[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 438783, member: 27"] I saw it more as a situation where the producers (as a group, not just the individual producers on CA and 3C) had to make an example of both actresses in order to keep the actors (as a group) from gaining advantage. Even after each left their respective show, other producers felt obligated to shun them to continue the "punishment" to send the message that[I] if you get too demanding, we can ruin you[/I]. The producers knew that if they caved in to a popular actor's demands, then they'd have to do it every time a show became popular. There was an inevitable march toward just that destination (where stars wielded more power over the direction of a show than producers), but producers were fighting it all the way. [/QUOTE]
