Staged in the middle of the Writers Guild strike, this became the only major televised awards ceremony of the season to proceed as normal. The WGA granted the SAG Awards a waiver in recognition of the guilds' solidarity, and the show went ahead with a full red carpet. No Country for Old Men won the film cast award. Daniel Day-Lewis (There Will Be Blood) and Julie Christie (Away from Her) took lead honors; Javier Bardem and Ruby Dee won supporting. The Sopranos and The Office won the TV ensembles. Charles Durning received the Life Achievement Award.

HISTORICAL NOTES

• The only major televised awards show to run in full during the 2007–08 WGA strike, a moment that permanently strengthened the ceremony's standing in the industry. 

• Debut of the two stunt ensemble categories, for film and television. The first awards of their kind from any major body.
