Highest Paid TV Actors – Comedy 

We already know celebs make all the money. As more movie stars join the TV world, salaries have gone up to accommodate their status. Okay, besides accommodation salaries have seen a little bump and it’s quite interesting to see the major differences in salary between certain stars. I will be doing two more installments for the drama and hosting segments of TV. This info was originally posted by Variety back in January. Here we go:

Cast of Big Bang Theory (Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco and Johnny Galecki) – $1 million

Dwayne Johnson (Ballers) – $400, 000

Drew Barrymore (Santa Clarita Diet) – $350, 000

The Simpsons Voice Cast – $315, 000

Jeffrey Tambor (Transparent) – $275, 000

Julia Louis-Dreyfus (Veep) – $250, 000

Tim Allen (Last Man Standing) – $250, 000

Patricia Heaton(The Middle) – $250, 000

Cast of Modern Family – $250, 000

Ted Danson (The Good Place) – $225, 000

Kevin James (Kevin Can Wait) – $200, 000

Matt LeBlanc (Man With A Plan) – $200, 000

Mindy Kaling (Mindy Project) – $140, 000

Zooey Deschanel (New Girl) – $130, 000

Kristen Bell (The Good Place) – $125, 000

America Ferrera (Superstore) – $125, 000

Anthony Anderson – $100, 000

Tracee Ellis Ross – $80, 000

Gina Rodriguez – $60, 000

Some of the salaries include profit participation and producing cuts. Do you see any surprises? I think I was surprised that The Rock is the second highest paid comedy actor behind the Big Bang Theory cast.
