David Hyde Pierce – $750,000
Niles Craine, portrayed by David Hyde Pierce, made for a great foil to Frasier Craine, who was played by Kelsey Grammer. Pierce once said that his psychiatrist character is “what Frasier would be if he had never gone to Boston and never been exposed to the people at Cheers.” Even though he did not make as much as his on-screen brother, the actor still got paid $750,000 per episode of the show. On top of that, he also got a lot of accolades for his performance in that role.
Charlie Sheen – $1.8 Million
There was a point in time in which Charlie Sheen was the highest-paid actor! This was the time that he signed a contract that paid him a stunning $1.8 million for playing Charlie Harper in Two and a Half Men. However, he messed it up when he had a public meltdown. The producers decided to end things with him as he went to rehab. Even though he still made a huge fortune over the years, we are not sure if his reputation will ever be redeemed.
