Hollywood’s Strikes are Rolling Out the Red Carpet for Anime and Asian Dramas
https://www.cbr.com/more-anime-asian-dr … d-strikes/

Currently, American TV shows and movies are at a standstill due to the writers' and actors' strikes. This has caused some of the most anticipated blockbuster movie to stop production, and it's unknown when this halt will end. In other words, only shows and movies that were already completed will be released for the time being. Such a situation puts Hollywood's back against a wall, but it creates the perfect environment for an alternative medium to overtake the culture.

Re: Trekkie "vs" Trekker

Twenty Years ago since the Battlestar Galactica was remade or reimagined originally the Mormon influence in the 1970-80 shows, the reimagining, written and produced by Ronald D. Moore,  David Eick  and directed by Michael Rymer, it was made modern Echoes of the “War on Terror” a militaristic form after the attacks and some scifi commentary on Post 9-11 political Culture. For All Mankind is an science fiction by Ronald D. Moore, Matt Wolpert, and Ben Nedivi but Ron D Moore used to be involved in Star Trek, a drama called Roswell, Mission Impossible movies and then Battlestar.

It helped to make 'Syfy' channel into a brand

None of the previous attempts to remake or continue the story of Battlestar Galactica by Tom DeSanto, Bryan Singer, and original series star Richard Hatch, were successful. From the mid-1990s onwards, actor Richard Hatch (Captain Apollo from the original version of the series) made numerous efforts to revive the series, including co-writing several novels and a comic book series, and even went as far as to produce a proof-of-concept trailer called The Second Coming. Hatch's campaign was based on the continuation of the original series, set several years after the final episode. DeSanto and Singer's planned version, which actually went into pre-production before being delayed and then scrapped following the events of the 9/11 terrorist attacks of 2001, was also a continuation, set some 25 years after the original series. Both versions ignored the events that occurred in Galactica 1980. In 2002, Universal Pictures (the legal rights holder to Battlestar Galactica), instead opted for a remake rather than a sequel. David Eick approached Ronald D. Moore about a new four-hour Battlestar Galactica miniseries for Universal. Moore developed the miniseries with Eick, writing the scripts and updating the old series, also developing a backstory that could work for a regular weekly series, should the miniseries be successful. At the same time, Moore was approached by HBO about running a new television series, Carnivàle. While Moore worked on the first year of Carnivàle, Eick ran the day-to-day production of the Battlestar Galactica miniseries in Canada. Battlestar Galactica aired in 2003 and became the highest-rated miniseries on cable that year, and the best ratings that year for any show on Sci-Fi. The miniseries aired originally on Sci Fi  Channel now known as 'Syfy' in 2003.

Once the mini series or pilot movie was successful it helped launch the tv series
