Well like others have previously stated how inaccurate this is, I should have listened but no me being me rather than take the word of someone who had watched it, I decided to watch and yes they were right. The episode about their one time leader sonny barger and woah how can a so-called journalist sit there on camera and lie as when they talk about the students protesting the Vietnam War and the journalist states oh sonny with his proud military veteran background took offence to them, err WHAT, he was in it for 14 months and never saw any kind of action I said right enough lies and cant watch the rest, you think in this day and age with info like that so easy to find out they wouldn't.
First thing I feel I just have to say and to the poster it's not a direct or indirect attack on you as I don't know you to attack you, but as that's the only bad comment that comes from a guy that has a steel determination to promote the 2019 documentary and says the makers name to many times for me to take it as real, as this show for anyone interested in watching is based on his entire LIFE and not just the six years he spent in Italy and this seems like it was only made to showcase the good about him, as this documentary makes no mention of his ban from the 1994 world cup in the United States of America and many other important things in this man's life.
It's been a long silence, but let me catch everyone up... In 2019 super Emmy Award-winning producer and President of MGM TV, Mark Burnett, joined forces with me and Rob Lowe to see this project made. Joining us, once again, was financier Jeff Sagansky (former President Sony Pictures, TriStar Pictures, & CBS Television).
For two years every effort was made to find a distribution partner. All the broadcast networks, Apple TV, Netflix, Disney+ and all other streamers, all the cable networks, and the response was that due to the use of the Confederate flag, the depiction of Confederate Generals, the depiction of "white savior-ism" with regard to American slavery, and too little racial diversity due to our "Band of Generals" all being white, that in the current and foreseeable political/social climate in America, this series was/is unproduceable.
This was the strongest team yet assembled for this miniseries with passion and patriotism and love for our shared history you could not beat...but they were forced to admit defeat.
