'Friends' cast members continue to rake in $20 million each per year, 14 years after sitcom last aired

While 'Friends' has been off the air for close to 15 years, its cast members are continuing to rake in the benefits thanks to its immense popularity.
UPDATED DEC 31, 2018

This coming September will mark 25 years since the airing of the pilot episode of 'Friends'  titled 'The Pilot' on NBC. Executive produced by Kevin S. Bright, Marta Kauffman, and David Crane in association with Warner Bros. Television, and featuring characters that are now immortalized in TV folklore, the sitcom would prove to be one of the most popular television shows of all time, with the reruns still going strong.

'Friends' featured an ensemble cast starring Jennifer Aniston (Rachel Green), Courteney Cox (Monica Geller), Lisa Kudrow (Phoebe Buffay), Matt LeBlanc (Joey Tribbiani), Matthew Perry (Chandler Bing), and David Schwimmer (Ross Geller), each of whom is still fondly remembered for their roles and have become quite synonymous with their characters, and who were all generously compensated, at least in the later seasons.
