No shit. That's how it works.

Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”

A lot of these actors are pretending to be something they are not. Oh, that goes for politicians too. Guess I should have lied more. If I had I might be President. At least a Senator. Why do these idiots expect citizens to obey the law when they don't?

Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”

The amount of wasted dollars in the aerospace industry is incredible. Boeing does not need these rebates. They could easily afford to continue their productions without these government subsidies and if they cannot, the free market has judged them. Just another liberal example of do as I say, not as I do.

Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”

@nofaith - The purpose of the tax breaks is to bring those jobs to SC. It is free market working by providing the tax breaks! SC is giving the film/TV industry a reason to bring its business here & not another state.

I would rather give a business a tax break to bring more jobs to SC rather than having higher unemployment.

Well done SC Legislature!

Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”

In my opinion, you shouldn't support the film industry at all, as a lot of standing around goes into making film.

Stop watching movies. Adhere to your principles.

Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”

Not looking for a fight but go and watch the amount of money wasted on the Army Wives set. I watched them spend a full day with at least 50 people to close off a section of East Montague and film a portion of a 30 second promo. There were five people there who were in charge of bringing each of the actresses their shoes when the cameras stopped rolling. Yeah, all of those people got to work but it is and incredible amount of money that gets wasted. If they were not throwing it away I wouldn't feel so bad but they are not the folks that need tax breaks.

Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”

I think the rebates should be larger.

Re: “CBS getting ‘Reckless’ this fall”

I agree with Cid that Cam Gigandet is super-hot. I also want to clutch him as we attempt the first non-stop trans-Atlantic Yamaha Waverunner™ ride.

It pleases me to see that we can be so open about our sexuality on here.

I hope that works out for you, since you're paying the taxes the millionaires aren't.

Like most shows set in the South, will they constantly have a sheen of perspiration on their brows as the ceiling fans fail to overcome the sultry weather?

Re: “Kathie Lee and Hoda taking over the Cistern Thursday”

I don't think people in Malawi would consider "John Smith" to be an unusual name.

Re: “Kathie Lee and Hoda taking over the Cistern Thursday”

Hey Pronghorn - Hoda has years of journalistic chops and is of Egyptian descent, hence the Egyptian name of Hoda. I'm sure "John Smith" seems like an unusual name in Malawi too.
