Letterman Shows Them How It's Done

David Letterman will be returning next week with his writer's. His production company was able to negotiate with the union.

The Writers Guild of America hailed the accord with Letterman's production company, WorldWide Pants Inc., as a sign of the union's readiness to negotiate a deal with major film and TV studios to settle Hollywood's worst labor crisis in 20 years.

For now, the most certain outcome of Letterman's deal is it paves the way for his "Late Show," and "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson," also owned by WorldWide Pants, to resume CBS broadcasts of fresh episodes with their writing staffs intact starting on Wednesday.
