The TV series, now in its tenth season after having run steadily since 2007, features Parsons as the scientifically-driven and hilariously placed Dr. Cooper, which has earned him a position in the top four spots in Forbes’ list of highest-paid TV actors.


Parsons, 43, leads the way in the listing with a $25.5 million pay packet from 1 June 2015 to the same date in 2016. Meanwhile, his co-stars Johnny Galecki, Simon Helberg, and Kunal Nayyar took the next three spots, netting $24 million, $22.5 million, and $22 million, respectively. 


Kaley Cuoco, 30, wasn’t far off Parsons, either, with $24.5 million, ranking her the second highest-paid actress on the show.
