    Robert Heinlein coined the word "Randite" in "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress". I believe he was one, himself.

    "Randian" is a perfectly valid form, like Euclidian, Shakespearean, Aristotelian, etc. It is not disrespectful. Now "Randist" I would find unacceptable if it ever turned up.

    To make the miniseries a success, spice up the sex, and run it on AMC. That the only way to get the nonbelievers to watch it. Telling the general public that it's anything else will not get people excited, there are too many that just don't care. Give them, or at least advertise it as sex or something really gross and outgoing like the latest "Fargo" and they will watch it.

    Good article. A bit stilted in its composition (throwing in the type of camera it was being captured with at the end of a paragraph having nothing to do with that topic just one example).

    This would be very cool. I have thought, ever since the first movie that a TV series would be a better medium and allow for the full story and principles to come out.

    The history channel would be an excellent channel to view it on as well as I agree they have done well with other projects. The men that built America for an example.

    I said this back in the early 70's, before there had even been such a thing as a miniseries ("Roots" aired in 1977).

    I just hope they don't change the cast every episode.

    I've always said that Atlas can't be successfully made as a movie. It must be produced as a miniseries.
    Even then, it would be the most "successful" after the collapse of our civilization.

    Hopefully it will be on the History Channel. They have a solid track record with such projects.

    This part was interesting,
    "He’s even contemplating doing a 24-episode TV remake in the future, one that could close-focus on specific themes or characters in the novel in more depth such that “people who never read the book would find it very entertaining but also say, ‘I got something from that, I have a better understanding of life, better values because of that.’ ”
