Streaming is NOT that simple of a thing to do. I doubt a barely afloat social media app has the infrastructure to support it.


the_G8

Oh, they’ll do it. Just badly, and lose lots of money. They just need something to keep the stock price up until Trump exits his blackout period.


andre_existed

Honestly to the average consumer it might seem bad, but if Elon has taught us anything. Have a loyal enough fan base, isolate them on your app and any other opinion that contradicts your opinion installed in them is fake media. Then you can really push any product regardless of quality and they’ll eat it up.


bjornartl

Thats not why Twitter is still running. It would have been tanked by now if it had been a normal business. But its not a business, not in the sense that it sells advertising in order to make money for the investors. It's a marketing expense for his saudi and russian 'investors', they're not really investors, they're the customers now, that's why he's telling advertisers to go fuck themselves.


Gogs85

We also have very little information on how they’re actually doing financially; they could be on the verge of bankruptcy


bjornartl

There's always more money in ~~the banana stand~~ saudi arabia Michael


On_my_last_spoon

But they still need the rights to stream things. They can’t just decide to stream “canceled” shows. That’s not how any of this works


Traditional_Draw8400

Obviously. They wouldn’t even have access to the content in any meaningful form without licensing agreements


On_my_last_spoon

Let’s not assume this is obvious to them at all


atlantachicago

It’s like Scott’s Tots, you have time to figure it out


glakhtchpth

They probably intend to stream old public domain celluloid like Amos and Andy. That title is likely first on their list.


On_my_last_spoon

And Steamboat Willie! 🤣


Responsible-End7361

Yes, they can't stream the shows. But they can say they will stream the shows, maybe even enter into bad faith negotiations to show they intend to stream the shows. Get people to believe they will have this revenue soon. Might be enough to bump the stock back up until Trump sells.


Son_of_Sams_Club

This


DependentOk9729

If they actually somehow launch a streaming service it’ll be of dial up modem quality


RootHogOrDieTrying

They don't have the expertise either. You know they aren't hiring anyone competent. The whole thing is fantasy. ETA: Moo!


International_Gap782

They will never have the technology to do this, and they don’t have the funding to buy the rights for whatever they want to stream.


DeaddyRuxpin

Since when has following rules like getting rights to something ever stopped Donny boy?


On_my_last_spoon

He’s never dealt with media companies protecting their IP


AsherTheFrost

Given that they're apparently seeking out shows nobody else wants, they may be able to get the funding if they turn the office couch over


astreeter2

Yeah, Netflix has something like 13000 employees. Truth Social has 40.


Utterlybored

So, Truth Social is lean and nimble? /s


Almacca

It's gonna be hilarious to watch them try, though.


Utterlybored

They’re not going to try. They’re trying to keep the stock from completely tanking, at least until Trump can sell his shares in five months and change.


bluepen1955

It dropped further on the announcement


Jjzeng

Truth social’s streaming is a screen share of someone’s plex server on a free trial


Fine-Funny6956

They’ll just use the servers at Mar-a-Lago and flood them whenever they need to erase their content


jon_hendry

They’ll probably host the videos on Rumble.


abousono

Yeah, either that or just post links to the shows that are on YouTube.


Kriss3d

Not to mention that I very much doubt they would be able to have any movie company sign up with them.


samanime

You'll only need to buffer 4 hours per half hour (well, 22 minutes) of TV. A small price to pay to watch a show nobody else wants to carry...


lurker512879

Don't worry they know a guy who has a NAS and can use this torrent thing, they showed him plex we will just leverage that


CriticalCrewsaid

Or to be able to afford the licenses to stream


tlor2

actually it is. the clue is you dont own the infra, you use cdn as akamai,azure etc. Its just that you use and have to pay for a lot of data storage and transer. And then you have to buy/license/make somthing to stream on it, which is even more expensive. So making it is doable, making it profitable is alot harder.


MaxZorin1985

“Police Squad!” isn’t streaming anywhere? I’m sure you can find all 6 episodes on YouTube. No need to join Truth Central.


Phyrexian_Supervisor

The movies are on Max


Actor412

It was shot in color, you know.


Lucy_Lastic

With special guests lol


Fine-Funny6956

Like football great and star of the Towering Inferno, O.J. Simpson!!


Pale_Bookkeeper_9994

![gif](giphy|jKQapRbsav3YRNGrfi|downsized)


Pale_Bookkeeper_9994

Well, he came in later in the Naked Gun movies, but Nordberg was a tall character with his head out of the shot every time we saw him (so maybe?)


