I think it is important that folks know that the compensation and duration requirements of acting contracts can differ, all dependent on the parties involved. Many of these are negotiable but some common forms of compensation are: Flat-Rate for the Job Hourly Per-Performance Percentage of Proceeds

Another slight misconception is the idea of how many episodes are "guaranteed". Generally speaking, there could be a start and an end date given to the actor or a set amount of hours the actor is obligated to be available per day; whatever terms are met. This doesn't necessarily translate to the amount of episodes the actor appears in, especially after editing is done. There could exist entire scenes that are later left out or unneeded, either way the actor was compensated.
