Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
No. They sign actors beyond the amount of time they THINK they might need them.
So, that means they needed him for less than a year.
Maybe. But considering how RC writes, FV signs people multiple years because RC can't finish a story as planned. For all we know, the original plan was for Patrick to leave GH last May. But RC ends up stretching a story for 2 years.

He is the shittiest of all soap writers.

:uh-wtf Doesn't that mean they signed him for the amount of time they needed him?
Not necessarily
Maybe he didn't want a multiple year contract? GH only needs him for this story, so...

I have contract information too.

Studios want actors to sign long term no matter what. This gives the networks and studios breathing room to use the actors as they please without worrying about negotiating longer stays. The studios can end a contract with an actor during cycle renewals which occur about 4 or 5 times a year.

This is a standard method which all networks use. The cycles are stipulated by the unions so actors can't be terminated without notice.
That's pretty much what I said.

That's why anyone claiming JT signed short term is lying
Not really. ME used to sign for one year over at OLTL. Robert Woods and others with take the 4 or 5 years deal.

This is the most ridiculous convo. Contracts don't mean shit. JT and KMc will be out when FV is done with them, period.

Back then ME had clout.

OLTL isn't GH no matter how much FV and RC try to make it so. ME to GHers is just another shitty actor taking up screentime.

:clapping At the end of the day, GH just doesn't have the budget any longer. Billy Miller and Michelle Stafford didn't come cheaply. Easton has done nothing for the show, and I wouldn't be surprised if he and Frank came to a mutual decision.

You can see onscreen how shitty their budget is now. It's cheap looking.

Billy Miller and Michelle Stafford were among the highest paid on Y&R. And if they were courting Billy Miller for that long, his pay must be a doozy.

People have to be cut to afford these two actors. And not just recurring characters.

BM and MS only signed for 3 years with the regular 13 week out cycle.

I want to know when it will be confirmed that Easton is gone!! He never should have stayed past the Caleb revisit mess IMO. I feel like RH( Franco) will turn out to be a fraud not the real one. Kiki is good with either micheal or Morgan. She's safe too.
