I heard somewhere that she only gets paid like 250K a year though..

 

[solidus snake]

Wasn't Jerry getting paid damn near a million an episode on Seinfeld?

 

[al audi]

Damn........

 

[rico x hood]

Oprah?

 

[al audi]

Wasn't Jerry getting paid damn near a million an episode on Seinfeld?

I thought he was. Charlie Sheen before he fell off also too right?

 

[Sonny Corinthos]

Judge Judy is getting paid that much and she is still an a**hole . True Brooklyn girl

 

[cash money 1999]

Wasn't Jerry getting paid damn near a million an episode on Seinfeld?

i think the whole friends cast was making a million each , that was crazy

i think kelsey grammar was getting 2 million an episode on frasier

 

[Air273]

wait Dinklage is getting paid more than heinsberg.
i would guess LD is one of the highest paid men ever for a TV show. star, writer, creator for curb, all hail king david

 

[shogun]

Whoa, cool to see Tatiana Maslany making that much from BBC America. She is freaking amazing on Orphan Black.

How is Strahan already making more than my love Kelly Ripa?

Judge Judy is caking with $47 million a year. Crazy.

 

[dmbrhs]

Wasn't Jerry getting paid damn near a million an episode on Seinfeld?

More, I think. The Friends cast was all making more than $1 million per that final season or two. They always negotiated their contracts together and they always ensured they'd make the same amount.

Also, Leno is down to $20 million because he took a massive pay cut to hang onto as many staff members as possible. He makes a lot more doing standup than he does doing the Tonight Show anyway. I'm surprised Kimmel is only at $10 million though. Thought he'd be making a little more than that.

i think kelsey grammar was getting 2 million an episode on frasier

Friends also, but I don't think it was all of em.

 

[marco23]

 Kutcher makes 750,000 an episode

 

[the hater boxden]

Why are news anchors getting paid this much?

 

[Sonny Corinthos]

Why are news anchors getting paid this much?

I'm with you . Those people aren't Walter Cronkite .


Matt Lauer shouldn't be that hard to replace .

 

[36Hypno]

Whoa, cool to see Tatiana Maslany making that much from BBC America. She is freaking amazing on Orphan Black.
.

 

[al audi]

 Kutcher makes 750,000 an episode

It really is mind blowing lol. Guy still does movies. Jobs just came out the 16th an he prob gets a nice check from endorsing too.

 

[acemaster193]

Kutcher making that Charlie Sheen money.

Judge Judy is caking. Sheesh

 

[Mactastic4167]

Unreal how much Ashton makes, show is not that good either.

Duck Dynasty > everything else on tv

Srs

 

[dmbrhs]

Friends also, but I don't think it was all of em.

Nah, Friends cast all made the same. It was a big deal every time their contract came up, because everyone thought one person might hold out, or something.

 

[nazdrowie]

why is jason segal getting so much?

i think we all know ted (josh radnor) makes the show

 

[ecruteakcityboy]

Unreal how much Ashton makes, show is not that good either.

Duck Dynasty > everything else on tv

Srs

that show is so cringe worthy.

 

[savage legend]

boycott tv

 

[lyonbc1]

I am flabbergasted Matt Lauer makes that much, same with Judge Judy Thats totally ridiculous. I didn't even know people still watched her show now like that

 

[al audi]

Oooo Shhhhhh. I didnt even notice Judge Judy. How many years she been on? Its crazy how much money some ppl got lol. Guess it's that serious. Her ratings that high?
