My kids used to laugh at Villager News, a dumb but occasionally funny skit show using 3D animation to copy Minecraft. Amazon Video now runs the show on its streaming service.
Basically YouTube became a method to make pilots for tv series.
Imagine all the weird but low cost documentaries i try and find on YouTube - Tods Workshop, Primitive Technology. There will be a thousand such people in thousands of niches.
Google could just flip on a content arm and hand each channel a producer and a decent camera and just own half the content. The other half is documentary / reportage rather than essays.
Honestly thinking of content as action shows or sci-fi 100 episodes is missing the point entirely. Content here on in is still high quality but aimed at a 100,000 people not 20 million.

just weaponise YouTube content creators.
