dinner or a casting call?

"I wonder how much it costs to rent a baby" wondered Adam after watching an episode of buffy tonight about a baby-eating sewer-dwelling demon.

Hmm, interesting question. How much do baby actors earn?

Apparently it's a lot for twins:
-about $200 a day as extras
->$2,500 per weekly episode of a sitcom
-$75-125/hr for print media




And now to ruin your breakfast:
babies chosen to play newborns are coated in cream cheese and jam to simulate birth (ewww, a breakfast baby bagel)
