My point was that Disney has a lock on much of the content kids love.
Which was, until Disney+, on Netflix. https://www.theverge.com/2012/12/4/3727688/netflix-streaming-rights-new-disn...
Netflix/HBO/AmazonPrime, not so much.
The above article (and the number of kids in my life with their eyeballs constantly glued to TV screens) says otherwise.
So, the new eyeballs aren't going to be from parents watching different shows, it'll be from parents watching their adult-ish stuff, while the kids are happily ensconced with Disney+.
But those little eyeballs aren't new. They have already been watching as much streaming as their parents would allow -- unrestricted in probably too many cases.
I called out Game of Thrones and Good Omens as shows that are popular with adults but that aren't terribly family friendly, so you won't be getting many 12-and-unders watching them.
No, instead they were already watching the ass-barn-load of kids content that is on the existing streaming services. b.
