I'm saying it's obscene that this is even offered to him.Why? If the show, crappy though it might be, generates enormous revenue, shouldn't the star and originator get a big share of the profits?
As long as people watch, the money will roll in.
Does his $1.7/$1.8 million per episode...Doesn't it come out to $2.27 million ($50 million divided by 22 episodes)?
I wonder how much the rest of the cast will get. I think Ray's brother Robert gets more laughs than Ray (at least from me).
I think Ray's brother Robert gets more laughs than Ray (at least from me).I think every cast member gets more laughs than Ray Romano (similar to other sitcoms where the supporting cast is funnier and more likeable than the star(s)). I like the show, but hate him.
I think they should have let him go, if he wanted to leave, and just continued with the rest of the cast. It would definitely have been less annoying without having to listen to his nasal whine all the time.
They actually reached a 2-year deal on the series, but only 1-year with RR. So perhaps we'll find out what it is like without him if he doesn't re-up next year.
