In the news: The Jane Show’s Teresa Pavlinek

From the Toronto Star:

  • Vegan right down to her footwear
    ” ‘Canadians are watching Canadian TV — you just have to tell them about it. Would I work in the U. S.? Sure, I’d do 24.” But she wouldn’t give up the creating, producing and writing part of things. ‘It’s hard to go back to actor for hire because you lose a large amount of control,’ she explains. ‘If and when I go south, I’d love to pitch a show. I don’t want to be the wacky neighbour. I say that now, cut to me playing the wacky neighbour.’ “

In the news: Tentative deal ends ACTRA strike

From the Canadian Press:

  • Striking Canadian actors reach deal
    “ACTRA, which represents 21,000 members across Canada, said it made sure current productions such as “Deal or No Deal,” “Little Mosque on the Prairie” and the upcoming season of “Canadian Idol” were not affected by the dispute by signing special deals with individual producers. But the producers association complained that the strike significantly hurt potential projects, pointing to prospective U.S. movie deals that have been scuttled by the labour woes.”
