Soprano's Stars want more money

From IMDB: Cast members of hit mafia series The Sopranos are demanding
higher salaries after the show's bosses secured a string of lucrative rerun
rights and staggering DVD sales. Jamie-Lynn Sigler, who plays Meadow, Robert
Iler, who plays A.J., Steven Schirripa, who plays Bobby Bacala, Steven Van
Zandt, who plays Silvio Dante, Lorraine Bracco, who plays Dr. Melfi, and
Tony Sirico, who plays Paulie 'Walnuts', are all demanding a substantial
raise before signing up for the final season, set to begin next month.
They've reportedly threatened to walk out unless their wages more than
double. However, network HBO is only offering a fraction of their demands,
and may be forced to write characters out of the series if they don't
settle. A source tells the New York Post, "It's coming down to the wire. HBO
just doesn't want to pay. No one has deals and they're very far apart. (Show
creator) David Chase has tried to help the actors, but even his pleas have
fallen on deaf ears. The guys want (a new deal) to happen. These are the
last eight episodes, and the money is going to be coming in for HBO for
years to come. But the actors get no residuals - and they want to be
compensated. They're being treated like dog s**t." An HBO spokesman refused
to comment on the pay reports.

Sean Walsh...

Y'know, I was about to post "Yeah, give them the money! We need Silvio
and Paulie back."

But then they had to go say that "they're being treated like dog s**t"

Homeless people are treated like dog s**t!

Common folks are treated like dog s**t!

Dog s**t is treated like dog s**t!!!

These a**holes have careers now because of this f*cking show!

F*ck them!

John Poutre...

I was thinking along the same lines. I hope HBO says screw you to them.
