Forbes 2014 TV Top Earning Actors: Ashton Kutcher Rules the List Again

The "Two and a Half Men" star tops the list again of Forbes' highest paid television actor for the third time in a row. The soon-to-be father who is expecting his first child with fiancée Mila Kunis has another great reason to celebrate. With estimated earnings of $26 million from June 2013 to June this year, it's no surprise that the 36-year-old actor, investor and producer Ashton Kutcher continues his supremacy with this year's list. Adding to this is his multi-year contract with Lenovo as a product engineer.

Kutcher, who is a former model before venturing into the acting world, is known for his various television portrayals as Michael Kelso in the Fox sitcom "That '70s Show" for seasons 1 to 7 and a recurring guest in season 8; "Just Shoot Me" as Dean Cassidy in 2001; "Grounded for Life" as Scott in 2002; "Robot Chicken" in a voice role in 2005; "Miss Guided" in 2008; as the creator, host and producer in MTV's "Punk'd;" as Eric in last year's "Men at Work;" and most currently as Walden Schmidt in "Two and a Half Men" starting from 2011 after replacing Michael Sheen in the role.

Rounding up the top 10 highest-earning TV actors this year are Jon Cryer and Mark Harmon ($19 million), Neil Patrick Harris ($18 million), Patrick Dempsey and Kevin Spacey ($16 million), Tim Allen ($15 million), Simon Baker ($13 million), Jim Parsons ($12 million), Jason Segel and Johnny Galecki ($11 million) and Jon Hamm ($10 million).
