TV Guide has released its annual list of the TV stars who command the highest salaries and while Ashton Kutcher remains the highest paid actor in prime time, Judge Judy Sheindlin is the biggest performer overall with a $47 million per year salary. 

The list is divided up into six categories -- Drama and Comedy with salaries paid out per episode and then Reality, Late Night, News, and Daytime/Syndication with salaries being pay out annually.

Kutcher takes home $750,000 for each episode of his CBS sitcom while NCIS star Mark Harmon is the highest earner on the drama side with $525,000 plus a piece of the show's profits. 

The magazine predicts big changes in the coming year because sources are saying that Big Bang Theory stars Johnny Galecki, Jim Parson, and Kaley Cuoco are expected to seek new deals that would earn them $1 million per episode to keep their top-rated sitcom going.

In reality TV, Howard Stern leads the group with a $15 million paycheck for America's Got Talent.
Jon Stewart is the highest paid late night host earning between $25 - $30 million per year for The Daily Show.

Today Show host Matt Lauer commands $22 - $25 million making him the highest paid news anchor.
