Modern Family What Were The Characters Salaries In The Final Season

It’s hard to believe that Modern Family is wrapping up in 2020. After 11 seasons and well over 200 episodes, the show has been a standout for ABC, launching the careers for many of its stars. In fact, Sarah Hyland, Airel Winter, Nolan Gould, Rico Rodriguez, and Aubrey Anderson-Emmons were all kids when the show first took off in 2013 and now, they’re all young adults and adults. Time sure does fly when we’re following the Pritchett-Delgados, Dunphys, and Pritchett-Tuckers.

With the show doing as well as it is (it did win 22 Emmy Awards, after all!), the cast and crew received huge paydays over the years. The more success the show brought, the more money these actors and actresses made. Over the course of 11 seasons, let’s take a look at how much the main cast made in their final season.

10 Rico Rodriguez: $125,000 An Episode
