writer strike, though. This guy is talking about replacing labor with stolen labor.

The writers strike didn’t last a decade

The Sopranos ran from 1999-2007. The Wire was 2002-2008. Its always sunny in philadelphia started in 2005. Curb your enthusiasm started in 2000. Scrubs started 2001. So its not even just that two of the most critically acclaimed shows of all time were made in that time period, but some of the most groundbreaking and influential comedy shows also. If you think breaking bad was some sort of turning point for TV you missed a lot of history.
