This is actually more than I know, but my guess is that Mike Rowe is probably producer as well as star of his show, which would mean he gets all that's left after he pays off his crew...so the real question I want to know is how much does he have to pay the cameraman who has to follow him into whatever pool of excrement he gets himself into on a given night...

I didn't think I would care to watch when I first heard about it, but his humor & willingness to tackle whatever shit jobs people hand him makes for some pretty funny TV...
