TV’s 7 Priciest Pilots

Fringe, 2008

For the first show he’d created since Lost, J.J. Abrams again spent big. The FBI sci-fi drama’s pilot cost a reported $10 million, thanks, in part, to its two-hour runtime and a pricey plot involving a flesh-eating virus wreaking havoc on an airplane. The show’s fourth season premiered on FOX last Friday.
