Again, THEY DON’T OWN THE PRODUCT.

And? They created it. Without them it does not exist. If their labor is worth so little then why is Hollywood putting so much money and time into breaking the strikes so they can own their labor without fully compensating them for it? Why does a company deserve to own a money printing machine but the people who made what they sell don’t deserve anything from it?

Again, THEY DON’T OWN THE PRODUCT. If they want residuals, then need to negotiate that with the network. As it is, they are paid $25-35K per episode which is a LOT of money for a weekly show per season.

Stop the White-Knighting for people who probably make exponentially more money than you do. Again- If they want to make royalties/residuals they can either negotiate for it- or create their own production company.

I’m not going to argue about this with you.

How much do the studio, producer, directer, and showrunners make? I think the writers are equal to the producer, directer and showrunners at least. Do they make more than I do? Probably. All of us should be sharing in more of the profits, not taking others down.

They’re contracted. So it’s irrelevant. It’s all based on what agreements they made with the production co.

I think the writers are equal to the producer, directer and showrunners at least.…

The keyword here is “I think….”

When they’re not risking loss, they’re NOT equal.

No one is taking anyone down here. It’s just logical argument. You are basing everything on how you think it should be, without knowing how it is.
