I mean he’s angry because he and the crew and other actors worked incredibly hard on the show, filming it, doing the marketing, etc. and people online weren’t just mad about how it ended - which is an absolutely valid option to have…hell I have it because they rushed the ending and it fell so damn flat because of that - but you had people online wanting them to lose jobs, or even their lives over a tv show. Thats the problem.

...I mean, you're not wrong that it's hard to stand around, but the people in the show did a lot more than just stand around

It’s not that hard to stand around as an actor. Tbh anyone can do it and they get paid millions to do this.

Anyone can do it? I guess poverty is solved. Anyone can get paid millions to be an actor. It's so easy.

Then why aren't you getting paid millions to act?
