    There’s a lot of really good examples of this from shows that kept going during the writer’s strike in 2007. Heroes season 2 in particular felt like they were just winging it.

      Heroes did not continue during the writers strike. To accommodate the reduced episode order to allow the season to be completed before the strike, major rewrites were made very quickly and 2/3 of the season was pushed back a year.
