Loretta Swit

M*A*S*H might’ve been the only show to put a comedic take on life at a military base, with Loretta Swit being an integral part of the cast. The show itself was a hugely popular series, after the release of the movie of the same name.

Even though the cast enjoyed a salary that was in the millions, royalties were far from anything substantial. Coming in at only $1.50 per episode, Swit has no choice but to continue to pursue other projects.
