it's fun!

[DarthSheen]

Can't the hot actresses do porn in the mean time?

[InternetHit]

Who's the "hot actress"?

[DarthSheen]

I just meant in general, but the strike's over so it's moot.

[HzlEyedBeauty]

Believe it or not actors really don't make that much normally - of couse celebrities make huge amounts but if you propose to pay them less what's going to happen to the littler actors? The ones who are barely making a living as it is?

[urbanslang]

well just how do you propose they show their support then? you can't have it both ways...and yes, it portects their interests as well...but if they didn't show support...then everyone would lose anyways...

[unknownunknowns]

You know I would like to see if these actors can do the writing themselves since we give them trophies and huge salaries for looking pretty. These explain why there is so much OBSSESSION with celbrities.

[Belleune23]

who writes these?

[electrostrike]

does anybody know how much a writer gets paid (on average) to write for a show like... desperate housewives for example? just out of interest

[Anaclon]

I read yesterday a good example of how much one gets paid... a guy was talking about getting 65 k for a movie on which he worked from 1999 to 2003, and then again on 2007 for a polish, so although it seems like a lot, it's actually just much for five years worth of work. He said that was pretty standard payment.

[electrostrike]

thanks for the info - yes it does seem alot, but after paying bills and for the people who have a family to provide for im sure that money runs low after a while. and what with not having confirmed work - like an artist without a commision!

[lizjewelry]

Don't forget to take out agent's and manager's commissions, then taxes. Writers net a little less than 1/2 to 1/3rd of payment for each script. That's for film.

Plus, for a film script, the original writer is paid in installments for each draft. Most starting writers (and some seasoned) only get paid for the first draft, maybe second. A script goes thru sev. drafts b/f shooting...if it makes it that far. It's an odd odd system.

[lizjewelry]

My brother is a film writer. He's one of the 'strike life' video makers. His wife writes for a "#1 ABC Comedy!!!" . Trust me, if they were making the kind of $ the AMPTP wants people to think they make I'd be driving a much nicer car, and I'd own my own home. They rent BTW.

[electrostrike]

jeez.... really puts the WGA strike into perspective for some of us who aren't to knowledged about it

[2ndhandprose]

Usually about $3000/week for a half hour sitcom. Which might last for 13 weeks. That means less than $40,000 a year. Residuals for repeats. And syndication is a godsend.

I am an Oscar-nominated writer, and I have never made more than $42,000 a year.

And the years around that year I made nothing.

Yeah. We're rich. I rent, have a roommate, and drive a 14-year-old car.

What? And give up show business? :-D

[ao9news]

Well that sucked. Is their point that if there were real writers these wouldn't suck? Some of them are kinda good, but it gets old quickly, and having sub-par actors or "celebrities" doesn't help.

[CreepCrawler]

it's somehow reassuring to see that Longoria can overact without even speaking... I was beginning to wonder if the dialogs were that bad...

[OutsanityDotCom]

action and cut is words!!!!

THE LIES UPON LIES!!!

[indartsu]
