Boy, I wouldn't want to solve this dilemma for Jay Leno: If he continues supporting the Hollywood writers' strike [1] by staying away from The Tonight Show, his whole crew will be laid off [2]. But if he comes back to work, he has to cross picket lines. Other late-night hosts are in similar jams this week, as their shows enter a second week of repeats and the networks start to get antsy.
There may be a third option: NBC is pondering having guest hosts come in [3], saving the jobs of the crew. But it would put the substitute hosts in the awkward position of crossing picket lines. What do you think should happen?
