Long TV's most expensive program for advertisers, "American Idol" is now neck-and-neck with NBC's "Sunday Night Football" as the costliest prime-time show on this year's schedule, according to Advertising Age's annual survey of the costs of running a 30-second commercial in prime time. The average cost of running a 30-second ad in "Idol" runs between $468,100 and $502,900, according to the Ad Age survey, while the average cost of a 30-second ad in NBC's much-watched football contest is $512,367.

$500,000 per 30 seconds ad is why Simon Cowell was paid something like $50 million a year when he was a judge on Idol.
