The cast of How I Met Your Mother just recently inked a deal for the whole gang to receive pay raises retroactively for season four and going forward according the The Hollywood Reporter.

After months of renegotiation, Josh Radnor, Jason Segel, Cobie Smulders, Neil Patrick Harris and Alyson Hannigan have inked a deal that will bring their salaries to between $90,000 to $120,000 per each episode.  No news on who's on the high end versus the low but we're guessing NPH on the high and Smulders on the low.

The great news for fans of How I Met Your Mother is that the renegotiated contract extends the actors' original seven year contracts to eight years.  The high rated and recently syndicated show isn't going anywhere.

The gang has much to be celebrating for and it's not just cheeseburgers.  Sorry Regis, you have no reason to celebrate.
