I agree that they may be close to that line! Maybe if they cut the actors pay scale a little they can give it to the people that make them the stars! What would actors say if they had no screenplay?

they should do something.....an actor would not be an actor if they had no lines to read....

I agree with that. Plus actors have the availability to make up their funds in other promotional deals that writers are not offered. Famous people tend to forget about how much they make compared to normal class!

What the writers are fighting for is royalties that they should automatically be entitled to -- like PodCasts, which they currently do not get paid for. I know a writer, and they should very well be on strike till they get what they are owed. Though I agree TV suffers greatly :)
