The Primetime Emmy Awards - television's top honor - have been postponed for the first time in more than two decades as strikes by Hollywood writers and actors continue, Variety reported.
The Emmy Awards typically happen in September for its proximity to the major networks kicking off what usually is the new TV season.The writers' strike of more than 11,000 members came after their union and the Alliance of Motion Pictures and Television Producers, which is negotiating on behalf of studio management, could not come to an agreement on issues including staffing and duration of employment on shows.
Many writers are unable to support themselves with writing alone and have been suffering from reduced job opportunities and the loss of some sources of income due to an industry shift from traditional broadcast and cable programming to streaming services. The last writers' strike started in November 2007 stretched 100 days into February of 2008.
But they're unlikely to get meaningful residuals, if any at all, when they create original content for streaming services as contracts stand today. The issues in the actors' strike included desires for increased pay, as well as progress on residuals, particularly on streaming services.
