Charlie Sheen wants $2 Million per episode

No way, maybe the entire cast got $2.5M. Seinfeld turned down $1M an episode when he decided to call it quits.

Per the NY Times:

The executive estimated that NBC, led in the negotiations by Robert C. Wright, the network's president, and John F. Welch, the chairman and chief executive of General Electric, NBC's parent company, had offered Mr. Seinfeld about $5 million an episode to stay in production. ''Seinfeld'' produces 22 episodes a season.

''They did everything humanly possible,'' Mr. Seinfeld said, ''but money was not a factor at all. I was not even looking for a raise.''

Some reports have set Mr. Seinfeld's salary at $1 million an episode, but the executive said Mr. Seinfeld was at that figure three years ago. Mr. Seinfeld also profits from the syndication of his series. Forbes magazine put his income for last year at $94 million.

I'm pretty sure Jerry was getting $2.5 Mill/per during his last 2 seasons.

Personally, I think 2 & 1/2 men is funnier than Sienfled. JMO
