Affect on Writers Strike

In November 2007 the WGA (Writers Guild America) went on strike. However, the season was originally going to have 23 episodes but due to the strike only 17 episodes were finished after Treehouse of Horror XVIII aired which was the last episode before the strike. Luckily, episodes will still have post-production as FOX will edit the scripts after production is finished. For the 20'th season however, it is said that if the strike doesn't end by March the 20'th season will either start in early November 2008 with a Treehouse of Horror episode.
