Kiefer Sutherland will earn a whopping $225,000 per episode on his upcoming television series Touch according to this weeks issue of TV Guide Magazine.

Although that’s half the paycheck he was earning from the later seasons of 24 ($550,000 per episode), it still puts him in the top ten of highest paid actors in a television drama. Not bad at all for the very first season of a show.

Here are the top paid drama actors for those curious:

  • Hugh Laurie – House Season 8 – $700,000 per episode (up 300k from last season)
  • Mark Harmon – NCIS Season 10 – $500,000 per episode (up 125k from last season)
