Anderson’s eldest son, Brandon Lee, was a producer on the Netflix documentary.
Lee said earlier this week his mother was grossly underpaid during her time at Baywatch, a staple of ’90s pop culture, as she only makes $4,000 a year from leftovers.
“If I go back and even look at past deals and residual checks, people would be shocked to find out how people really took advantage of them,” Lee Extra said at Netflix’s Tudum Theater in Hollywood, Calif., at the documentary’s premiere on Monday .
He described his mother – who played the role of CJ Parker in 110 episodes of the syndicated series from 1992 to 1997 – as “a young girl who got a bad deal on a big show, and she was the biggest star at the time.”
He continued, “A lot of people have made a lot of money from this, people are going to have their day when we come knocking… if she’s making $4,000 a year off Baywatch? This is a crime.’
Anderson was a cast breakout star on the beach series, which also starred David Hasselhoff, Yasmine Bleeth, David Charvet, Gena Lee Nolin, Nicole Eggert, Donna D’Errico and, in later years, Jason Momoa.
According to a 2019 article published by Yahoo, the $4,000 annual residual rate pales in comparison to many of Anderson’s contemporaries who have appeared on hit shows that went to syndication.
The six leads of “Friends” — Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer, Courteney Cox, Matthew Perry and Matt LeBlanc — make $20 million a year on a deal that earns them $2 each, according to a 2015 USA Today report yielded percent of residuals .
