That's right, a 30 second ad on the final episode will cost 1 1/2 million dollars. More than even the Super Bowl.

Well, considering this will be more watched and more overhyed than the Super Bowl (Packers vs. Broncos, awesome game by the way), it shouldn't be a surprise that it'll cost a lot more to air a commercial.
