Cast Of Roseanne: How Much Are They Worth Now?
Published on February 24, 2016. Updated May 1, 2019There is still nothing like ’90s television. The decade had a ton of amazing family shows, with just enough inappropriate or at the very least real humor to appeal to everyone from parents to their children. One of the shows that nailed the realism of a working-class family was Roseanne. With a mix of talented new and veteran actors, the show enjoyed a successful nine season run from 1988-1997. Since it has been so long since the cast starred together, and they have moved on to other things, check out how much the cast of Roseanne is worth now!
9. Sarah Chalke
Estimated Net Worth: $14 Million. Sarah Chalke stepped into Roseanne as Becky Conner after Alicia Goranson’s school schedule became too much to handle along with the role. Although switching an actor or actress in the midst of a show is always difficult, Chalke pulled it off and has enjoyed a successful acting career since. She was in the Canadian series Nothing Too Good for a Cowboy for a year and enjoyed major success on Scrubs from 2001-2010, and became a recurring character on the hit show How I Met Your Mother as Stella Zinman from 2008-2014. Her continued work has added up to a very respectable net worth of $14 million.

Estimated Net Worth: $400 Thousand. Natalie West was a recurring character on Roseanne as Crystal Anderson, who ends up marrying Dan Conner’s father, Ed. West appeared in 84 episodes from 1988-1995; however, her acting career never really took off. She only has 8 acting credits to her name which include small roles in lesser-known films and was most recently in an episode of Under Covers. As a result, she is only worth an estimated $400 thousand.
7. Johnny Galecki
Estimated Net Worth: $50 Million. Johnny Galecki began his career as a stage actor before moving on-screen with TV movies and landed roles in the series American Dreamer and Billy. In 1992 he landed the role of David Healy on Roseanne as the boyfriend and eventual husband to Sara Gilbert’s character, Darlene. After the show he went on to have roles in Suicide Kings, I Know What You Did Last Summer, Bounce and several small TV roles before landing the lead role of Leonard Hofstadter on The Big Bang Theory. He now has a very impressive net worth of $50 million, thanks in large part to his $1 million per episode salary he has to star on The Big Bang Theory.

She has since only appeared in a few indie and short projects and has an estimated net worth of $1.5 million.

Estimated Net Worth: $8 Million. Michael Fishman’s first ever acting role was as D.J. Conner on Roseanne and he remained in the role for the entire nine years, growing up in front of audience’s eyes. He then offered his voice for different animated shows, but for the most part, he has stepped back from acting.
