Aly gets a raise

Postby AHAS » Fri Jan 09, 2009 7:00 am

After months of negotations, Alyson and her co-stars in CBS's How I Met Your Mother were rewarded with an increase in salary of up to $120,000 per episode.

The show's producer, 20th Century Fox TV agreed to the higher salaries due to the show's consistently high ratings and strong syndication sales. Compared to other popular shows, it's not a massively huge raise, but on average, the cast will be making between two and three times what they made before the renegotiation.

The new deals are retroactive to the beginning of the season and also add another year to Aly's original seven-year contract. If the ratings remain solid, that means we could have an extra year of Aly as Lily!

Wow! Good news for Aly! Hooray!

It's always nice to have your work appreciated, but it's even better when the bosses show their appreciation at payday! :mrgreen:

I think they all deserve to get "Friends"-type money. :wink:

Is that Friends type money? What were they all getting at the end of the ten years?

Hi Ddyfad!
During the last season of "Friends", each of the six principals was receiving the sum of $1,000,000 (one million) dollars per episode. A Hollywood record that so far remains unbroken.

Granted these are hard economic times, but I think that the principals of HIMYM (especially AH) deserve more than they are getting (I'm sure that the show brings in a great deal of advertising revenue).
