It's Hard Out Here For a Chimp

It is one of the greatest injustices ever perpetrated in Hollywood -- Cheeta the chimp is not on the Walk of Fame.
Cheeta: Click to watch
The legendary 76-year-old star (yes, 76) of "Bedtime for Bonzo" and "Tarzan" is on a one mammal mission to get his name on a star on Hollywood Blvd. Not only does he have his own website, the artistic simian is coordinating an online petition to get him on the Walk, publishing a book, putting a single on iTunes and starring in a new movie!

Kermit, Lassie and Godzilla have theirs -- give the chimp a chance.

Simpsons cast gets a hefty raise

The standoff between The Simpsons voice cast and series producer 20th Century Fox TV is over.

After months of negotiations, the cast of Fox's long-running animated series reached a new four-year deal with the studio during the weekend.

Under the pact, the top actors will be paid nearly $US400,000 per episode.

While this is lower than the reported $US500,000 the cast originally sought, it remains a significant increase from their current paychecks of about $US300,000 an episode.

By contrast, Charlie Sheen is the highest-paid sitcom star, reportedly earning $US350,000 per episode in 2006.

Additionally, Dan Castellaneta, who voices Homer Simpson and has penned several Simpsons episodes over the years, is being named a consulting producer.

Castellaneta and most of the other key Simpsons voice players - Julie Kavner (Marge), Nancy Cartwright (Bart), Yeardley Smith (Lisa) and Hank Azaria (Moe) - are slated to begin work on the upcoming 20th season.

As of Monday, the status of Harry Shearer, who voices Mr Burns and Ned Flanders, among other characters, was unclear.

Because of a last-minute snag, his deal did not close with the other cast members', and it was not clear if he would show up for work on Tuesday.

As a result of the drawn-out contract negotiations, the upcoming season of The Simpsons has been reduced by two episodes to 20.

While the deal makes the voice cast available for four more seasons, Fox has yet to order the animated comedy beyond season No. 20.

The Simpsons cast and 20th TV have been down this road before.

Most recently in 2004, the actors held up production of the 16th season by skipping two table reads during negotiations.

They ended up more than doubling their previous salary.
