TV actor salaries ?
folks,
Just curious -
What do the actors on the run of the mill T.V. shows earn for salary?
Not the Kelsey Grammers or the guys on Friends - the "stars" of average 1/2 hour comedy shows (that are lucky to last 2 seasons).
Just curious.....
Thanks,

At one time during the 80's.
There was the Tony Danza vs Larry Hagman watch.
These two were the highest paid TV actors of that period getting
around 100,000/epsiode..... plus royalties after they went to syndication.
Jerry Seinfeld did pretty darn good too
I heard the highest paid TV stars of today are the cast from Friends
So you are probably thinking people like:
Stars: $40,000/E
John Ritter
Courtney Thorne-Smith
Ray Romano
Co-stars: $25,000/E
Ray Romano's family
It depends how cose to the start their name are in the credits.
Scale I imagine for lessor names just stsrting out .
Scale for Extra's.
$2000-3000

I got to be an extra on the Fox TV show Dark Angel with Jessica Alba and were on set for a total of 13 hours and were actually in shooting for a total of about 30 minutes and we got paid roughly $150 canadian for that one day of shooting. So I imagine they make really good money because we were more then impressed.

Speaking of salaries, the average comp for CEO's of large American Corps. is $11 million. I have no problem with that if the CEO produces profits for shareholders but they get paid big bucks for FAILING. Example: EDS recently decided that their CEO was not meeting goals and needed to be replaced - his sererance paid him $32 million. I am considering coming out of retirement to become a CEO. I can promise a corp that I will run their business into the ground just as well as any other guy for a lot less money. Forget salary, let us talk severance package!

Hi-
I read somewhere that Steinfeld was getting over a million for episodes the last season. Damn CanadianFordman I remember Jessica Alba was in that cheesy show the new Flipper, but i'm bad
Take Ashley and Mary-kate for example, they're not gettin any younger

Thats very true. It was funny we barely got to talk to her but the girlfriend of Kelso (That 70's Show) was on set for Dark Angel and she was super hot and super friendly, we talked to her for probably over an hour.
There was also this guy who had been on many shows including Saved by the Bell and Friends (Monicas big boyfriend when they do the flashback to her and Rachels Prom) and he was so talkative and he told us all kinds of things about the business. Like The Cast of Saturday Night Live makes $1300 US each per episode, which I was fairly shocked to hear.
