'Simpsons' cast cuts deal

They've reached a four-year agreement with Fox that will give the top stars (or voices) nearly $400,000 an episode! The two sides have been negotiating for months, with cast members shooting for 500K. Currently, they're making 300K. Talk about solidarity - in 2004 the actors held up production of the 16th season over a salary dispute. They ended up more than doubling their previous salary. Wonder how many headline writers will succumb to the "D'Oh" temptation? (THR)
