Members Cheap21 Posted May 16, 2013 Members Share Posted May 16, 2013 I wonder if these changes will be addressed on More AMC/OLTL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Days22 Posted May 16, 2013 Members Share Posted May 16, 2013 I really dont get that if its a money issue, and it is, to just air like seasons. 8 months a year straight. Then off for 4 or what not. Or on 4 off two on 4 off 2. Idiots. Oh yeah at least we still get this drivel every week. So much eyeroll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted May 16, 2013 Members Share Posted May 16, 2013 And then there is this, which sounds reasonable but I still don't like two a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted May 16, 2013 Members Share Posted May 16, 2013 They are only at least doing one more show instead of 2. That's a positive... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AMCHistory Posted May 16, 2013 Members Share Posted May 16, 2013 The cash flow must not be sustaining a 4 episodes a week business model. As a Corperate Strategist, I can tell you this does not sounds good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LindaTNo1 Posted May 16, 2013 Members Share Posted May 16, 2013 I think that this is correct. Editors/writers need time for scripts and post-production and maybe they cannot hire anymore editors/writing team due to bugetary constraints. This is some kind of bombshell, for sure.

Members Darn Posted May 16, 2013 Members Share Posted May 16, 2013 So these shows will essentially be 1 hour dramas. I hope they can match the quality of a primetime one hour drama. There's no excuses anymore about having to fill so many hours a week and whatnot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted May 16, 2013 Members Share Posted May 16, 2013 How are the actors contracts set up? Are they paid per episode or is their pay set for the length of the contract? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members David Jones Posted May 16, 2013 Members Share Posted May 16, 2013 For me the thrill is gone. I can't get invested again now, but will continue watching them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted May 16, 2013 Members Share Posted May 16, 2013 Do you think then deciding after three weeks to make such a change was a good strategy? The actors are paid per day that they work not by episode, so if they tape 20 episodes or 5 in a day they get the same money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
