Just wondering, I'm thinking about maybe going into the acting business, but either way I'd like to know what the usual salary's are. From big tv hits [e.g Malcolm in the Middle, Reba, Still Standing..] or just like small roles or low rating shows

Well if you look at some of the child stars and how much money they are makeing for a few movies is ridiculas. Harry Potter made $50 million dollars last year. Not far behind was Dakota Fanning makeing $30 million dollars last year. But don't worry I am not bashing them! They worked hard on those movies. Its just a ridiculas sum of money for a 13 year old like Dakota. lol But don't go into the business for the money. Go into the business with passion!

I had the chance to be an extra in a film for 150 bucks a day. for huge films though, you usually do not get payed to be an extra. Not sure about anything else though. All my other roles have been non paid, which is fine with me.

Union scale depending upon the length of the gig and the negotiation of the agent.
