　　想要低成本制作出一部热门剧并不是件容易事，事实上，有些最受欢迎的剧集同时也是制作费用最高的。电视台每制作一集要花费数百万在演员、布景和美景上。以下是七部史上制作费用最高的剧集：

　　《老友记》(Friends)1000万美元/每集

　　Monica, Rachel, Phoebe, Joey, Chandler, and Ross helped Friends achieve ten years of TV success. Running from 1994 to 2004, many of the scenes were set in a coffee shop and the characters’ apartments. So what exactly made this popular TV show so expensive? The cast.

　　As viewers tuned in year after year, many grew fond of the six friends and the amazing chemistry they had together. FinancesOnline.com writes that as the cast became increasingly popular, the actors started to ask for more money. During the third season, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry, and David Schwimmer rallied together to ensure they received fair pay. By the time the final season rolled around, the cast members were each making $1 million per episode, causing the show’s budget to skyrocket to $10 million per episode.

　　《老友记》从1994-2004辉煌了十年。剧中许多场景都是在咖啡店和公寓里完成的，那么这部剧的制作费为什么会这么高呢?答案在于演员的片酬高。年复一年，观众们渐渐喜欢上了这六个角色，爱上了他们之间的化学反应。而随着演员们变得越来越出名，他们的片酬也水涨船高。在第三季，六位主演联合起来要求加薪，而到了最后一季，每位主演的片酬高达100万/集，使该剧每集的成本达到1000万/集。

　　《罗马》(Rome)900万美元/集

　　HBO really outdid itself with Rome. The historical drama, which ran from 2005 to 2007, told the story of the lives of both illustrious and ordinary Romans. To depict an accurate and engaging picture of what it took for one to survive in Roman times, HBO used elaborate costumes and very detailed set designs, resulting in a $9 million per episode budget, according to The Richest. While the outrageous budget allowed HBO to add in exquisite scenery and details, it was also the show’s downfall.

　　Entertainment Weekly writes that HBO executives decided to ax the well-received show in order to save money on maintaining production resources in Italy. “Just like many of the other shows in the same class, it’s a show that ended early rather than got strung out and had the juice squeezed out of it,” show creator Bruno Heller tells Entertainment Weekly. “It ended for reasons other than running out of things to say. I loved it. I thought it was a great show. There’s a sense that there’s unfinished business.”

　　该剧讲述了罗马人的辉煌生活，为了准确还原当时的罗马时代，HBO台使用了华丽的服装和非常细节的场景设计，导致每集预算高达900万，这也是剧集衰败的原因之一。HBO为了节省开支而砍掉了《罗马》，事实上剧情还可以继续。

　　《权力的游戏》(Game of Thrones)600万美元/集

　　HBO’s Game of Thrones costs about $6 million per episode, E reports, with the network spending between $5 million and $10 million on the pilot episode alone. As with the majority of HBO hits, the staggering budget isn’t focused on its cast, but rather the beautiful and massive sets used, in addition to the elaborate shooting locations, according to Liberty Voice.

　　The unbelievably popular show is based on George R.R. Martin’s best selling series, A Song of Ice and Fire. According to the HBO description, “Summers span decades. Winters can last a lifetime. And the struggle for the Iron Throne has begun. It will stretch from the south, where heat breeds plots, lusts, and intrigues; to the vast and savage eastern lands; all the way to the frozen north, where an 800-foot wall of ice protects the kingdom from the dark forces that lie beyond. Kings and queens, knights and renegades, liars, lords, and honest men … all will play the Game of Thrones.”

　　《权力的游戏》每集的制作费用约600万，但试播集花费了500-1000万。像大多数HBO剧一样，预算并没花在演员身上，而是在于精美宏大的布景和美丽的拍摄地点。该剧根据乔治·马丁(George R.R. Martin)的畅销书《冰与火之歌》(ASong of Ice and Fire)改编。

　　《大西洋帝国》(Boardwalk Empire)：500万美元/集

　　该剧一集的花费超过500万，需要拍摄15天。曾有报道称剧中的主要布景设在布鲁克林的停车场，花费200万搭建而成。而试播集的制作成本甚至达到了1800万。该剧第五季也是最后一季于去年9月开播。

　　HBO has spared no expense on Boardwalk Empire. Each episode costs more than $5 million to make, thanks to the lavish production details, and takes about 15 days to film. USA Today reports that the show’s elaborate boardwalk set, which was built in a Brooklyn parking lot, cost an unbelievable $2 million. Additionally, theBoardwalk Empire pilot reportedly cost $18 million to produce.　　The hit show takes place during the Prohibition era and chronicles the life of Nucky Thompson, a bootlegger who is part politician, part gangster, and sole ruler of Atlantic City. The show’s fifth and final season will air on September

　　《朽木》(Deadwood)：450万美元/集

　　HBO台几乎承包了这份榜单。　该剧将真实事件与虚构元素相结合，打造了一条引人入胜的故事线，与之相配的是庞大的卡司阵容和宏大的西部场景。此外，马匹、马车、牲畜和鳄鱼也增加了制作成本。2005年，《朽木》获得了五座艾美奖，证明高预算物有所值。然而，过高的预算也成为了HBO的负担，最终成为剧集没落的导火索。

　　《迷失》(Lost)：400万美元/集

　　福克斯台的《迷离档案》的试播集花了1000万制作费，每集预算约400万。该剧开局强势，但收视率日益挣扎。而且剧情较为复杂，有时甚至难以理解，如果中间漏看了一集的话更是如此。福克斯总裁在2012年接受采访时称该剧制作昂贵却收益不佳。《迷失》的高预算主要是因为演员人数过多，包括70位成年人和一条狗，再加上在瓦胡岛和夏威夷拍摄。
