How Much Money Did Lisa Kudrow Make Starring on 'Friends'?

The blonde beauty and her five costars Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Matt LeBlanc, David Schwimmer and Matthew Perry famously banded together to negotiate equal salaries after the show blew up as a major hit for NBC in 1994. Ahead of their contract renewals when season 3 rolled around, each member was paid $75,000 per episode, with an increase to $85,000 an episode for season 4. Their salaries were bumped up to $100,000 for season 5 and $125,000 for season six, which put their yearly income from the show at $3.125 million.

Lisa and her cast mates really raked in the bucks when they renegotiated their new contracts ahead of season 7. For seasons 7 and 8, the six were each paid a whopping $750,000 per episode, which equaled $18 million per season. For the final two seasons of the show, they raked in $1 million per episode. That sum made Lisa, Jennifer and Courteney the highest-paid actresses ever on TV at the time.

How Much Money Does Lisa Kudrow Make in Royalties from 'Friends'?

During their contract negotiations, the cast got a small percentage of royalties from the show's syndication, which ended up being a massive windfall. Warner Bros. makes over $1 billion a year from Friends, and each cast member gets two percent of that, meaning a $20 million annual paycheck for a show that went off the air in 2004.

In 2001, she shelled out $2.4 million for a 4,396-square-foot Tudor "cottage" near Rodeo Drive. Lisa sold her stunning penthouse condo in Park City, Utah, for $3.6 million in 2017.
