Forbes rolled out its highest-earning actresses on television

While most of the actresses don't surprise on the full list of 20, there are a significant amount of reality TV stars who did make the cut. 

Sofia Vergara topped the list with her many film roles and television prowess on the award-sweeping "Modern Family."

We've plucked the top ten filled with Kardashians, "Desperate Housewives," and a three-way tie for eighth place.

10. Ellen Pompeo: $9 million

Eight seasons of "Grey's Anatomy" has paid off for Meredith Grey. According to Forbes, the actress was earning an estimated $275,000 per episode. (Estimates on IMDB mark this figure a bit lower at an estimated $200,000 per episode since 2005.)

However, the doctor is doing more than scrubbing in on routine surgeries. Pompeo launched production company, Calamity Jane, last year. The company has already sold an untitled project to ABC.



9. Felicity Huffman – $9 million

It pays to be "desperate." Though a long nine years on Wisteria Lane have come to an end on "Desperate Housewives," Huffman is leaving with a pretty paycheck

In the past year, the actress also worked on ad campaigns, including one for "Got Milk" with husband William H. Macy



8. Zooey Deschannel: $9 million

Deschannel's adorkable spirit won over fans on Fox's "New Girl." The show was among the first of its season to easily get renewed

When not playing bubbly naive Jess on Fox, the girl stays busy with website hellogiggles.com, commercial deals (check her out in this iPhone ad), and new original web series, "The Single Life."
