Wow, that is crazy, big money.

I don't watch any of those shows.

There are many other professions that deserve high-paying wages but don't even

come close to the amount actors are making. Like I said, this is crazy.

I find it quite amusing that somebody would defend these actors/actresses making so much money but will be quick to slam a person who has worked his/her tookus off to build a successful business. 

As far as the unemployed actors/actresses, that is their choice.  There are only so many roles and only so much real talent.  Face it-not everyone seeking fame and fortune in TV/movies are competent in the field of acting.

If one chooses to be unemployed while seeking the big break, that's a choice.

 While I think $45 mil for anyone is way over the top, I don't run the show.  As long as they pay their taxes and don't skip out to live in Switzerland to avoid paying their fair shares, the rest is just a *shrug*.

Ditto .... it's been the family business for the past 20+ years.

I would think Steve Harvey would be the highest paid!!!  Family Feud is on continuously and he has his other show. . .

These salaries aren't based on just what they "do for a living".  Top actors often get percentage points of the shows' profits.

Her 2019 salary is reported to be $28million.  Good for her.
