I was surprised myself. Also, the article makes it out like she gave up on television and to some degree acting, but she's in a guest arc on Eureka right now.

  That fact (and the Dr. Horrible ignore) probably wouldn't fit the narrative the articles author was going for. It also doesn't give credit to Felicia Day's pragmatism and judgement. I am not a fan of how Forbes does a lot of their articles.

  Except it specifically said this had replaced acting as primary income, not replaced it entirely. It probably didn't do enough to highlight the fact she still does some gigs, though. Nor the fact most of the tv work she DOES do seems to be driven by people who like her work on the Guild and so they reach out to her, instead of the usual going out for a casting call, which should have fit the narrative of the ways it has further empowered her to move forward.

    most of the tv work she DOES do seems to be driven by people who like her work on the Guild and so they reach out to her Or else they know she has a huge online following, and throwing her into a few episodes will give 'em an extra half a million viewers from the "lonely geek" demographic?

      To be fair that's still liking her work, just her work of luring in those extra half million viewers as hardcore fans.
