It pays to be on a hot TV show!
CBS and the show producers are rewarding the cast of How I Met Your Mother with a well-earned raise.
After months of renegotiations, Neil Patrick Harris and the four other main cast mates will now be earning $90,000-$120,000 per episode.
The Hollywood Reporter says that – on average – that’s between two and three times what they made before.
Dayum!
But, it’s lower than the pay for the cast of other comedies at similar points in their runs, like NBC’s The Office
In addition to more money, the new contracts add an extra year to the actors’ original seven-year deals.
At least some people are doing well in these shit economic times!
