If the phrase "Charlie Sheen money" calls to mind his reported $350,000 per episode Two and a Half Men salary as readily as it might the escort-related expenditures of his infamously priapic, cheerleader-devouring bachelorhood, chances are you have already had ample opportunity to be disgusted by the excessive remuneration of your favorite TV personalities. But for those of you prepared to be appalled anew, a press release has compiled a list of boob-tube salaries that will be included in a more comprehensive accounting in the upcoming issue of TV Guide. Such as:

· OPRAH: $260 million per year (includes what she earns from Rachael Ray, Dr. Phil, and other programs) · SIMON COWELL: $45 million per year (for American Idol and other projects) · JUDGE JUDY: $30 million per year · KATIE COURIC: $15 million per year · ZACH BRAFF: $6.3 million (for 18 episodes of Scrubs next season)

After the jump, more lists of the staggering sums being lavished upon the stars of popular sitcoms, widely franchised police procedurals, and daytime perversions of small-claims-court justice. Enjoy:
