When I saw the renewals my first thought was that the DID learn from the
writer's strike. The Game is still writing shows for this year, so they
are
already busy. The Everybody hates Chris writers were already done for the
year, so an early renewal gets them writing on next season before the SAG
strike might come into play. In other words, get whatever headstart they
can and maybe they will get some episodes in the can during may/June
before
another shutdown? just a thought..
