Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen were making $80,000 per episode by the time “Full House” went off the air, according to The Washington Post. Although it would’ve been nice if the twins were making this amount from the very first episode, their salaries matured as the show’s popularity flourished. But even if they only made $80,000 an episode for the final season, which consisted of 24 episodes, that added up to $1.92 million per twin. Even a fraction of that across eight years would’ve wielded a nice sum for the young actors.

However, according to TMZ, the twins were only paid $1,650 per episode of “Full House” during the early years. The outlet also shadily pointed out that the child actors from “Fuller House” started out making considerably more than the twins, between $10,000 and $15,000 per episode, when the show premiered. Adjusted for inflation, it’s possible that the new generation of Tanner kids wasn’t really making that much more than Mary-Kate and Ashley did, but it’s not a competition.
