R10 - he starred and was executive producer on The King Of Queens. It was on the air for 9 years, over 200 episodes. It runs in syndication.
He was also in a bunch of movies; he may have done profit participation.
Plus, you really don't hear stories of him buying planes or $20 million mansions.
Not sure if $80 million is correct but it may not be out of the question if he keeps his costs low.

It will be curious to see how they address her character's departure, since it's basically a family sitcom.
To answer a question from upthread, Remini played his former partner in the final two episodes of the season. He was brought back on the force temporarily to work an undercover job with her that they'd started before he retired.

She didn't buy anything. Her family lives in LA and every three weeks she flew back for a week. She was "Hollywood Live" few months ago and said they MAY move east if the show takes off but she has young kids in school and probably wait. The show is the first to shoot directly on Long Island where Kevin is from, he moved home. No world if Leah is getting out of LA for NY , she's from Brooklyn or do the commute.
