Here’s How Much the Cast of Your Favorite TV Shows Make From the Reruns

Like most artistic successes, Frasier’s came not out of planning but as a happy accident that ended up earning rave reviews. The classic sitcom’s leading role was played by Kelsey Grammer, and it ran for 11 seasons until 2004. Interestingly, his character, Dr. Frasier Crane, wasn’t featured until in the spinoff that came in the fourth season.
At the time, Grammer was just 29 years old and an emerging actor in American theater. He went on to earn $1.6 million per episode. After the successful show ended, it was only natural for rumors of a rerun to start circulating. Finally, the rerun came in 2021, with the same characters as Grammer had requested.
