Re: Official WGA Writers Strike thread.
How do the actors' contracts work?
When they are reported it seems to always be in $x per episode terms. I guess they are just under contract for a year and they expect it to go 20 episodes or whatever so they can report it that way.
This way seems risky to the studios but I guess the 5 week suspension option is a way for the actors and studios to share the risk of episodes not going to air.
