Ever get served the exact product you ordered and felt satisfied? It doesn't always happen these days considering all the institutions in the western world that appear to have stopped caring about customers and their actual desires.
From Disney to the Olympics to Bud Light to Gillette razors, the western world have almost completely forgotten how capitalism works in one collective sigh of ideological fervor.
Why? Sure we've got theories. We all do. But what some people care about (instead of theorizing) is actually providing a product, meeting a need, and earning their customer's loyalty... you know, the mandate to "love your neighbor" which is the ethical system that capitalism provides for us? That's the one.
So, the chicken sandwich company appears to be in the business to do more than fast food service, and they are now working on earning your loyalty with a new streaming service! Some may find this strange, but we were already "on this story" before, because we saw it coming.
But first, Deadline reports here.

Chick-fil-A may be making a statement to Hollywood, here. I don't know. But what I do know is that our "family-friendly content" takes a hit every time another parent realizes that Hollywood ideology has been inserted into their once-innocent kids programming.
I guess they didn't think Hollywood took that word "programming" as seriously as a cult does, but now they know better... and hopefully they leave, just like us.
Another one takes the exodus OUT of the Hollywood cult...
So, maybe someone like Chick-fil-A, who's animated content we already wrote about here, can continue to make-good on their family-friendly branding and get some sort of "Bentkey-level" conservative kids shows going. You know... something you can put your kids in front of without thinking it will indoctrinate them into some sort of political tribalism by the end of the show? Yep.
Because, sadly, when you look around at these platforms in the interest of weeding out negative political messaging (which many parents can't seem to do) you find that MOST of them seem to have it.
Here is our story on their already existing Pixaresque, family-friendly content...

What Peter White from Deadline also mentions in his article, is that a new family-friendly gameshow is in development. Glassman Media, who has already worked on some very successful unscripted media, may be bringing a real hit to the Chick-fil-A slate. Reality TV and gameshows have been their bread and butter for a good decade.
Another producer, Michael Sugar of Sugar23, is working to bring content to the platform as well. He is known for producing shows such as The Knick, The OA, and Netflix's popular 13 Reasons Why.
These are no low-ball or short-shrift orders. We're talking speculation of $400,000 per half hour episodes, and Brian Gibson of Top Gear is doing the programming for these shows, and is in talks to acquire more!
Pretty exciting for Chick-fil-A!
I expect this to be better than many expect, but whether we are talking about something that can be lasting or culturally-impactful, we do not know. What we do hope is that a company like Chick-fil-A will see the opportunity of building trust with families as a serious proposition that demands care, and not just a money-making opportunity.
No word yet on any release dates or on the chosen title for the platform, as yet. We're betting on "Chick-A-Boom" or "Chick-A-View" as our humble guesses...
