TV’s top earners!

holy paycheck!

you may or may not want to know the results of TV guide’s annual salary survey, as it just might make ya sick.

two and half men star charlie sheen is rolling in the dough at $1.25 million an episode. yes, an episode. can you imagine? ‘alright, everyone, that’s a wrap…’ and BOOM you’re $1.25 million dollars richer.

another surprise – kate plus 8 star kate gosselin brings in $250,00 an episode. can i have that job please?! other high income earners include house‘s hugh laurie at $400,000/episode and the late-night crew david letterman, jay leno and conan o’brien who bring in $28, $25 and $10 million dollars respectively.

but these salaries all PALE in comparison to ms. oprah winfrey. the TV queen makes $315 million/year. no wonder she gives out cars and vacations all the time. no one needs that kinda dough all to themselves!

remakin’ laverne & shirley

who knew? apparently jennifer garner & jessica biel are a couple of bff’s! enough to dive into a movie project together: the movie remake of 70′s classic tv show laverne & shirley.

romantic comedy guru director garry marshall is the brains behind the operation, with a fairly unlikely screenwritin’ partner – jamie foxx! marshall tells tv guide mag:

“jamie and i are trying to do it. he’s writing it. it’s a whole different modern take on how they came up on the streets during difficult times. laverne would be this very tough girl with a big ‘L’ tattooed on her arm. jennifer garner would play laverne and jessica biel would play shirley.”

wait, what? i can totally picture a cute best friend-ish movie with these two lovely ladies, but what’s all this about growin’ up in the streets, mr. director? i’m quite curious to see how this pans out!
