UNDATED (CNN) -- Ashton Kutcher's move to "Two and a Half Men" is paying off. Kutcher tops Forbes' list of highest-paid TV actors.

The star made an estimated $24 million between May 2011 and 2012.

That's nowhere near the $40 million Charlie Sheen made on the same show the year before.

Former "House" star Hugh Laurie was second with $18 million.

Ray Romano, with the help of syndication also earned an estimated $18 million.
