Shows like Law & Order or NCIS run about 2 mill an episode v. under a mill for most reality shows. Not just cast, but less writers, sets, etc. The thing is L&O will be run a hundred times, most reality shows only get one showing.

It's not even in the same arena compared to what Captain Sully and his flight crew did for their passengers.

I could see it being half a million, but not sure what I'm using to get to that, I mean it's not like they recruit these reality stars based on their talents.

heard from someone in a hotel van who had flown with him; He's a complete douchenozzle, and wears long white gloves while flying to make sure that no sun actually touches his arms.
True story, my cousin heard from her friend that he totally passed out at the 7-11 last night
