‘ALLY McBeal” star Calista Flockhart is returning to series TV with a guaranteed pay day of at least $800,000 for less than six weeks’ work.

Flockhart will play an Ann Coulter-like radio-talk-show host in the proposed series “Brothers and Sisters,” set for next fall.

According to the show-biz Web site TMZ, she got $200,000 just for taking the role and $100,000 an episode for a promised six episodes.

In the series, Flockhart has to leave her radio job to help run the family business with her brothers and sisters after the death of her father.

Rachel Griffiths, the mercurial Brenda from “Six Feet Under,” also stars.

Flockhart, who now lives with boyfriend Harrison Ford, has reportedly turned down several big-money offers in the past to come back to TV.

She reportedly went for this show because of the writer, “Alias” vet Jon Robin Baitz.
