Ultimately, What Will Always Hover Over "Peacock-Streaming" (Like Dark Clouds) as a "Failed Streaming Service", Is Its Failure to Revitalize "Battlestar Galactica", Which in Turn Could Have Revitalized Them

 

"So Say We All!!"

Maybe If "Peacock-Streaming" Went Backwards, and Tried to Explain (Using Its Hands), What It's Overall Identity Is, Using One of Its Specific Series As a "Starting Point"

 

"So Say We All!!"

Remembering When The "SyFy Channel's" Early Days (The 2000s), "Torpedoed" Permanently, Any Chance It May Have Had With The "Science Fiction / Comic- Con Fan Community"

 

"So Say We All!!"

Have The "SyFy Channel's" Old Movies (2010), Begun Getting Ridiculed by Reputable Sources?

 

"So Say We All!!"

Would It Be Worth a "Go" on "Peacock-Streaming?" An "8-Episode Series?"

 

"So Say We All!!'

The Argument From "Media Historians" Will Always Be: "Peacock-Streaming" Simply Didn't Own Anything of The "Noteworthy Magnitude" That Other "Streaming Entities" Did, Such as "Disney +"

Why there were so many endless...."Errors in Judgment"....while managing...."Peacock-Streaming"....

Once Again, The Fun Isn't Anywhere Near "Peacock-Streaming"

 

In this case, the fun is at....'Disney +"....and...."ABC"....

What Is The "Central Identifying Marker" For "Peacock-Streaming?" The "Main Thing" It Is Known For in "Pop Culture?"

"So Say We All!!'

"Peacock-Streaming" and "SyFy" Will Continue Existing In a "Hazy Fog" Being Unknown to The Vast Majority of The Population

 

"So Say We All!!"

It Has Been Quite Simply, That "Peacock-Streaming" Simply Doesn't Own Anything of a "Fun Nature" to Make Into a "Streaming Series"

 

"So Say We All!!"

Is "Peacock-Streaming" Now Going In The Direction of Sibling "SyFy" With Low Budget Horror Movies?

 

Is this new...."SyFy Channel Direction"....the...."Back-Up Plan"....of...."Peacock"....in the event...."Sports Streaming"....does not work out for them?

"So Say We All!!"

Both "Failed Entities" Will Go Down In History as "Not Being What They Were Supposed to Be"

 

Not a "Streaming Service"

Not a "Science Fiction Channel"

"So Say We All"

It Must Be a Really Long Time For The Next "Steven Spielberg Box Office Rescue"

 

Right?

"So Say We All!!"

"Comcast - NBC-Universal's"...."Corporate Strategies"....For "Founding" The...."Peacock-Streaming"....Entity

 

1. Have absolutely...."Zero Knowledge"....of the...."Streaming Industry"....in terms of its trends (Science Fiction / Fantasy Programming), and what doesn't make money.

2. Did absolutely...."Zero Research"....into what would make...."Peacock"....profitable and what would not. And, did...."Zero Research"....into what the...."Streaming Industry"....is overall. Such research could have prepared...."Peacock"....for what it would be dealing with on a daily basis in the...."Streaming Industry."....It was NOT PREPARED for what it would be facing instead.

3. Pretty much, just run...."Peacock"....the way...."SyFy"....has always been run: haphazard and unrelated movies and TV shows thrown up on the screen.

4. Always do the exact opposite of what the entire...."Streaming Industry"....has been doing: providing robustly funded...."Science Fiction / Fantasy / Horror"....programming.

5. Completely overlook the...."Blunt Reality"....in the...."Streaming Industry"....that you need an instantly identifiable...."Identity Marker"....to draw subscribers to you in the hundreds of millions the way ALL of the other...."Streaming Services".... have succeeded at...."Mickey Mouse"...."Star Wars"...."Indiana Jones"...."Star Trek"....etc.

6. Completely SCREW-UP and procrastinate with (five years and counting) the one property it would have had to draw subscribers to it in the hundreds of millions...."Battlestar Galactica"....that would have instantly given it a badly needed...."Identity Marker"....from day one.

