Ever Wondered How Much Actors Really Earn For Their Reruns?

These days you can't flip through the television channels without seeing a rerun of The Big Bang or Grey's Anatomy it seems, but how much do actors really make off of reruns? Find out in our quick cheat sheet.

Ed O’Neill, Married With Children

Earnings Per Year: $10 Million
Ran From: 1987-1997
Seasons: 11

Before Ed O'Neill was Jay in Modern Family, he was Al Bundy on Married with Children. The shows couldn't be more polar opposites, but even in his role as a lazy dad Ed probably doesn't regret the ten million residual check he gets each year just for reruns. That's enough to make his role on such a white trash show worth it.

Kelsey Grammer, Frasier

Earnings Per Year: $13 Million
Ran From: 1993-2004
Seasons: 11

Frasier was a spin-off of Cheers, but even though his character was part of the ensemble cast on Cheers it was Frasier that helped Kelsey Grammar rocket to fame. To this day Frasier is still his most recognizable role as the neurotic psychiatrist who really needed his own personal psych. Today the show earns him up to $13 million a year in residual checks.

Ray Romano, Everybody Loves Raymond

Earnings Per Year: $18 Million
Ran From: 1996-2005
Seasons: 9

Ray Romano got his start as a stand-up comedian and is still known for his comedy shows, but it was his role on Everybody Loves Raymond that made him a household name. While there was nothing remarkable about Ray in any way, he was a character that every single family could relate to. His breakout role earns him as much as $18 million per year.
