'Lost' Series Finale to Make a Killing

03.29.10

The only thing crazier than Claire's weave on "Lost": The insane amount of money advertisers are willing to throw out for 30 seconds of airtime during the show's final episode.



According to AdAge.com, ABC has been seeking between $850,000 and $950,000 for a 30-second TV spot during the series finale -- which is just shy of the price tag for advertisements during the Oscars.

The spots for a regular episode go for an average of $213,563.

FYI -- Ad space for the "Friends" series finale cost up to $2.3 million.
