Maybe it will be in residuals rather than salary. Some of those stranded islanders made fortunes with all the reruns but some actors only made their basic salaries for the first airing. .

You mean Gilligans Island? None of them
made a dime from syndication, including
Dawn Wells. There was an urban legend
that her manager/husband was savvy
enough to get them for her, but she
now says there was nothing that existed
to be savvy about. The producer owned
all the rights and collected all the residuals.

If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

As a result of the jury evidence it was revealed that Howard was paid a sum of $11m from Kudrow in the 16 years he worked as her manager.
