[QUOTE="Lastkidpicked, post: 94874, member: 237"] A little history for you good folks who might be too young to remember: In the 1990's, the cast of [I]Friends[/I] astonished the entertainment history by breaking a salary record. They negotiated for $ 100,000 per episode. People just couldn't believe it. A hundred thousand dollars per episode? That much money was unheard of, even in the heyday of the Nineties. Broke every record? That was unheard of? Hmmmm. . . Larry Hagman renegotiated his contract during the summer of "Who Shot J.R.?" Life imitating art, he knew he held all the cards and went all in. He negotiated a $ 100,000 per episode salary. And that was in 1980 dollars! In a 2012 interview, he might be ailing but he still has that glint in his eye as he says, "I think all the kids who are in [I]Friends[/I] owe me ten percent of what they got, because I established it could be done." J.R. would have been proud! [/QUOTE]
