Writers Guild of America Strike
From Super-wiki

The main issues in dispute concerned payment (“residuals”) to writers arising from the distribution of film and TV in new media areas including DVD and the Internet. Playbill
As the strike began Supernatural has 10-12 episodes completed; roughly five scripts that are ready to shoot. La Times
