I was not expecting the way this endedâŚ
I mean, we knew, but it's nice to hear so succinctly
Interview with Michelle Hurd (SAG LA Vice President):
All your favorite things that you've been watching for years, and you know those actors that you go, "Oh, there's that guy on that show." You may not necessarily know their namesâyou may see me on a show, you may not know my name, but you've seen me on a lot of things. Those actors, those actors are working-class actors. We're literally working paycheck-to-paycheck.
It takes $26,000 to qualify for your health insurance for SAG-AFTRA. A guest star on a show, producers will do top-of-showâthis is a verbiage that they created, it's not in our contracts, it's what they createdâso they're not gonna budge above whatever their top-of-show is. Top-of-show, generally, could be anywhere from $5,000 to $7 or $8,000 an episode. Maybe that sounds great. So say I cobble together 2 or 3 guest stars during a year. People, our audiences, sees me on 3 or 4 different shows, and they're like, "Wow, that actress is working, she's doing all this stuff." I still, by doing that with top-of-show, I have still not qualified for my health insurance. We literally are going paycheck to paycheck.
Back in the day, we used to have quotes. That once you've been working for a certain amount of time, you're working really hard to get your quote up, to get your salary up. They decided to get rid of that, so they no longer acknowledge or respect that. This industry is one of the few industries that seniority, that being in this industry for a long time, that gathering up an amazing resume, doesn't mean anything to them.
Yes, there is some very wealthy actors. Absolutely. There's 160,000 members in our union. 160,000. 1% are the top grossers. 1%. And of that, maybe 2% are the ones that literally support and uplift our union, and keep the insurance going. Everybody else is below the line.
People don't realize that SAG-AFTRA is not just actors. We're broadcasters, we're stunt coordinators, stunt workers. We're dancers and singers and voiceover artists. There's a huge umbrella that we encompass, and 98% of those people are below the line? Are struggling to make a living? In an industry that we all know is making billions?
I think about this all the time, we talk about this in our caucuses. Back in the day, we used to talk about millions, everybody wanted to make millions, and oh wouldn't that be amazing. These people are making billions, and yet they don't have money to give us just a scooch more? To contribute to our pension and health? To allow us to qualify for our health insurance?
We have actors that you all will recognize. You will know us from that guy on that show that have lost their insurance, no longer qualify, and are hustling just to get a day on a job to just pay their rent. Not even their insurance, their rent.
This is a serious, crucial moment. This sounds hyperbolic or whatever, but it is a life-or-death situation. Because we're talking about, you know, taking care of our families. Taking care of our loved ones, you know, our parents, if they're getting older. You always, as a child, you want to be able to contribute. Should I be at this age, still asking my parents for money? No. I should be taking care of my parents. It's painful.
"binge-worthy show" man fuck that
i want my shows one episode followed by a whole ass week of going a little insane over it with the people on my phone, writing fics theorizing and going over every single scene through amazing gifs and meta, before the next ep drops and the cicle begins anew
speak louder
It's also contributing to the overall stagnation of writing. Binging isn't conducive to analysis.
Binging and whole season drops also seem to be a bit hard on fandoms and fan content creation.
Looking at eg. House of the Dragon last year, which spaced out 10 episodes over 10 weeks (that is 2 1/2 months) and the fandom content production and fandom discussions over multiple platforms were so high! It gave fans time to speculate, to produce and to wait for. It held the anticipation high and invigorated the fandom over a long time.
But Netflix (or other streaming services) when they drop a whole season in one go? I feel yes, many fans will watch it. But the vibe is very different. And there will be discussions and fan content, but I feel it is not necessarily good for a fandom in the long run. The built-up does not carry these fandoms as long for "casual" fans and will not bring the same influx of new fans and new content to those fandoms. And that is sad for fan spaces in my opinion.
It's not just fandom. When I teach popular culture, I also mention how binge culture is destroying the social function of shows.
In the traditional broadcasting structure, you have an episode a week at a set time - you sit down and you watch it, maybe make a family thing out of it. The next day you go to work, and your coworkers have seen the episode too, and you talk about it - because a tv show is a safe topic (not political, not too personal), so you have something to bond over/socialize.
But when a whole season drops at the same time... You either force yourself to binge it, turning your schedule upside down, or you watch it in bits, risking to fall behind. Say a popular show drops a season on a Saturday. On Monday at work, there will be people who haven't started it, people who are half-through, people who have finieshed it... Mix with the fear-of-spoilers culture, suddenly this point of bonding becomes restricted, even eradicated.
Itâs also destroying show production. These days if a season isnât binged in the first week â fully, completed, watched all the way through in THE FIRST WEEK â it doesnât get renewed. Thereâs no opportunity for shows to grow legs and catch on. Netflix wouldâve canceled The X-Files. Netflix wouldâve canceled so many classic shows that were allowed to find their audience gradually.

my dadâalso a writerâcame to visit, and i mentioned that the best thing to come out of the layoff is that iâm writing again. he asked what i was writing about, and i said what i always do: âoh, just fanfic,â which is code for âletâs not look at this too deeply because iâm basically just making action figures kiss in text formâ and âthis awkward follow-up question is exactly why i donât call myself a writer in public.â
he said, âyou have to stop doing that.â
âi know, i know,â because itâs even more embarrassing to be embarrassed about writing fanfic, considering how many posts iâve reblogged in its defense.
but i misunderstood his original question: âfanfic is just the genre. i asked what youâre writing about.âÂ
i did the conversational equivalent of a spinning wheel cursor for at least a minute. i started peeling back the setting and the characters, the fic challenge and the specific episode the story jumps off from, and it was one of those slow-dawning light bulb moments. âiâm writing about loneliness, and who we are in the absence of purpose.â
as, i imagine, are a lot of people right now, who probably also donât realize theyâre writing an existential diary in the guise of getting television characters to fuck.Â
âthatâs what youâre writing. the rest is just how you get there, and how you get it out into the world. was richard iii really about richard the third? would shakespeare have gotten as many people to see it if it wasnât a story they knew?â
so, my friends: what are you writing about?
this post kicked me like the football (admiring)

Everyone on the starship Voyager is at least a little bit in love with Captain Janeway and yes itâs sexual. Tuvokâs the only one whoâs immune to that last part because he views her as his gremlin little sister. Itâs not usual, itâs actually quite expected, that crews get strangely attached to their captains but on Voyager itâs 30 times worse because 1.) sheâs super intense and kinda flirts with everyone all the time anyway and she makes you feel so important but more importantly 2.) her captain super power is believing in people so hard they become the best versions of themselves. Itâs enough that anyone who spends longer than 12 hours in her presence will end up willing to die for her but THEN 3.) if you try to die for her she will either a.) avenge your ass so hard theyâll teach courses on it at the academy or b.) risk her own life to save you. She should have just let you die for the greater good but she didnât and she wouldnât and she wonât ever and the crimes youâre willing to do for her are about endless
Interesting research shows that Millennials in the UK and US are bucking the trend when it comes to growing more conservative with age.
