In [[3027]] while doing research on [[Galatea]], Greenburg struck up a friendship with [[Philippe Rodan]], survivor of the ill-fated [[Brownlee's Barracudas]] [[mercenary unit]], and ultimately came up with a plan. Greenburg approached his TBC producer with the concept of a documentary series covering the day-to-day life of the first year of a new mercenary force led by Rodan and funded in part by TBC, with the network enthusiastic about the project but stipulating that [[holovid]] star Greenburg lead the new command.<ref name=FM:MRp71>''Field Manual: Mercenaries, Revised'', p. 71</ref><ref name=TRO3039-270>''Technical Readout: 3039'', p. 270: "Star League - BL-7-KNT Black Knight"</ref>

Thus was born the ''[[Greenburg's Godzillas (Holovid)|Greenburg's Godzillas]]'' holovid series, with Greenburg treating the viewers across the Inner Sphere to an up-close view of the mercenary life, the back streets and [[hiring hall]]s of Galatea, tense contract negotiations and best bars and clubs of the [[Mercenary's Star (hiring hall)|Mercenary's Star]]. While initially highly successful, as the ratings fell cagey TBC executives canned the show on the cusp of the [[Fourth Succession War]]. By this point Greenburg hard established a firm relationship with the members of the "cast" and chose to remain at the head of his namesake unit and return to combat.<ref name=FM:MRp71/><ref name=TRO3039-270/>