7. Instead...."F*cking Around"....in an area of expertise (Sports Programming), it has absolutely...."Zero Sports Knowledge"....of, and...."Zero Technical Knowledge"....of, to even successfully pull-off a...."Live Sports Broadcast"....of ANYTHING.

8. "Peacock Streaming"....needs to leave...."Sports Programming"....to the PROFESSIONALS who know how to do it, like...."ESPN"....Because...."Peacock"....has always SUCKED ASS at trying to do it....itself.

9. "UNDER-FUND"...."Peacock"....across the board from day one...."Peacock"....has always been the...."Low Budget Embarrassment"....the...."Legitimate Streaming Industry"....NEVER talks about.

10. Because of this and ENDLESS other reasons, the REAL TALENTS in entertainment....Steven Spielberg and Tim Burton, never bother with...."Peacock"....

"So Say We All!!"

"Peacock" Was "Hardwired" From Its Inception to Not Know What It Is and Thus, to Fail

 

https://www.msn.com/en-us/entertainment/tv/nbc-is-axing-scripted-content-but-what-does-that-say-about-peacock/ar-AA1EzlrW

1. 5-6 years later, it still can't define itself. Sports? Dramas? Sitcoms?

2. You read multiple, different articles on "Peacock", and you read multiple, different attemps at trying to define "Peacock." (Still, 5-6 years later.) All attempts incorrect.

3. Even when the authors of these articles attempt to contact "Peacock", for a definition of "what it is", even the "Peacock" bosses don't know (5-6 years later) what the hell it is.

4. The only accurate definition of what "Peacock" is...."A miserable failure at being a streaming service, and failing to get above 42 million subscribers after 5-6 years, regardless of whether or not it focuses on Sports, Sitcoms, or scripted Dramas."

5. So now "Peacock" is in a permanent "Rut", endlessly sitting side by side with that other 'Definition Failure'....'SyFy'...."

"So Say We All!!"

"Peacock" Can't Decide If It Wants to Be a "Sports Network" or a Provider of "Sitcoms" and "Scripted Dramas"

So, it always has its left and right feet in two different swimming pools....

When You Never Know Where You're Going, It's Always Best to Remain In "Limbo" (Even After 5-6 Years)

 

https://www.msn.com/en-us/entertainment/tv/nbc-is-axing-scripted-content-but-what-does-that-say-about-peacock/ar-AA1EzlrW

"So Say We All!!"

Will This Save "Peacock-Streaming?"

 

Didn't Think So.

"So Say We All!!"

If "Battlestar Action Figures" Were Ever Released In 2026, Who Would Even Recognize The "Edward James Olmos" Version of '"Adama", as Opposed to "Lorne Greene's" Majestic Version of "Adama?" (Globally Known.) Is "Lorne Greene's" Version of "Adama" Not Being Done?

 

"So Say We All!!"

At Some Point During The Past 48 Consecutive Years, "Universal Studios Executives" Decided That "Battlestar Galactica Merchandise" Would Either Be "Half-Ass" in Execution, or 100% Unacceptable

 

"So Say We All!!"

It Won't Be Long Now, When "Peacock-Streaming" (Once Again), Is Left Out In The Cold, While Not Participating In The ""Bread & Butter" of The "Streaming Industry:" Fantasy Programming

"So Say We All!!"

Are There "Corporate Classes" (Taught In a College Lecture Hall) That Teach "Universal Studios Executives" How to Make "Battlestar Merchandise" as Disappointing as Possible? (Since 2003?)

 

"So Say We All!!"

This Blog Has Learned That One Customer Was So Disappointed In This Book That He Sent It Back to "Amazon.com" The Next Day

 

"So Say We All!!"

I Guess The Philosophy of "NBC" Is: "If It Was Boring Enough Back In The Day, It Should Be Boring Enough Now

How do you replace James Garner, even if it wasn't his best work?

