The Business

Battlestar Galactica; Shawn Levy; the Mailroom Tapes

Hosted by Claude Brodesser-Akner Apr. 11, 2005 Entertainment
The reincarnation of Battlestar Galactica is an astronomic hit for the Sci Fi Channel, but what if it had crashed?  Then a movie is born -- almost. Finally, it-s off the record, on the QT, and very hush-hush: tales from inside the talent agency mailroom.
