'Two and a Half Men's' Charlie Sheen Tops the List of TV's Richest Stars ... Again - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

According to TV Guide, CBS' “Two and a Half Men” star Charlie Sheen collects $875,000 per episode, making him the richest actor on television.

Among women, ABC's “Desperate Housewives” – Marcia Cross, Felicity Huffman, Eva Longoria Parker and Teri Hatcher -- all earn $400,000 per episode, which has them tied with the actors who supply the voices for Fox's “The Simpsons” -- Dan Castellaneta, Yeardley Smith, Harry Shearer, Nancy Cartwright and Julie Kavner.

On cable, TNT's “The Closer” star Kyra Sedgwick leads among women with $275,000 per show, just a bit more than the $250,000 Denis Leary gets for FX's “Rescue Me.”

That's kind of funny that the voice actors from The Simpsons make the same money as the live actresses from Desperate Housewives.

It's funny...because it's true.
