Why would John Goodman

Recommended Posts

Come back to Roseanne? I mean, it's not even close. He is Far and Away the most successful actor coming from a TV series since probably George Clooney. Incredibly well-respected. A fantastic CV, and he goes back to that unfunny subpar show with that untalented subhuman bich? What the fuk is he thinking? Certainly doesn't seem like the kind of guy who has a ton of alimony to pay. I really hope to God somebody asks him that question in the next few weeks.

It might have been unfunny, but it was a juggernaut in the ratings for a long time...

I'd say it's Jen Aniston, and it's not even close.

Yea theres many many successful people to come out of TV shows. To say its far and away Goodman is sort of silly. How are we measuring success here? Fame? Money earned? Combo of both? Goodman might not even make top 20.

My apologies, I was counting her as an Actor in general.......... You may be right as far as male actor.

And say you're ###### wrong.

Aniston was making upwards of $20m, per movie........ Even now she's still banking at about $16m per movie.

 

Goodman is a distant, distant - 3rd, maybe.

Aniston and all the friends make 20mil a year just from friends syndication royalties alone.

Aniston's net worth is around $200 million, Goodman $65 million... Not even close...

I do love Goodman, he’s one of my fave actors to come from a TV show beginning that’s for sure. But the inflated salaries and exposure people get today is so much more than back then it’s hard to compare.

I thought they killed his charachter off ? I didn't watch the show. I was too busy fighting and having sex back then.

Right now, you could make a case for Chris Pratt coming from Parks & Recreation

Good one. Cranston comes to mind as well from Malcolm in the middle.

They did, but they are retconning that and just forgetting it happened. They even poke fun at it a bit in the promos.

Oh well, this is stupid. And actually makes my point for me. The friends star's only go she ate it. The highest salaries in the history of television at the time. A million dollars and episode. That piece of Roseanne couldn't negotiate anything close to that.

 

And when was the last time you saw that piece of show in syndication? Meanwhile, you can't go 5 minutes on television without finding a rerun of friends.

 

Do you honestly think there is a single serious actor or reviewer out there who puts Jennifer Aniston in the same category as John Goodman for Christ's sake?

 

Granted, she has some of the best legs of any broad in Hollywood. But she couldn't act out pain if her were on fire.

Trunp was on TV as well. Now he is running the nation.

Was a famous business tycoon before apprentice. They have to have gotten their big break on a tv show to qualify.

Maybe we're all on different pages as far as defining "successful".

 

In terms of impactful, defining roles - Goodman has an argument.. Nobody has ever confused Aniston for a great actress - great ass, great body, want-to-fock for sure, but she's no Meryl Streep.

 

But no question she's been more financially successful than Goodman - or pretty much any other former TV actor.

Wiffle lost yet another thread...

Yeah, not even close.

 

I like the mention of Cranston, but he got started too late. And his stint on the Power Rangers ain't making the case either. still, shitload better actor than Aniston. Has she ever headlined a film?

 

yet another reason the whole salary disparity thing is such turd bullshit.

Even those Big Bang theory get a million an episode I think. Including Gallecki who was also on Roseanne. Salaries are just inflated everywhere on tv. Look at nfl QBs. Highest paid players ever are garropallo, Carr, cousins soon and Stafford? A joke.
