Question: Why are you IN a movie, but you're ON TV!?

For the same reason that you get a pair of pants!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
When you are speaking about these things the movie is not necessarly playing therefore your "in" the movie you can not be "on" the movie!. When your talking about TV the show or program your in is usually on at a relevernt time therefore your "on" tv tonight or whenever - it all to do when the relevent thing is showingWww@Enter-QA@Com
Hmmm not sure, good question though!.
Here is my stab at it!.
I believe you are "IN" a movie because, your name is listed IN the credits so I think thats how IN got tagged to that!.!.!. not sure!.
HOWEVER, I am relatively certain about this because TV "airs" and when a live broadcast is airing, the term we use around the station is "on air" so I think you are "ON" tv because you are ON airtime!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
