A few photos from the main Disney gate. There was a show of force of major showrunners in the TV biz with press. At least 100 to 140 people (second number including press) at the main gate today.
EVENING UPDATE: Looked through my photos again, and found one that caught Joss's sign in the corner!
ETA: Hi Whedonesque and Fuselage visitors! Sorry I didn't have more pictures of our fave genre heroes. I'll try to get more in the future.
Some additional comments: I would have loved to talk to Joss or Cuse/Lindelof or Josh Schwartz, but press was swarming all over these guys. I'd say the event was a success to put faces to shows. The signs were a great idea to not only identify a showrunner and their show, but also to really drive home how many shows were impacted. You can see a few in this picture, but believe me when I tell you there were at least 40 shows represented (I didn't do a full count) at this gate today.
4:30 PM UPDATE -- This video hit Youtube. It's Damon Lindelof and Marc Cherry at the Disney lot today talking about why they are striking.

Hey Shawna:
We heard on the line that the turnout at Disney was great and so was the press coverage. Glad to see some photos of it.
Not every picket line is glamorous but it's important that we keep our show of unity everywhere.
At one lonely outpost picket line in front of a service entrance at Universal we were visited today by William H. Macy and Felicity Huffman who walked the line with us for a while.

I fully plan on visiting one of the less high profile gates when I can take a day off and pick up a sign myself, maybe even bring some snacks from Costco.
It was exciting to be around so many geniusy writers in one place.
Beautiful shots. Well done indeed!
Rockin'.
I wanted to get over to Fox today but my stupid job made me do stupid work. Ridiculous.
Walk on, Shawna! I'm wearing red and pacing around my house, yelling chants at the dog...
xoxo
See you on the picket lines.
Chris
Awesome Photos! LOVED seeing them!
