[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ll admit I had little patience for the actors’ strike until I read this article about how poorly the Orange is the New Black cast was compensated. These actors were working on a hit show that was critically acclaimed and made Netflix millions, and they still had to keep their day jobs to cover 5 am cab fare to the set. Insane. https://www.newyorker.com/culture/notes-on-hollywood/orange-is-the-new-black-signalled-the-rot-inside-the-streaming-economy[/quote] People should read this article. It's eye-opening, folks. It also dovetails with the writers' situation, where they are opening checks that are for pay in the dozens of dollars....[/quote] I agree they aren’t compensated enough in this situation, but they knew that when they took the job. Acting is a profession where supply of labor way exceeds demand. If they weren’t happy with their pay they should choose another job.[/quote]
