WHAT KIND OF CLOTHES DO I SUPPOSE WOULD BE WORN BY A MAN WITH A MOLE ON HIS NOSE? Our WGA StrikeWatch continues with a video sent along by one of our readers, reminding us how Moonlighting coped with the 1988 WGA Strike.

Those with long memories may recall that the show never really recovered from the layover and had to ditch a planned "3-D Season Finale" promotion in the process, with twenty million 3-D glasses getting remarketed for the 1989 Super Bowl halftime show starring "Elvis Presto".

In other news, Lisa de Moraes reports that the late night shows may return in a week or two with interview-heavy episodes, because while the writers have a strike fund, production assistants and other staffers don't get paid when the shows aren't being produced.
