The half-man in Two And A Half Men now making as much per episode as many a man

Today is Angus T. Jones' birthday, and what better way to celebrate than for TMZ to learn that the 17-year-old costar of Two And A Half Men has inked a new contract. He's now banking $300,000 per episode (plus a $500,000 signing bonus), and the deal's good for one, maybe two more seasons. Thus Jones has become the highest paid child actor on television—take that, iCarly!—and even earns more per episode than Steve Carell, Jon Hamm, and Julianna Margulies. Meanwhile, Manny from Modern Family must survive on only five linen suits.

But don't worry, folks, all that money's not going to ruin the Angus T. Jones you love:
