So The Hollywood Reporter has who has re-upped, who is close to re-upping and who is still fighting for money on Grey's Anatomy.
Ellen Pompeo came out the best of them all making $200,000 an episode. Next up, Golden Globes' winner Chandra Wilson and James T Picken's Jr who will each make $125,000 an episode and T.R. Knight and Justin Chambers are expected to sign on for the same amount. Patrick Dempsey, Katherine Heigl and Sandra Oh are still in negotiations and no salary amount has been released. Isaiah Washington is not expected to get a raise, because of the new F-Word and is also still in discussions. No word on how the negotiations are going for Kate Walsh who has the potential spin-off, Eric Dane or Sarah Ramirez. The contracts are retroactive to the beginning of the season, so imagine the sweet paycheck they are about to get. Also the original cast signed a rumored 7 year deal with Touchstone, so they can negotiate all they want but they are stuck with the show.
Personally I think it is BS that Ellen Pompeo is making more than the others. Yes the show is named after her character, but it is an ensemble cast. Other shows' casts would've fought that, like Friends. I wouldn't miss her if she was gone and was kind of upset she survived the three-parter. Sorry Ellen. Anyways it will be interesting to see what will happen.
BTW is there anyway I can make a year what they make an episode?
