Getting Lost Is Costly!

Wow! They must anticipate quite a turn out of this one!

In May, the series finale of Lost will air and six years of questions will finally hopefully be answered.

Anticipating that many of the fallen followers will undoubtedly return to the series to see how it all ends, along with the millions of viewers still dedicated weekly to the series, ABC’s marketing department has released the price tag for a 30-second spot during Lost’s final hours.

$900,000!

Wow! That seems astronomical!

But then again, not so much, as in this digital age of DVRs and Hulu, it is much harder to garner eyeballs to actually watch commercials anymore. That is why advertisers are eager to buy time during “event television” such as the Oscars, the Super Bowl, and the ending of an era of television.

So, while that smoke monster thing is twirling the island into a new dimension (or whatever the hell they are going to do, we’ve never watched the show so we wouldn’t know!), there are going to have some pretty heavy hitting commercials airing right along with it!

Thoughts on this Losties?
