Popular Culture (Atlantic Resolve)

The following page describes the impact that the historical divergence and subsequent events including World War III would've had on popular culture.

Shannara Chronicles
The pilot episode Chosen was recalled so that the scene with the ancient ruins of the Space Needle were edited out and replaced. This was done in response to the Russian military crackdown of the Seattle Insurrection during the occupation which caused the destruction of much of the City of Seattle including the toppling of the Space Needle.

Stargate SG:1
All episodes with Russian characters were either removed or edited from cable broadcasting for the duration of the Third World War.

Star Trek Beyond sequel
While a sequel has yet to be made, J.J. Abrams had pitched the idea that Pavel Chekov be cast as either a Section 31 operative or even a pro-Klingon turncoat in a potential Klingon-Federation War. This was no doubt connected to Chekov's Russian ancestry.

Star Trek Bajor
Star Trek Bajor is a new series of Star Trek set before the events of Star Trek The Next Generation and depicts the Cardassian Occupation of Bajor. The story focuses on the Shakaar resistance cell with members including a younger version of Kira Nerys. Marc Alaimo reprises his role as the villainous Gul Dukat. The episode Gallitep was the first episode in the history of the Star Trek franchise to receive an "R" rating.
