Morena Baccarin
In Gotham, Morena Baccarin brought Dr. Leslie Thompkins to life. Her origin story is also complex. The character ends up married to Jim Gordon on the TV show. Isn’t it amazing to hear that the actress is actually married to her onscreen husband in real life? She fell in love with Ben McKenzie on the set of the show! The two of them tied the knot in 2017. She brings home as much as $10,000 a year in residuals. Aside from the superhero show, she was also cast to play Vanessa in Deadpool and Inara in Firefly. As you can imagine, this makes her a legend at ComicCon. The Brazilian-American star has also appeared in TV shows like Homeland and The Mentalist.

Seth MacFarlane
Second, only to The Simpsons, Family Guy has one of the longest airtimes of any animated comedy series. At the moment, it has nineteen seasons to its name. It is the brainchild of Seth MacFarlane, who is also behind Orville and American Dad. The main stars of the show scored big raises in 2013. It does not only involve current episodes but residuals as well! They now bring home $225,000 per episode of the show and up to $400,000 in residuals each year. It is syndicated and available on streaming services. It is said that the show has since raked a total of $2 billion! Whoa.
