These guys, Jon and Steve are exceptional.....
Most other shows really need their writers, they will be one of the few things that cannot be replaced, a plot. Soon we will be watching an animated Cronkite on the evening news again, John Wayne will be in new films and Raquel Welch will be young - who needs actors ... but writers....
