, Netflix and hundreds of production companies, has said it is committed to reaching a fair agreement.If a strike is called, late-night shows such as "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon," "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" and "Saturday Night Live," which use teams of writers to craft topical jokes, are expected to immediately stop production.
Soap operas and other daytime shows such as "The View" will likely be disrupted. News programs would not be interrupted because those writers are members of a different union. Netflix may be insulated from any immediate impact because of its global focus and access to far-flung production facilities outside of the U.S.
The strike cost the state an estimated $2.1 billion and tipped its already fragile economy into a recession, according to the Milken Institute think tank.
