    I was reading how some TV shows where a single episode costs about 1million.

    A standup comedy special, one that’s extremely really well made, can cost about $250k. Some of the more comedy cellar/small theater ones cost about $50-100k.

    Source: I asked a producer who worked on the behind-the-scenes of stand up comedy specials for HBO back in the day.
