There will never be anything like "objective" consideration brought to this kind of project by anyone, sorry.

But to the main point, unless these changes are going to occur "yesterday" any speculation is moot. If the mini-series goes into production and any significant amount of money is spent on it the likelihood of a new corporate structure being imposed quickly on such a level as to halt production is just about nil. This would require too many people on too many levels to turn on a dime and devote concern to the fate of this thing; simply put, the folks running Viacom and Vivendi have much, much bigger fish to fry in any buyout or sale of significant holdings, and micromanaging a cable-channel tv movie that's already under way would not even be on the radar.