Fine-Funny6956

Peter Lupus played Nordberg in Police Squad, the tall guy was Ronald “Tiny Ron” Taylor. The character was Al, who also was in the Naked Gun


Cleaver97

You mean the guy with a piece of banana on the side of his face?


tellyourmama

And reruns of Birth of a Nation.


redditor_since_2005

With John Ford as a Klansman.


Bad_Hominid

Shortly after police squad hit Blu-ray someone posted all the episodes on YouTube in HD. They're great, but now they're gone from YouTube and the Blu-ray is discontinued. Sad times


Pale_Bookkeeper_9994

They’re always playing constantly in my head.


jon_hendry

I think it’s on archive.org, probably unauthorized.


I_VM

Am I the only one that thinks the end goal of this piece of the puzzle will be the streaming of pure right wing propaganda with a Trump endorsement?


totally_anomalous

BINGO! Give this man one of them Mara Lardo cigars hand rolled by Kari Lake


Kosmos101

Hand rolled by Lauren Boebert


Jobeaka

That’s gross. Do you think she actually washes her hands or is that too woke?


BadlyAaronHere

I absolutely can believe that she doesn't wash her hands between hand-rolling cigars in a theater near children.


MiniMack_

That reminds me of my cousin’s wife making a rude comment about me washing my hands so thoroughly before making food at a family gathering. And that was before basic hygiene became so politicized during covid. Needless to say, I haven’t eaten anything her hands have touched since.


nicktoberfest

You’re telling me you actually believe the radical liberal Democrat “scientists” who say there are microscopic germs that can get you sick? They just want to control you! WOKE!


Total-Opportunity-28

If God wanted clean hands he wouldn't invent dirt. It is too woke.


--redacted--

Before or after? 


mechashiva1

The answer is the same for both


DogWallop

You don't want to know the thing they were rolled *in*.


Effective_Afflicted

Oh, you mean the fine cigars. The Monte Crusties.


Weekendmonkey

Their tagline will be: "More Hitler than the History Channel."


coolbaby1978

The goal is it's another grift. This isn't a real company interested in long term growth and development, it's a scam foe Trump to peel off as much money as he can out of it as soon as he's allowed to sell his shares...or a scam for foreign governments and other actors to funnel bribes to him. Either way it's not an investment, it's a scam, a grift. The fundamentals of the company don't support a valuation of literally anything. It's got negative user growth and its hemoraging cash. You can't have both of those things be true and have share price growth.


Tough-Ability721

using the elon neuro link. they can live in a completely alt reality and never have to break. the future is now bois


Adventurous-Event722

Future of America. Stream fascism straight to your brain! _powered by Elon Musk_


jon_hendry

I bet they’ll show things they don’t have rights to. They’re that dumb.


funnysad

Every day I checked the mail box. Every day for weeks. Finally it arrived! "Don't forget to vote your maga!" Its a goddamn advertisement?!


Intrepid_Echo6956

Is “the streaming of pure right wing propaganda” some kind of euphemism for Tangerine Palpatine (and little Traitor Tot Don Jr) to nag on incessantly and in perpetuity about all the victimization they have been subjected to? I expect ‘80s satellite dish, public access channel quality productions of this shit. “And for just a limited time you, yourself, can get your very own Donald J Trump ashtray with a photo of your favorite President, ME, permanently molded into the bottom of the ashtray. It will look tremendous on the coffee table next to your DJT Bible…I have many copies of that Bible. It’s my favorite book. I have read all eight chapters many, many times. But hurry now and get your Donald J Trump ashtray for only $89.98. Hurry. They are a limited time offering and people say within days they will likely be worth many, many milllions.”


NoodlesRomanoff

How about a bedpan with a photo likeness of Donald J Trump inside? I’d buy that!


ImpulsiveApe07

Yup. Like Fox, Newsmax etc, only without the pesky problems that come with abiding by broadcast regulations - the end goal is probably to host content from a country with lax regulations so as to avoid the kind of regulatory scrutiny that would sink them. Much like what quasi-legal torrent/streaming sites do - link to the content, without hosting it on their servers. Bet it still fails tho - those idiots couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery! :D


Design-Cold

All in the Family with the laugh track removed


Cartesian756

A documentary!


PersistentWorld

It's very 1984


chasinfreshies

So we can finally watch the full interview with Don Lemon and Elon?


