They had agreed to extending the series but pay was a sticking point it seems
Not a bad salary it has to be said but it's made me happy..

Big Bang Theory is one of my favourite shows, but $1m per episode is ludicrous money.
That is fucking crazy.
Yes I remember the same outcry when the friends cast won an increase
to $300,000 per episode that was an hour show I believe but Big Bang is half of that
Mind you, what do world class footballers get?

I must be one of the few that don't find this funny ? Any show that uses canned laughter to tell me when it's supposed to be funny crap .. It's just a modern day friends that was crap as well
It's filmed in front of a live audience...
but to each his own.

I do like the actual Science jokes they do throw in - apparently they do have a couple of scientist on board to verify what they are saying is factual, still it is just a throw away series so being paid more then anybody else does seem a little excessive.
By the last series of Friends they were on $1 million per episode which is what the 3 main Big Bang actors are now on but for a a show half the length of Friends per episode. The last series of Friends actually cost more to make than they got back on initial ad revenue but as it's repeated across the planet so frequently the syndication payments mean the producers still make a killing.
The Big Bang cast have rather unsurprisingly had increased share of syndication rights included in the new contracts.
Friends and Big Bang Theory are both half hour shows.

Interesting read re how it's filmed and audience laughter.

Actually about 22 minutes according to the stats, not a lot but given the margin quite enough. Besides I've never subscribed to the "Never mind the quality feel the width" treatment. Of course it's way too much money but I for one am very glad the show is continuing, lets hope the standards don't drop like they did with Friends, Cheers, Roseanne et al
So long as Kaley Cuoco is in it, I'll continue to perve... erm watch it.
