Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
A year? More like multi year contract with yearly outs.
Multi year? Why would agree to that? It's not to the actors advantage.
Contracts are never really to the actors advantage. You can be fired easily but it's hard to quit.

I think he is doing Tale of Two Todds too.
Okay I never watched OLTL...can someone recap this story what is the Tale of Two Todds
That isn't the story because there is no face change.

I doubt they have miller longer than a year. He only went to GH because he couldn't find work. He'll try again during Pilot Season and if he gets a role he is gone after his year is done.

They don't only have him for a year and the outs aren't what people are thinking. He has outs to do other projects just like he did with Sony. He can't just up and leave whenever he wants.
He might have only signed for a year, doesn't mean he wouldn't stay longer., re-sign.

A short contract is better for the actor.

My point is if he was playing negotiation hardball he'd try for one year if he could, rather than multi year.

Exactly. Which is most likely why negotiations took so long. FV would want to keep Billy chained to GH for 2 or 4 years. Billy wouldn't want to be stuck on a soap because he wants to get into primetime again.

Do you really think The network or FV would take a chance like that? They gave him outs to do other projects. That includes movies or prime time. They gave him a liver role on GH. Rarely do actors sign one year contracts. Even more rare when you are new to that show.

Yes. Because Miller isn't some young nobody. Negotiations took forever because Miller would want the most advantageous contract. He has a year contract, with options to do projects, most likely pilot season in February 2015.

He has said it over and over that he wants out. Y&R offered even more money to keep him but they wouldn't give him a short term contact either. GH must have given him good money and the contract he wanted in the end.

That's the conventional wisdom but one year contracts have happened under these circumstances before. I wouldn't rule it out.

Kelly had a one year contract after DWTS too. So did SBu when he returned to GH. When they couldn't find work elsewhere, they re-signed with GH.