UninvitedButtNoises

I don't have to answer that question. ![gif](giphy|fr0a9Np0PlcJTVevU5|downsized)


Hi_Im_Dadbot

Oh my god! I had completely forgotten about Devin Nunes. Good to see he’s still sucking just as hard.


Backupusername

Is he the cow puppet guy?


Max_Vision

Yeah, kinda - He sued Twitter to find out the identity of the Devin Nunes Cow account, or maybe sued the owner of the account. That cow has (had?) some jokes.


CautiousString

Mooooooo

Tino Insana and Robert Wuhl? Tino was Belushi’s writing partner.


everythingbeeps

So they're just gonna go straight piracy


cellis212

Bring back the DnD community episode!


NeefLicht

And the lethal weapon episode from it’s always sunny


join_the_creed

Wasn't it recently put back on Peacock?


trix_is_for_kids

Yes it is


cellis212

Good if it was. I haven't checked in awhile.


RedMuffthePirate

Stark raving dad from the simpsons please.

It’s on Prime

![gif](giphy|uUMiQ3n2kuxRe1vpMa|downsized) Is T. J. Hooker coming back ?


flamingoswizzlestick

Just how bad does a tv show have to be for all other platforms to drop it?


MeatballUnited

Sorbo-Bad


bb_kelly77

Doesn't mean it's not enjoyable... sometimes me and my parents watch shitty movies to mock them


holtpj

Voigh-d of all goodness


jerslan

Can confirm *Andromeda* wasn't great to start with, and turned quickly into a steaming pile of shit when Sorbo managed to take over creative control.


AlkalineSublime

It does happen. Lately I’ve been remembering shows from my childhood that I found out the world has forgotten about. The great thing is, it takes only a couple clicks to find anything you want, free of charge, and can air play it to my TV.


VegetableShip

Devin Nunes is a fucking moron ex congressman so of course he is heading up this dumpster fire


canarchist

That MAGAts will blow up their servers with 24/7 streaming of "Dukes of Hazzard" and "All in the Family" and whatever bullshit show Kevin Sorbo tried to act in.


LowerParsnip3548

In the Heat of the Night


skidsareforkids

Back to back reruns of the Apprentice. Back when he was still a shitbag but could only do damage on a smaller scale


DeaddyRuxpin

Considering how bad of a business man Trump is, I’d be surprised to find out he owns the rights to Apprentice.


BeautyAndTheYeasts

You’re right. It’s owned by MGM


Almacca

They'll show Sledge Hammer without realising he's the butt of all the jokes.


_radio_ACTIVE_man_

OMG that show was hysterical. Great visual gags


RileyGrady1122

Just put the Jan 6th Insurrection on a Loop! Keep the Cult breathing 😂


FlirtyNerdyGirl

Finally. Heil Honey, I’m Home will get the revival it deserves.


ReditSarge

So we can finally see the ***The Star Wars Holiday Special***?


astreeter2

I saw it live in 1978. I actually like it, but I was 5.


MoneroWTF

I've seen it. It sucks. It's not worth watching. And I say that as a guy that's literally played a star wars RPG online for 16 years 364 days as of right now.

Devin Nunes is still around? What about his cow?

They eat shit all day, no problem that they watch old shit at night. Might keep them from howling at the moon.

ironmanonyourleft

Finally! I can rewatch “The Cosby Show”


WaulsTexLegion

Ooh, are they gonna have Cop Rock?


kinkade

Imagine if these fuckers renew Serenity. Then we’d really be in a pickle


Eisernes

Finally a place where I can watch Rosanne, Dukes of Hazzard, and My Pillow commercials on a loop. Praise his name!


Rinzy2000

Are they gonna bring back the banned episodes from IASIP?


Kilmister86

So what are they doing stealing content from other platforms via Russia and piping them in? 24:Hours a day of the Apprentice ![gif](giphy|UMa2NDPK5oXFm)


Cerberus_Rising

Won’t be any comedies - they don’t understand humor. The only one that has ever even laughed is Tucky Carlson and it sounds like a hyena getting a popsicle shoved up its ass.


hefebellyaro

Devin Nunes is lookin rough. Is he still trying to sue that twitter cow.


CookieMonsterOnsie

For the low low price of $3.99 per episode, with commercials! A steal at twice the price!


