Did they have to add all that "Aloha" spirit and 'Mahalo and a hui hou' nonsense when both these actors were korean? Shyt is nothing new, same thing happened to the cast of CSI


Ps sucks tho, not a fan of the Asians but diversity is always a good thing and an Asians presence on American anything is a rarity. They just lost a steady paycheque over.......well pride :francis:

But here's the thing, how you pay the WHITE stars more than both of the other cast mates?!?! it should be equal across the board... :why:

Remember the seinfeld cast? they fought for those bonuses Jerry didnt have to do it but he recognized it wouldnt be the same shyt without any of them. :francis:

But Seinfeld was really an ensemble piece with each co stars outshining him and carrying the show. He was the glue and straight guy but they did all the heavy lifting and he knew it. This is different, I don't watch the show but I bet their roles weren't to the level that made them indispensable. That's when you need to recognize whether you have any leverage at the negotiation table. If theirs was just we bring colour to the cast and we deserve equal pay :francis:

That's the part in this that's foul, execs are going to be execs I get their side no matter how backwards. Its their co-stars that should have intervened and put the pressure on. But no one really does that, Seinfeld had invested interest as a exec producer and co creator. But in similar cases like xfiles or castle the male co stars did not lift a finger. These d list actors aren't about to fuk up this gig

I am talking about the white leads, the Aussie was doing cancelled shows after cancelled show and James's son wasn't exactly in demand. The Asians have already fuked up this gig over the pay dispute, what's wrong with your reading comprehension breh:why:
