Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25010 | The only interesting character on BBT is Sheldon, and there is already a show about him. Every episode revolves around Sheldon, even it it appears not too. The other characters orbit him, and in doing so none of them are interesting. They're bland and stereotypical. All three of the men have the same one line zingers in every episode, directed at Sheldon. The laugh track of the show drives me crazy. It's just so overwhelming. Look at Modern Family, no laugh track at all and it did just fine. You're right, the show is running out of steam because the writers have run out of ways to make Sheldon look even more quirkier season after season. Frasier had it much better. They had a strong and diverse cast and other story lines they could pursue. They got 2 seasons just out of Niles and Daphney getting married. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Only one show produced a second actress on the list this year (Modern Family} . Mindy Kaling makes an obscene amount of money considering her TV show had very low ratings on Fox (never cracking 3 million in her 3rd season). Somehow she stayed on Fox for three years and then moved to Hulu. Sofia Vergara is still ranked #1 for the 5th year in a row. 2016 TV Actress list dated September 2016 Sofia Vergara: $43.0 million (comedy) {mostly from advertisements; Modern Family} Kaley Cuoco: $24.5 million (comedy) {mostly from sitcom TBBT} Mindy Kaling: $15 million (comedy;The Mindy Project) Ellen Pompeo: $14.5 million (drama; Grey's Anatomy ) Mariska Hargitay: $14.5 million (drama; Law & Order: SVU ) Kerry Washington: $13.5 million (drama;Scandal ) Julianna Margulies: $10.5 million (drama;The Good Wife) Julie Bowen: $10 million (comedy; Modern Family) Pauley Perrette: $9.5 million (drama;NCIS) Patricia Heaton:$8.5 million (comedy; The Middle) Emily Deschanel: $7.5 million (drama; Bones) Zooey Deschanel: $7 million (comedy; New Girl) Three new women this year (replacing Amy Poehler; Tina Fey; and Robin Wright) Stana Katic $12.0 million (light drama; Castle) Priyaka Chopra $11.0 million (drama; Quantico) Julia Louis Dreyfuss $7.5 million (comedy; VEEP) Stana has been on a modestly rated show for many years, and negotiated a great contract to do her 8th year despite only the series finale breaking 7 million viewers. Priyaka Chopra is following in Sofia Vergara's footsteps where she gets the facial recognition of being on a hit US television show, but earns all her money in endorsements. She has lucrative deals in India. JLD has been a hit now for decades, but she is only now starting to make some real money. Of course, her father is a billionaire. Taraji P. Henson will probably show up on the list by next year. |

Jennifer Lawrence felt she was overexposed so she took a little break, but she’s filming some movie with Leo DiCaprio now. Emma Stone is busy having a baby. Sandy is raising a family. It’s weird that Angelina Jolie is number 2, she hasn’t acted in a movie for a while (she does have one coming soon though). “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Sandra Bullock went past her expiration date for the amount of talent she has. In three years she'll be 60 If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Her new show, "The Flight Attendant" had production delayed because of Covid. Since TBBT ended on May 16, 2019 and The flight Attendant premiered on November 26, 2020. She may have missed a paycheck for a year. I doubt she gets $15 million in residuals, so wouldn't make the list. Modern Family ended on April 8, 2020, and Sofia Vergara has a lot of income from outside of her TV show, so she remained on top. Kaley Cuoco and Elizabeth Moss started professional work around the same time as child actors, but Kaley Cuoco became famous at a much younger age. So her net worth is over 3X as much. |
