Zeus 09/02/17 3:26:49 AM #472:	The Wave Master posted... The Simpson's fired long time composer Alf Clausen. It was a cost saving effort as using a 32 piece orchestra to score 22 episodes a season can be expensive. I'm not sure how long The Simpson's has left in its historic run. They just got a contract extension last year, but once that's over so may be The Simpson's. Honestly, I expect it to run damn near forever. And the recent seasons have been more hit than miss. The only thing that might derail it is if one of the six main cast members dies (well, the actress who does Lisa only does Lisa so no big loss there, but Hank Shearer would be devastating) The Wave Master posted... Since I've been watching a crap ton of Power Rangers on Netflix, instead of playing Horizon Zero Dawn, I got curious about the back stage shenanigans during the second season. The season that they began changing out the cast. Well, it turns out Haim Sabin is a cheap bastard, and a horrible human beibg. The actors weren't union, and he didn't pay them scale at all. So when three of them, the yellow, black, and red rangers, wanted more money per episode, and union representation, he replaced them with newer cheaper actors. Sabin also didn't pay his composer his fair share either. He made the composer on the first 3 seasons use a psydeum so that he wouldn't get credit and thus no royalties for reruns and residuals. I guess it's smart business practice but horrible human resource practices. Yep, those were the rumors even at the time. The cost-cutting got even crazier when Disney took over and they moved everything to NZ and started hiring locals. The Wave Master posted... Well P.O. it happened. You were right all along. I'm finally done with humanity. My wife was telling me that you should just give up on humanity because it's just not worth your time and effort and she was right. I'm not going to go into details, but yeah I'm just done with most of my family and humanity too. It feels good to not give a **** about people. So melodramatic... --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash <cite>Zeus posted [p:885882971] in Super Geek...
