The Last Of Us Might Just Be HBO's Most Expensive Show Ever

“This project well exceeds the eight figure per episode mark,” Petti says, “so there is a multiplier effect on our economy in terms of its impact. There are hundreds of related businesses benefitting from the plethora of work.”
A budget this large will place the series high up on the list of most expensive television shows ever made, among fellow HBO productions like Game Of Thrones and The Pacific, as well as recent Disney+ series like The Mandalorian. By its eighth season, Game Of Thrones’ budget had moved from $10 million per episode to upwards of $15 million, dropping major bucks on battle scenes and animating those dragons. Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks helmed the 2010 miniseries The Pacific for HBO, with a combined budget of $200 million. The series leveled out at $20 million per episode to create the perfect WWII battle scenes.

I'll be shocked if it's good.

These studios are spending some serious money on these shows, there is a bit of an arms race.
For instance, it just came out that Amazon's Wheel of Time adaptation (which already started filming Season 2 yesterday before Season 1 even has an announced release date), the budget is likely over 100 million for 8 episodes, so over 12 million an episode.
That isn't even mentioning their LotR TV show which will easily be the most expensive TV series ever produced.

There's almost nothing more of a lock now than HBO creating a shitty show.

The best show on tv is presently on hbo and it’s really just coming out of its infancy.

Expect no more than two seasons, then. Carnivale and Rome know what time it is.

This is like saying there’s almost nothing more of a lock now than Bama losing 8 games

Great idea HBO.

I would LOVE to see the Succession and Marvel Vinn diagram.

Out of curiosity, if you think everything on HBO sucks, what do you think are the best shows on tv right now?
Posted on 7/20/21 at 5:29 pm to TotesMcGotes

Sounds like someone is triggered over a show based on a game they know nothing about
