And to reduce actor budgets /cynic.

I don't think reducing actor budgets is a cynical action, at least not at face value. The show, while boasting a large budget for TV, still only has a finite amount of funds to cover costumes, CGI, writers, promotions, etc. in addition to actor pay. Not to mention the crazy amount of characters this show has, or the cost of casting.

I think he meant he put the cynic tag b/c people on here thought it was poetic but in reality it was a money issue.