Unfortunately, What Will ALWAYS Be The Case Is: The Good Stuff Will Never Be On "Peacock-Streaming"

According to The Lone Purchaser of This Book On "Amazon.com", There Never Was (Is), Archival Material From "Battlestar 1978" In Storage at "Universal Studios"

 

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1036141691/ref=ox_sc_saved_image_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

Even going back to...."Universal Studios".... DISASTROUS DVD release of...."Battlestar Galactica - The Complete Epic Series"....in 2003, NONE of the deleted footage from the series (primarily "Saga of a Star World) was supplied by...."Universal Studios"....It was supplied by a private collector instead....

"Universal Studios"....an archival museum of classic...."Battlestar 1978 Stuff?"....Surely you jest!!

"So Say We all!!"

Another Interesting and Unfortunate Fact About This Book:

 

It was never distributed to anyone to be reviewed.

Not one review that...."Google"...."Bing"...can direct you to after the book has been released since Christmas.

Someone is hiding something.

This means we also won't get a...."Youtube Review Video"....either....

...."Hi, my name is 'Biff'....From 'Biff's Battlestar Bistro / Book Nook'...."

....As I'm sitting here with a little...."Spaghetti Carbonara" and a glass of...."Aperol Spritz"....

....I'm thumbing through the pages of the...."Battlestar Original Series Companion" in slow-motion (page by page.) You can see there is not much of anything here. Slowing down the...."Slow Motion Process".... even further, we are approaching the alleged...."Color Center / Photo Section" of this book.There is only 1 page (both sides) of eight photos. All eight photos have leaked onto each other in some sort of...."Printing Mishap"....on some sort of...."Less Than Quality Paper."

Save your money on this one and invest in the.... "Punky Brewster Companion"....instead.

This is...."Biff"....signing off.

It Has Always Been The Personal Opinion of This Blog That The Copyright Owners of "Battlestar Galactica" Just Don't Think Normally On Any Psychological Level

 

So, we have another book related to the "1978 Battlestar Galactica Series" that could have been 100% better than it was.

This is another one of those...."No Brainer Situations"....."Universal Studios"....has been notorious for, for the past 5 decades....where common sense was called for in the publication of this book (and everything else)....but (of course)....."Universal Studios".....went in the opposite direction.....towards...."Zero Intelligence".....

....It would have been overwhelmingly obvious to put more effort into the making of, and publication of this book. As such a thought would have struck everyone else on this Earth....

The very nature of this book demanded that the...."Glen Larson Estate".... be contacted for never before seen....behind the scenes photos.....of....."Saga of a Star World"...."Hand of God"....."Gun On Ice Planet Zero".....etc.

This book is...."Half Ass"....in conception and execution.

As a corporation in its treatment of the...."Battlestar"....property...."Universal Studios"....has only ever used a FRACTION of its...."Corporate Brain Capacity"....on any given day during the past 47 consecutive years. And even in that statement....I'm being too kind and forgiving of them.... 

....Additionally, any expeditions to locate more...."Brain Power".....within...."Universal Studios"....would only yield disappointments as well....

Every year (1978-2025) has been nothing but an...."Orgy of Bad Decision Making".....rivaled by nothing else in human existence and the contemporary business world.

This Blog still reeling from the fact that...."Battlestar 1978"....was never digitally remastered 20 years ago with new visual effects.

If...."Universal Studios".... couldn't even do that, it sure as hell would never make a new movie and series.

Another "Garbage / Clunker Battlestar Product" Has Polluted The Marketplace

 

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1036141691/ref=ox_sc_saved_image_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

Yes, you can always rely on "Universal Studios" to trash this series even in print.

The one customer on Amazon.com (in the entire world) who did bother to buy this book noted:

1. A non-existent Dirk Benedict interview.

2. A non-existent Cathy Payne (voice of Cora) interview.

3. A low number of cast photos already seen by fans.

4. A page count of only 196 pages instead of the claimed 240.

Well, this blog was saved from wasting its money on this new book.

"Universal Studios" strikes again!!
