A sporting event has an unknown outcome and consequences as a team moves toward a final show off like Stanley,World Cup or super bowl. So a season has to be played out and everyone gets paid for season.
A show has a defined ending. So one taping of a performance is it. Yes there is nuance of performance but nothing to tape multiple performances 8 times a Week for months. So actors might get paid a lot for one performance that could be sold to a few hundred thousand people (probably the number of tickets sold for fathom events). But really doesn’t help the industry as a whole like sporting events would. |
