Judge Judy has 2.4 million viewers and is paid $45 million. I don’t get it.

How many judge Judy episodes per year?

Sorry, meat to post that in Google Search.

JJ works 52 days a year. It is reported she makes $900,000
per episode. The production cost is nominal.
A lot more TV Shows with the same relative viewers pay a lot
more in production cost and actor salaries.

For example, Fear The Walking Dead had a viewership per episode
of about 2.5 million. But the production costs is a lot more.