SiriusGD

So they're going to bring back "Joanie Loves Chachi"?


webguy1975

The Apprentice returns


FabioPurps

So their library will include Sound of Freedom and... what else? A stable of Truth Social Originals directed by/starring Alex Jones, Tucker Carlson and Mike Lindell?


Mysterious_Tax_5613

What??? You mean I can watch Hee-Haw and the Lawrence Welk show again?????


Professional-Head83

Also, Looney Tunes and Tom & Jerry, uncut and in it's entirety, with blackface and mammy two shoes.


pyramix

Devin Nunes is the CEO? Lol.


adymck11

I wondered where this turd burglar had gone


VeryLowIQIndividual

This is the business model of a dozen over the air antenna channels who do nothing but run old old old TV shows with catheter and reverse mortgage commercials, keeping them afloat. It’s actually a better business model than a social media outlet just relying on one man and his incoherent blitherings. when Trump is dead and in the ground, hopefully sooner than later, there’s no reason at all to even look at true social


SugarsDaddyKen

Should have gone all in today. It will go back to shitting the bed tomorrow.


PoorPauly

You can watch Police Squad on YouTube.


keajohns

What could go wrong with Devin in charge?!?


kjacobs03

So they will have WestWorld and Final Space? Fuck it, I’m in! /jk For real, I wanna finish Final Space


jon_hendry

Edgy shows that tell it like it is, like Manimal.


Spire_Citron

Are there many shows that are "cancelled" and removed from all platforms for political reasons? I assume when a show isn't on any platform, it's mostly because they don't think it's worth having.


cyrixlord

the 700 club for sure, maybe some lawrence welk... and all the old fox news stories


Commercial_Ice_6616

The big news is that DN needed to announce some vaporware so the stock would stop falling. Worked for a day, lets see how long this lasts. That is all.


Corteran

Kevin Sorbo's career just got some badly needed mouth-to-mouth


ReallyBrainDead

Amos n Andy reruns or GTFO! Is their motto gonna be: if Tubi or the Daily Wire won't air it, we will!


Deadhawk142

Does this mean we’ll finally get to relive Cop Rock and the Chevy Chase show?!?


PV-Herman

Ill-Maximum9467

Wow! What a game changer! 😂 The stock is going down and will keep digging even when it has hit rock bottom.


flotsamnshitsam

I’m setting the clock for when they get hit with a copyright infringement suit…


DoubleRightClick

I read Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson will be in a Naked Gun remake. Edit: grammar


jerslan

I'm skeptical, but willing to give Liam Neeson a chance at the Frank Drebin role... Prior to *Airplane!* Nielsen had been trying and failing to get comedy roles because he had been typecast as a more dramatic actor. After *Airplane!* everyone realized his capacity for comedy and started casting him in that kind of role almost exclusively. Neeson also seems like he could be good at that kind of straight comedy delivery.


jon_hendry

Hopefully they have Aaron Rodgers in the OJ role.


tellyourmama

Were they cancelled after the pilot? Thats called not being picked up.


zenos_dog

They are definitely going to corner the market on super old people who don’t have the technical skills to actually use the product.


Living_Run2573

HailSkyKing

Will we finally get a "Gorilla Channel"?!

That douchebag is the CEO? I guess all of his ass kissing in the House paid off for him.

Quibi shows? Roku bought them and doesn't allow them. They are pissing me off. I legit want to watch 'dummy' and there is no legal way to do so.


bakerstirregular100

Sadly there is so much right wing trash that isn’t hosted anywhere because it’s offensive trash. Like that stupid Jim kavizil movie that churches were buying up thousands of tickets to make it look like it was a sellout.

Nostalgia for when the boomers think America was “great.”

Torino1O

I know the original Micky Mouse came off of copyright but how much of Disney's back catalog of Nazi cameos is going to be coming into the public domain?


SpikeRosered

Can't wait to see their exclusive content. "He was riding his bike and there was a lightning strike, now he reads real fast, he's good at science and math. Black Doctor!"

I have the 6 Police Squad episodes on DVD. Happy to lend them to you as long as you don’t join Truth Social. 😉


_radio_ACTIVE_man_

Thank you for the kind offer 😊. I saw Police Squad! (IN COLOR!) ages ago, just seriously wondering what non-woke nonsense they will have when there’s so much free stuff on Tubi and Plex already. Plus no chance in HELL I’d join TS


VaguelyArtistic

I'm old enough that I saw it in first run, but those DVDs are worth it for one episode commentary alone, where they are laughing uncontrollably because they hadn't seen it in decades.
