'Kimye v. Taylor: American Snapchat Story'

October 9, 2016 9:16 AM

The Ringer puts forth an interesting exercise: "draft" a TV show, spending a total of $250 on actor's salaries, time period, setting, special effects, intellectual property, and miscellaneous expenses ($12 for "gritty", $7 per pun in title). Readers submitted their own ideas, ranging from James Marsden and Geena Davis on a miniature golf course to a remake of Up with Charles Barkley and Matt LeBlanc.

The difference between men's and women's salaries in this exercise are striking.

People really want to see Geena Davis in more stuff. Take note Hollywood.
