Here’s How Much the Cast of Your Favorite TV Shows Make From the Reruns
Jackie Gleason, The Honeymooners
Seasons: 1
Final Episode Airdate: September 22, 1956
Show Residuals: $0
Unlike other sitcoms, the American television show “The Honeymooners” interestingly aired as a single season with 39 episodes over the course of one year. Audrey Meadows took all the spotlight on the show, as she was the only cast member to earn residuals from the reruns. She portrayed Alice, Ralph Kramden’s wife.
Jackie Gleason was among the cast that never received any loyalty from reruns, and even though he was paid $11 million shillings, he had to pay for all production costs with the money, including the pay for his co-stars. However, he still earned much more from the reruns of other shows.
