'Married... with Children' star Ted McGinley reveals he gets penny residual checks from his hit TV shows 31.05.2026

Fox News

Ted McGinley, known for his roles in "Married... with Children," "Happy Days," and "The Love Boat," recently revealed that he continues to receive residual checks for his work on these hit television shows, though the amounts are now as low as one penny per check. He has accumulated a "whole stack" of these minimal payments, estimating his total earnings from them to be around $2, and he keeps them without cashing them. McGinley's experience echoes that of other actors, like Jodie Sweetin from "Full House," who has also reported receiving one-cent checks. The decline in significant residual payments is attributed to the shift towards streaming, where traditional syndication models are less prevalent, impacting how actors are compensated for their past performances.
