$195M spent on a TV series

In the weeks before the inauguration ("coronation" to my left-leaning readers), Bush-bashers were complaining about the $40M being spent on "a party."

Now word has come that the A&E network has shelled out a record $2.5M for each of the 78 episodes of "the Sopranos." That comes out to $195M total. For a TV series. Someone please tell me where the left's outrage at that is. I'd really like to know.
