That’s fucked up.
Somebody’s getting paid for it
Is this just because contracts in 1987-1995 named specific distribution methods which didn’t include streaming because it didn’t exist yet?
Hopefully she saved some money from before streaming. She probably made about $10M during the original run and syndication before streaming. So about more than i will make in 10 lifetimes probably

That’s messed up 😡
How rude!
She is so fine. And a terrible actress
It’s just so astounding how much money is in exploiting actual doers in our society. Don’t make art, sell art for people who make it, that’s where 1/10th of the work is, and 99% of the money is. It’s mind blowing.
Lisa Kudrow says she still gets 15 mill a year from friends.
I thought the SAG strike got streaming residuals covered??? Did it only cover stuff made after the strike?
Edit: Apparently they didn’t get the 2% direct revenue sharing deal and it covers based on a show being added to a streaming platform in the first 90 days and being a top 20% earner. That’s still so fucked.

The cascading effects of this are tragic. Film/TV industry is impossible to live on for full time income without residuals. The work for 90% of the crew is day rate, and if nobody can afford to write, nobody gets days. Union membership also requires a certain number of days to become and remain a member, so nobody is safe. More than just actors make their lives in production, and the majority of them are also paycheck to paycheck.
Friends cast is getting paid for it.
I k is they just did a SAG restructure of their contracts but this should be addressed.
The cast of “Friends” is getting paid for it.
I can’t believe legally showing it on streaming somehow makes it not count towards royalties.
