So will Rossum's greed kill the show?


If she wants equal pay from here on out, that's understandable. But wanting equal pay for past episodes - seasons - is ridiculous.

Why did she sign the contract?

That must have been some paycheck she got!

That's not at all what she demanded.

They had been offering her pay equal to William H Macy and even Macy thought she deserved it. The problem is that the greedy woman wouldn't accept the offer of equal pay; she thought she was worth more than Macy.

She did not demand back pay for the first seven seasons - she had a contract for those that she agreed to and that didn't happen. What she was saying is that she worked for seven seasons at lower pay than Macy and was using that as her argument for more pay. Her demands were to receive a higher salary than Macy; I sure hope she didn't get that.

She's really conceited if she thinks she's the main draw of the show, she's not... They all should be making the same, they all make the show, not just one of them.
