Are you looking for new television shows to keep you entertained end of summer going into fall? Good luck! With the writer’s strike going on right now. Even shows we have anticipated since last year are at a standstill. It’s so sad because 2023 was off to such a strong start with the premiere of The Last of Us in January. From thrilling suspense dramas to hilarious comedies, the back half of 2023 was supposed to be awesome for shows. Let’s look at some of the most anticipated shows of 2023 that are being affected by the writer’s strike

The Boys Season 4 on Amazon Prime – Season 4 should have started at the end of 2023 but executive producer Eric Kripke has said on Twitter that The Boys season 4 would not be released until the WGA strike ended. This is definitely understandable and I respect the respect Eric and team are showing the writers.

Stranger Things Season 5 on Netflix – Season 5 will be the last season and fans can not wait for it. But we are going to have to. We were under the impression they were supposed to start filming in June of this year for a potential 2024 or even 2025 start. We are just assuming that things are going to be pushed even further back now. Season 4 part 2 was released in July of 2022.

Cobra Kai’s season 6 and final season, also on Netflix – was shut down the day the strike started. Co-creator Jon Huswitz, “Pencils down in the Cobra Kai writers room. No writers on set.” It seems to us that there will be absolutely no movement there until a deal is reached.

One of my favorite new shows is definitely The Last of Us on HBO Max –  Season 1 was released in January of 2023 and fans we so excited that it was going to be back for a second season but the second season isn’t even close to being done because of the strike.

 

 

From epic action-packed dramas to suspenseful thrillers, 2023 was promised to be a great year for television and streaming. Those are only a few of the most anticipated shows being affected by the writer’s strike. We can only cross our fingers and hope that they reach a deal soon or we will spend the entire fall and winter watching reality TV and reruns.

Here’s What You Missed On Aimee+Shawn This Week

Another week of Aimee+Shawn is in the books and this week is a special one – it’s back to school time! The kids are back in class, and back to listening every morning!

If you remember last year, Shawn’s son Colin was not a fan of going to Kindergarten. He was petrified of the change of routine and the mysterious new building he’d be going to every morning. Thankfully this year, Colin is in much better spirits heading towards first grade. Now Colin is giving the young Kindergarteners good advice as they enter school for the first time.

Meanwhile, Aimee brought a poem that was bringing the water works. It would have been easier to read if Shawn didn’t pipe in Sarah McLachlan during her reading.

Shawn has been looking around the house wondering where the money is going when it dawned on him: it’s the Goldfish crackers. He shares the one change he made that will be enough to pay for all of his streaming services all year.

Aimee had no idea that Hawaiian rolls weren’t only able to be baked but were suggested to be baked by the manufacturer. She’d never done so… are there any other instructions you’ve been avoiding reading all these years? Monopoly players, we are looking at you.

At Monster Jam over the weekend, Shawn and his family got up to let a man through to his seat… but he soon became enraged when he found out which seat he was headed to.

Plus, why Aimee’s head is always on a swivel just in case she’ll ever be needed to testify.

What’s going on next week on Aimee+Shawn?
