It is kind of sad how there wasn't a big World War 2 TV show that was of HBO quality in the mid to late 2010s

It looks like something we should have gotten during the 2015-2018 time period.

It looks like it was supposed to be made in 2014.

What has kept the talented people who made shows and movies like "Apollo 13", "Saving Private Ryan", "From the Earth to the Moon", "Band of Brothers", and "The Pacific" into a reality from giving an amazing historical show during the mid to late 2010s?

Were computer generated graphics not as advanced?

Was society too obsessed with "Game of Thrones" and "Reality" TV as well as comic book superheroes?

I say that as someone who greatly enjoyed Game of Thrones and the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

I think it is a shame that the talents of the people who gave us Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg historical shows and movies in the late 90s and 2000s were not utilized during the 2012-2018 time period.

If the 2010s had been more optimistic would we have shows that celebrated our WW2 victories and imagined a humanity having a optimistic future in space rather than dystopian shows?

It would also have been cool if this was made into a reality.

Maybe there was no interest in one?

Maybe because we already have "Apollo 13", "Saving Private Ryan", "From the Earth to the Moon", "Band of Brothers", and "The Pacific?"

Wut?

Did we really need one with the crazy amount of WW2 content that already exists? It dominated the history channel back before Pawn Stars.

I enjoyed “Inglourious Basterds” and not sure of the exact year it was released but “Thin Red Line” was good too. If you’ve an interest in WW2 there are literally hundreds of movies made by the participant nations from the war’s inception to the current date. Even more books. Hope you learn something of use to yourself.
Oh and I realize you mentioned TV but am sure you don’t want to limit yourself to one media source
