Why is the office, the simpsons, family guy, king of the hill, and american dad not showing new episodes?

why doesnt it show those new episodes? someone please please answer! thanks!

Every bodys writers are on strike. When the real brains behind the tv shows we watch demand more money everything stops. Each sitcom has between 4 and 12 writers on average. Hopefully it ends soon...baseball strikes Ok! Family Guy writers strike....SUCK!

I think the writers are on strike.

writers strike maybe

writers strike. many support it, few enjoy it. :]

i think cuz the seasons have ended for now

hold on let me call em ............................... ok the said they are workin on it

most shows go on Christmas hiatus, but I think the writers' strike might have something to do with it

It is because of the writers strike that is now going on in nbc. MOst of the shows are affected there, and it is the reason for the delay of many shows such as 24 that were supposed to be airing in Jan. Because of it, they have no scripts to film with.

Many shows go to reruns during the holiday season because they figure their audience is out shopping, watching holiday specials, at the movies or in general doing something else other than staying home and watching TV. I know it doesn't make a lot of sense but apparently they know what they're doing or think they do. There is a writers strike going on but the networks as a rule go to reruns during December.
Because of the writers strike you may see the reruns continue into January and beyond.
