I am with you Eric better not to have been done as to have been poorly attempted. Althought I enjoyed Gettysburg G&G was not what I had expeted. I would anticipate a better chance of a TV summer series. More along the lines of following Perhaps R.E. Lee from "Gone for Soldies" through Last Full Measure" A character study on why Lee was the man he was. Although I doubt that would fly as he may not be considered politically correct. Perhaps just following the fortunes of major players both north and south prior to and through the war. 

Also your point as to who will finance the production. It is my understanding that period peices do not generally do well at the box office. So to be realistic the odds for a triquell is not good.
