Sounds like it'll be family friendly game shows and Christian reality TV.
Honestly, that might actually be a profitable model they could make work, if they don't fuck the infrastructure up, or allow cousin Billy to expose himself to female contestants on 3 different reality shows they're producing.
Introducing, from the makers of bigot chicken, bigot TV!
On its face, the idea of the company launching an entire streaming service filled with feel-good stories just to sell chicken is a bit odd. But it feels important to bear in mind that Chick-fil-A is owned by the Cathy family, whose independently managed trust was instrumental in the foundation of Trilith Studios — the Atlanta studio most well known for its frequent work for Marvel.
Chik-fil-A is owned by oligarchs. I guess I’m one of the lucky 10,000 today.
Family friendly unscripted programs.
Are we talking '90s Nickelodeon, or real housewives of the rust belt?
We should be so lucky to get 90s Nickelodeon! No, I think the article said it's going to be mostly original programming so it's a safe bet whatever it is will be like Hallmark on steroids
Is it wrong that my dream for this is that it solely pays for development of incredibly gay coded TV shows, that the owners are too homophobic to recognize?
I don't wish that on any fabulous creatives, but I do wish that for all the money Chik-Fil-A is gonna waste on this.
So can they stream live footage of tortured children from the anti-gay conversion camps they help fund? Maybe make people think twice about buying food there?
Probably... not? You get so much more money when you lie. So they'll say how much then are "helping them", "saving their souls" (cough Spanish Inquisition cough), and the like. Lying is just kinda like, their whole thing, ya'know, bless their whittle hearts!
They already run what seems to be every other post on Reddit, so why not streaming, too.
Sorry what do you mean by this?
So, you know how Reddit has posts? Well something like 53% of those Reddit posts are posted by chick-fil-a agents for various reasons.
Ever since they won the chicken sandwich wars of the early 20s they’ve been focused on invading media spaces, often quite aggressively.
Reddit is essentially a chicken sandwich propaganda wing of the massive chicken chain at this point, still quite a bit of porn though luckily. Can’t say I’m looking forward to chicken sandwich porn 🤷♂️
Chicken sandwich porn? When Popeyes came out with their sandwich, there was a trending video on Pornhub soon after titled “PAWG let me Fuck her for a Popeyes Chicken Sandwich”. The Internet beat you to that.
Can’t say I’m looking forward to chicken sandwich porn 🤷♂️
Pepperidge farm remembers (shudder).
Burger King already tried the subservient chicken thing.
They're gonna make soooooo much cult money from this.
Unless they have discovered a way to beam a chicken sandwich over the airwaves, through my TV and into my mouth this seems like the most pointless thing ever.
This is what Edward Enigma was doing, but general brainwashing instead.
Can't I'm pretty certain Wonka still has the patent.
Nothing says "family fun" quite so well as content provided by homophobic chicken sandwich dealers.
The tops in boys. Short everything. Capitalism has finally reached the endgame.
Oh I do so fervently wish this blessing on the entire globe!
