Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

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

Hallmark is an abomination to everything decent in the world. The movie channel, not the cards I mean:-).

Also, I'm literally struggling imagining how it could possibly get more saccharine than it already is?! Hasn't it reached peak levels of evilness already, at which point where would they even go from there?

Probably just videos where you watch gay people get beat up (nonbinary and such would be too confusing to them to even watch). So "Christian" S&M.

I think we're talking family friendly like Jimmy Swaggart.

I am picturing The Righteous Gemstones level of programming (this makes sense if you’ve watched season 3).
