HBO owns HBO, they dont have to pay for airtime!

You knOw what I mean. Its still 15 minutes they could use to promote something else.

I guess i'm wrong. I couldn't find anything that measured the cost of airing a show in primetime on HBO. Even if I did if it costs $1 mil to produce one show in one of the hour dramas it probably doesn't cost that much to produce "2 days"

Produce and air. I'm pretty sure 15 m ins of HBO primetime is exspensive. I'm also pretty sure it takes more than a couple hoursseeing that they show it a month or two after the fight.

it's part of their programming not advertising. you don't put an amount for that because it's hbo who will benefit from it and not some product endorsement by other companies.

fair point. I compared it to advertising dollars which was wrong.
