Full list of writers strike affected shows

The writers' strike will take an immediate toll on television viewers' favorite programs, dealing a setback to shows that are written day-to-day -- such as Jon Stewart's "The Daily Show" -- as well as scripted programming already underway or about to go into production.

Soap operas are expected to be the first to disappear since many can write only one month ahead and most have episodes to last them only until the end of the year. But during the 1988 strike, producers wrote in place of striking writers, and soaps stayed on the air.

Prime-time scripted series have episodes through mid-January or early February, depending on how many reruns they space out in the next few months. Unscripted shows -- such as "Survivor," "The Amazing Race," and, when it returns in January, "American Idol" -- would continue uninterrupted.

Here's a look at where many shows stand:

Soaps
ABC - Says its soaps are written "well into the new year," however, and that they will "continue to produce original programming with no repeats and without interruption."
CBS - Expected to continue through February.
NBC ("Days of Our Lives") - Expected to continue through January.

Syndicated Shows

"Ellen"- Decided not to tape her show Monday in support of the striking writers. Some writers on her show are guild members. Monday's and Tuesday's shows were taped last week, a spokesman said. DeGeneres has yet to decide whether to go ahead with further shows this week.

Late Night
"Colbert Report,"
"The Daily Show" and
"Saturday Night Live"
"The Tonight Show" and
"The Conan O'Brien Show" - Will go into repeats immediately.
"Jimmy Kimmel Live" - Staffed with WGA writers, so it would probably go to repeats. But Kimmel could also decide to wing it and do the show himself.

ABC
