The Biggest Paychecks Earned By Your Favorite TV Commercial Actors

The Slingers

Recognize either of these two? A little known Hollywood fact is that the lady who starred opposite of Nick Offerman in the Sling TV commercial spot is actually his beloved wife, Megan Mullally. He and Megan portrayed an easy-going, laid-back couple and their interest in introducing fellow "slingers" to their lifestyles. 

Lost Cost

The married duo only received somewhere around $50,000 for their appearances in this ad series. This number doesn't include their image and likeness being used on the internet, radio, or print ads for Sling TV. Not even social media! Nick Offerman, famous for his Parks and Rec show, agreed to take a pay cut so he could work with his wife. He also wanted to help the Sling TV business, which had been failing before their rebranding.
