Variety reports that the Writer’s Guild of America strike has officially come to an end, with more than 90 percent of members voting to end it:
After announcing the vote tally, Verrone said WGA members were free to go back to work “immediately,” and he noted that writers for the Feb. 24 Oscar ceremony were believed to be doing just that on Tuesday night. Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences prexy Sid Ganis and Oscarcast exec producer Gil Cates will hold a news conference Thursday morning to discuss their plans for the show now that the cloud of picket lines and stars staying home has lifted.

And they go back to work with the sort of results you’d expect from an ineffective strike.
But thank God we’ll have a few more episodes of LOST this year.
