TV Guide lists the highest-paid TV stars: Howard Stern No. 2 judge

It's amazing how much Howard earns compared to how little work he has to do, at least compared to actors and actresses.

http://www.tvguide.com/News/TVs-Highest-Paid-Stars-1051754.aspx

The highest-paid actor on a drama (Mark Harmon) earns $12 million a year.

The highest-paid comedy actor (Ashton Kutcher) earns $16.8 million a year.

The highest-paid reality TV judge (Mariah Carey) earns $17 million a year.

And Howard earns $15 million a year.

 

i saw ncis a few times and i thought it sucked. i'd rather watch the new CSI's with fuckin ted danson than that schlock.

 

So many hungry kids....

 

More overpaid Ashton Kutcher or Howard Stern?

 

Kutcher deserves every penny.

Charlie Sheen's last season averaged 12.73 million viewers.

Kutcher's 1st season averaged 14.64 million viewers, many of them from the coveted young viewer demographic.

Kutcher saved CBS' cash cow and a syndicated cash cow.

He delivered.

Meanwhile, Howard Stern replaced Piers Morgan and ratings went DOWN.

 

hey, private jet fuel isn't free! mansions & private jets come first, world hunger fifteenth.

 

How about Britney who gets $15m from X-Factor, there is no fucking way Howard is getting the same as a world famous celebrity. Like all of these lists they are based on guestimates without any facts. Howard is a nothing away from the US

 

yet flunkie claimed that his boff gets 30 million? I suspect that Howard has signed for 2 years but isn't admitting it and will go through all kinds of bullshit about whether to resign or not

 

==============


sound thinking

and we only know his contract to the extent Stern wants
to tell us ..........and we all know how big a liar he is

 

Howard believes he is still underpaid of course . . .

 

Don't forget that high quality photoshop teacher he has on pay role.....

 

unfortunately, i don't give a shit if he ever returns to agt OR radio.
what used to be the best parts of the show...the first hour and the news seem to be a running commentary on the most boring people in the universe (JD and ronnie). the news is filled with commercials for ashley madison and adam and eve...certainly not middle america friendly.

 

#2 is right....

 

I think they're all overpaid, but that's just me.

How is Ryan Seacreast not on that list? I'd think he has to be one of the higest paid stars in all of Reality TV.

Kind of surprised Bill O'Reilly only makes in $15 mil off The O'Rielly Factor. It's been consistantly #1 cable news show for at least a decade. More surprised that Diane Sawyer makes even less than him. She's been around forever.

Betty White pulls in $50,000 an episode for Off Their Rockers? She's on camera for about 10 minutes each show!

Man...I really fucked up. Should have gone into show buisness. You don't even have to have talent to make boat loads of money.

 

You're right. Look at Atrie's career. Every once in a while he would make a claim about what certain shitty show biz jobs paid. For how much work it was it was insane. The royalties from his little part in Elf every year is probably a normal salary.

 

Crystal the Monkey (Animal Practice): $12,000

 

Ugh. Both Ted Danson and Elizabeth Shue need to be killed off that show, stat. They should've BEGGED Marg Helgenburger to stay.

 

I guess everyone missed THIS part of the article.

WHO'S THE NUMBER 1 JUDGE?:

Daytime/Syndication (per year)
Judy Sheindlin (Judge Judy): $45 million
Joe Brown (Judge Joe Brown): $20 million
Kelly Ripa (Live! With Kelly): $20 million
Sherri Shepherd (The View): $1.5 million
Mario Batali (The Chew): $6,000 per episode

Suck it, Howard.

Judge Judy, FTW!

 

It's sad that there are so many poor people in this world and entertaiment gives these assholes so much. I guess it's just the American way.

 

i thought you were a supposed tv ratings expert?
you spin more than howard. at least he has a reason
