Jenilee Harrison got a terrible amount of money for 3's. She got only $3,500 per episode.

I agree about Jenilee Harrison. The others were making about $25, 000 on Three's Company.

Well Genreally, actors on lower rated series, or series airing on smaller networks ( ei- wb, upn) get paid less than actors on higher rated series or series on bigger networks. like cast of a series like, Will and Grace will get paid more than the cast of say Felicity. Because W&G is on NBC, which is the biggest network and it is a higher rated show, whereas FELICITY airs on WB which is a smaller network and it only ranks in like the 100's while will and grace ranks in the top ten and twenty. Soemtimes an actor on a lower rated show gets more only because of the network they are on, like take this, in 1998 the cast of Suddenly Susan was getting more than the cast of Dawsons Creek, not because of ratings but because of the fact that they were on NBC. even though DC and Caroline generally got around the same ratings. and lastly sometime an actor gets paid more just because of who they are, like take this in 1992 when Heather Lockelear came to Melrose Place she was getting paid more money than the entire cast of Seinfeild comined, only because she was a bigger name, althoug of course the tables turned when in 1995 the SEINFEILD cast became the highest paid cast in history, only to be outdone few weeks later by the FRIENDS cast. hope this helps.

Oh I know one! It's my fave actor Bob Denver. When he was getting started in The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis, playing Maynard he got $250 an episode. The year was like 1959. Later I think he got much more but not like how people get paid today. On Gilligan's Island I'm not real sure how much he got paid but I think it's more than he got paid to play Maynard in The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis. But he liked acting so he didn't really care so much about the money, well maybe the money when he needs it because he had to help is family, his wife was a writer and he also had a stepson, a son and a daughter.
