The show “Gilmore Girls” has thrived remarkably on streaming platforms, even getting a Netflix revival season titled “A Year in the Life” in 2016. Yet, this digital fame hasn’t necessarily led to substantial earnings for the cast of the series, as star Lauren Graham pointed out during her appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” last Wednesday.
Graham clarified when asked about the absence of royalties on Netflix, stating that he has instead been compensated with affection. He elaborated that they have managed to reach a larger audience than previously on The WB. This includes not just younger viewers, but also older demographics and men who might have been reluctant watchers, forced by their kids or wives. It’s surprising yet frequent when people recognize him.
The ongoing discussion in the entertainment industry revolves around adapting a compensation model based on residuals for content streamed online, as audience preferences change from television to streaming platforms. A crucial point of contention during the 2023 SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes was the unions’ push for performance-based incentives for their members. As a result of negotiations between the actors guild and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP), actors appearing on the most popular streaming productions will now receive a 75% residual bonus. The remaining 25% will be placed into a newly established Success Bonus Distribution Fund, which will distribute funds more widely to actors in other streaming series.
In 2018, “Gilmore Girls” production manager Gavin Polone filed a lawsuit against Warner Bros., claiming that they failed to pay him royalties for the four-episode Netflix reboot titled “A Year in the Life.
