SitcomsOnline Digest: Actors Join the Writers on Strike; Fox Sets Premiere Date for Krapopolis

  Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! News is slow at this time of the year, but we have updates on SAG-AFTRA joining the writers in being on strike, Fox finally setting a premiere date for Krapopolis, and more. Let's get going!

HIGHLIGHTS FROM SITCOMSONLINE.COM AND AROUND THE WEB

  • We hope you weren't looking forward to the fall season, because it's not looking like we'll have much of one now that SAG-AFTRA has joined the writers in being on strike. (Vox)
  • Rainn Wilson has revealed that he wasn't particularly happy when he was on The Office, because he was just waiting for that big movie deal that he never got (unlike some of his co-stars). (CNN)
  • A premiere date has finally been set for Krapopolis, which we assume that they had to finally put it on because episodes of the show are ready when a lot of scripted stuff for the fall is not. (Deadline)
  • Great American Family has set a premiere date for their next Christmas movie, which will star Lori Loughlin. (Deadline)
  • It seems that running for political office is starting to become a trend for TV actors lately, and now Hill Harper is running for a US Senate seat in Michigan. (Deadline)
  • India has a new news anchor, but she isn't real. (Deadline)
  • The CW has announced their Fall 2023 premiere dates. (SitcomsOnline)

WEEKLY PLANNER (JULY 16 - JULY 22)

  • Catchy Comedy has a binge of Get Smart this weekend.
  • Freeform's animated comedy Praise Petey premieres July 21.
