While they say they're owed millions for merchandising overall, CBS, which owns the show, calculated the amount is far less -- only between $8,500 and $9,000 each, according to financial breakdowns provided to the actors' attorney.

In a statement to CNN, CBS said, "We agree that funds are owed to the actors and have been working with them for quite some time to resolve the issue."
