    Here's something I always wondered about the premise: For most of the "actors" playing inside Truman's fiction, they can work like normal actors. They get time off (when not near Truman). Many could probably live outside the Truman bubble, and take vacations, have real families. But for the central characters, they really have to live within this imaginary world full time, living in the bubble playing these roles full time. And for his wife, it's 100% full time. That's not really an acting job. And what about intimacy? Is there a contractual obligation to have intercourse? This whole situation is really messed up.

    “The Burns and Allen Show” used to work commercial messages about coffee, and other products, seamlessly into conversations during the show, on TV and radio. It actually didn’t even detract from the show, because it was entertaining. George Burns would often look directly at the camera and talk to the audience, and he sometimes watched a TV to see what the other characters were doing. Also, some of the main actors played themselves, even though it was fictional.
