This show was pathetic. His high end guests flaked on him (strike supporters, with actual principles?), that's how he wound up with the three snoozers he had.

The real casualty of the strike, and something seldom mentioned on this thread (intentionally?):

No New Rules!

Ha!

When the single best part of the show is missing, you have to chalk one up for labor. Bill's a funny guy, naturally, but show hosts don't just dump their ace routine. It's likely the writers did the heavy lifting on that segement, with Bill just touching up the final drafts.

New Rule: When a pivotal part of your show relies on writers, don't try and scab it when they're on strike.
