Just stumpled upon news, that Charlie Sheen could make up to 100 millions from reruns of Two and a Half Men, depending how good his initial contract was. If Warner Bros. is able to harvest around $4 million an episode for Two and a Half Men in domestic syndication alone, media analysts estimate that Sheen, as the show's leading man, stands to gain approximately half a million per episode. Depending on how his contract was structured, Sheen could expect a revenue stream of around $88.5 million annually from reruns. Thats crazy! You manage to star one hit show and ur set for life.
Lets take another example: the hit comedy Seinfeld finished its run 12 years ago and has made nearly $3 billion through syndication since. While exact figures have not been released, Forbes estimates that the lead actor Jerry Seinfeld brings in between $65 million to $80 million annually from reruns. Holy fucking shit! You get paid doing nothing but smoking cigars, well in Charlies case cocaine, but how sweet is that? You all can add up, how much Jerry has got paid in all these years. Yeah, it makes you hate your current job, doesn't it?
Fuck this shit, i'm becoming an actor.
