It was really fun to reflect on how we envisioned the future of streaming back in 2017. Some bits have materialized but there's so much more exciting evolution coming.

I’d like to see a Chopped: Baby Food. Three moms will struggle to make nutritious meals for their infants. If the baby eats any of their food, they get to go to the final round, in which someone else cleans the mess and the moms get 20 minutes to watch Netflix.
