Lily and Jane are back….and they’re pissed off

Netflix has made quite a splash with Grace and Frankie. Alas, stars Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin are not so thrilled with how things have been handled behind the scenes. The ladies may play the titular stars, but they happen to be getting the same salary as Martin Sheen and Sam Waterston. Jane spoke out to the press: “Lily found out Sam and Martin are getting the same salary that we are. That doesn’t make us happy.” Lily added, “The show is not Sol and Robert – it’s Grace and Frankie!” Although there are some cases where the supporting actors do as much of the heavy lifting as the leads (as in, say, Will & Grace), Grace and Frankie has clearly given the brunt of the burden to the ladies. And the ladies have surprising allies in Sheen and Waterston. The men sat down with Kathie Lee and Hoda Kotb and said Jane and Lily should be given a raise. “They carry the show,” said Sheen. Waterston added, “I think they’re being cheated.”
