Good for them (and for us). They managed to negotiate and come to satisfactory agreements, thus avoiding a strike (which would have started today). Below is an article Dave Metzger (TBL writer):

Great news for everyone. I'm glad that the writers were able to come to an agreement.

“It was great to wake up and find out there was an agreement,” said John Davis, the television and film producer who is working with Sony Pictures and 20th Century Fox on shows including NBC’s “The Blacklist” and “Timeless,” and ABC’s “Dr. Ken.
He said all of his shows would have been disrupted if the writers had gone on strike. A walkout would also have affected his upcoming movie “The Predator,” written and directed by Shane Black, who is known to rewrite material during filming.
“I’m really, really happy they didn’t strike,” Davis added.
Aly adds:
No reason why The Blacklist would have been disrupted unless they know they have a S5 since S4 is wrapped and done…..I think it’s just a matter of waiting for the official announcement from NBC which, if past history holds, should land a few days before upfronts on May 15.Source:alyblacklist

So now they have no reason not to give us a season 5!
