TV's Highest Paid Stars: Judge Judy

From the August 21, 2013, Parade Magazine "Who Are the Highest-Paid TV Stars?" by Vi-an Nguyen from TV Guide.

Not only can she cut down a person, but also, Judy Sheindin "Judge Judy" earns a lot of dough for doing so: $47 million a year. Then, there's Jon Stewart whose "The Daily Show" earns $20 to $25 million a year, even more than Jay Leno and David Letterman who get $20 million each for doing their shows.

Jimmy Kimmel gets $10 million.

Other types of shows were listed, but I will just do the top threes of comedy and drama.

COMEDY (per episode): Ashton Kutcher "Two and a Half Men," $750,000; Jason Segel "How I Met Your Mother," $225,000 and Amy Poehler "Parks and Recreation," $200,000.

DRAMA (per episode): Mark Harmon (NCIS) $525,000 + points; Clair Danes (Homeland) $250,000 and Michael Weatherly (NCIS) $250,000.

And, You'd Think Ducky Would Earn More. --RoadDog
