Even BETTER than pics! Fellow Whedonite AlphaT0ne has posted a lovely video (Part one of future installments) interviewing Joss and the writers and actors, as well as the hundreds of fans who showed up on Mutant Enemy Strike Day in support of the WGA members. More to come I'm sure!



***************************************
Morena Baccarin and Nathan Fillion, when asked about the Mal and Inara dynamic:

Morena: Who knows where this relationship is going.
Nathan: If I had my druthers, if we ever hook up I hope it’s on my death bed.
Morena: You don’t want to kiss me, do you?
Nathan: I do. But not for the sake of the show.
Morena: Good answer.
***************************************
*sigh* even adorable off screen...

Aren't these writers a bunch of crybabies, kind of like the MLB players (minus the steroids, but not necessarily the cocaine). Come on!!! I'm a software engineer. I work for what I'm payed for. If I don't like a salary, I don't take the job!! Grow up and move on. If you don't like what you're getting paid, quit and move on!!

That's pretty much what they're doing! Just that all of the writers decided to do it at the same time. Sorta the nature of a union, the primary tool of bargained (unionized & under union contract rules) employees. Remeber the old Three Musketeers motto, "One for all and all for one"? Yeah, that's a union. Right up there with Inara putting a black mark in the client registry next to Atherton's name.

You know when to walk away from a job because it isn't at or above, "The industry standard compensation for the expected work product." When you look at the next job (or contract), you negotiate the terms; a little less pay, but a few more perks or vice versa. The time to negotiate is generally after one contract expires, and before the next begins.
The writers are simply negotiating the new "Industry Standard," at the time appointed by the expiration of the previous contract.

And more power to 'em.
