Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Chicken Soup for the Soul Entertainment, Inc. have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are consistent in all material respects with those applied in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 30, 2020. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company following the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations; however, the Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include revenue recognition, estimated film ultimate revenues, allowance for doubtful accounts, intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, valuation allowance for income taxes and amortization of programming and film library costs. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On a regular basis, the Company evaluates the assumptions, judgments and estimates. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The interim financial information is unaudited, but reflects all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the information set forth herein. The interim There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies as compared to the significant accounting policies described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Note 3 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued Accounting Standards In March 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2019-02, “Improvements to Accounting for Costs of Films and License Agreements for Program Materials.” The amendments in this ASU align the accounting for production costs of an episodic television series with the accounting for production costs of films. In addition, the ASU modifies certain aspects of the capitalization, impairment, presentation and disclosure requirements under the current film and broadcaster entertainment industry guidance. The new guidance is effective for the Company’s interim and annual reporting periods starting in the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The new guidance will be applied on a prospective basis. Based on the Company’s preliminary assessment, the impact of implementation is not expected to be material. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-18, “Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808) – Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606.” The amendments in this ASU clarify that certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants should be accounted for as revenue under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, when the collaborative arrangement participant is a customer in the context of a unit of account and precludes recognizing as revenue consideration received from a collaborative arrangement participant if the participant is not a customer. The new guidance is effective for the Company’s interim and annual reporting periods starting in the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The new guidance should be applied retrospectively to the date of initial application of the new revenue guidance in Topic 606 (January 1, 2018 for the Company). The Company does not expect the adoption of the amendments to have a material impact on its In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, “Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract.” The new guidance aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected by the amendments in this update. The new guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods starting in fiscal year 2020 for the Company, with early adoption permitted. The new guidance should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. The Company impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements is immaterial. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires an entity to assess impairment of its financial instruments based on its estimate of expected credit losses. Since the issuance of ASU 2016-13, the FASB released several amendments to improve and clarify the implementation guidance. The provisions of ASU 2016-13 and the related amendments are effective for fiscal years (and interim reporting periods within those years) beginning after December 15, 2022. Entities are required to apply these changes through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The Company does not expect the adoption of the amendments to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) in order to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases classified as operating leases under current GAAP. ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee should recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 is effective for public companies’ fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (including interim periods within those periods) using a modified retrospective approach and early adoption is permitted. Because the Company is an emerging growth company, adoption is not required until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 as recently voted and deferred by FASB. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements. Based on the Company’s preliminary assessment, the impact of implementation is expected to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. If adopted, the Company estimates the right-of-use lease asset and corresponding lease liability will each total approximately $15,800,000, respectively, as of June 30, 2020. The Company does not expect adoption to have any material impact on its results from operations and financial condition. The Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Business Combination	Note 4 – Business Combination The Company consummated the creation of its Crackle Plus subsidiary on May 14, 2019. In consideration for assets contributed to Crackle Plus by CPE Holdings, Inc. (“CPEH”), a Delaware corporation and affiliate of Sony Pictures Television Inc. (“Sony”), and Crackle, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of CPEH (“Crackle”), Crackle Plus issued to Crackle 37,000 units of preferred equity (“Preferred Units”) and 1,000 units of common equity (“Common Units”), which are now held by CPEH. In consideration for assets contributed to Crackle Plus by the Company, Crackle Plus issued to the Company 99,000 Common Units. From May 2020 to October 2020 (“Exercise Period”), CPEH will have the right to either convert its Preferred Units into Common Units of Crackle Plus or require us to purchase all, but not less than all, of its interest in Crackle Plus (“Put Option”). We may elect to pay the put option in cash or through the issuance of our 9.75% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) using a price per share of $25. Subject to certain limitations, in the event that CPEH hasn’t converted its Preferred Units into Common Units of Crackle Plus or exercised its Put Option, Crackle shall be deemed to have automatically exercised the Put Option on the last day of the Exercise Period. As additional consideration to CPEH, the Company issued to CPEH warrants to purchase (a) Eight Hundred Thousand (800,000) shares of the Class A common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $8.13 per share (the “CSSE Class I Warrants”), (b) warrants to purchase One Million Two Hundred Thousand (1,200,000) shares of the Class A common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $9.67 per share, (the “CSSE Class II Warrants”); (c) warrants to purchase Three Hundred Eighty Thousand (380,000) shares of the Class A common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $11.61 per share, (the “CSSE Class III-A Warrants”); and (d) warrants to purchase One Million Six Hundred Twenty Thousand (1,620,000) shares of the Class A common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $11.61 per share, (the “CSSE Class III-B Warrants”). All the CSSE Warrants have a five-year term commencing on the closing and are exercisable at any time and from time to time during such term. The Crackle Plus transaction was accounted for as a purchase of a business in accordance with FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations and the aggregate purchase price consideration of $51,672,531 has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on management’s analysis and information received from an independent third-party appraisal. The initial purchase price allocation was preliminary and subject to change up to one year after the date of acquisition. The final allocation of the purchase price to the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisition was as follows: May 14, 2019 Accounts receivable, net $ 5,360,667 Prepaid expenses 892,200 Programming Rights 1,155,363 Goodwill 18,911,027 Brand Value 18,807,004 Customer User Base 21,194,641 Content Rights 1,708,270 Partner Agreements 4,005,714 Assets acquired 72,034,886 Accounts payable and accrued expenses (13,061,494) Programming Obligations (7,300,861) Liabilities assumed (20,362,355) Total purchase consideration $ 51,672,531 In estimating the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, the fair value estimates are based on, but not limited to, expected future revenue and cash flows, expected growth rates and estimated discount rates. The amount related to other intangible assets represents the estimated fair values of the brand (trademark), customer user base, content rights, and partner agreements. These long lived assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 16-84 months. Goodwill was calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and represents the future economic benefits expected to arise from the intangible assets acquired that do not qualify for separate recognition. The fair values of assets acquired, and liabilities assumed were based upon valuations performed by independent third party valuation experts. Purchase Price Consideration Allocation: Fair Value of Preferred Units $ 36,350,000 Fair Value of Warrants in CSSE 10,899,204 Fair Value of Put Option 4,423,327 Total Estimated Purchase Price $ 51,672,531 The purchase price paid by the Company reflects the total consideration given in return for the ownership share available to CPEH in the entity. Consideration given has been calculated at the fair market value of the Crackle Plus Preferred Units; the four CSSE tranches of warrants and the Put Option. The Company valued the securities based on the terms of the Contribution Agreement and the use of the Black Scholes model valuation technique on each of the respective components as follows, 1. The Preferred Units have a stated value at the time of the acquisition of $36.35 million, as set forth in the Crackle Plus Operating Agreement; 2. The four (4) tranches of CSSE warrants were individually valued based on the Black Sholes valuation model using their respective terms and strike prices (ranging from a 5% to 50% premium over the initial market price of $7.74). Each tranche used a volatility of 58% and a 5-year risk free rate of 2.2%; 3. The Put Option was valued via the Black-Sholes valuation model assuming an initial price of $36.35 million, strike price of $40M, volatility of 17% and term of 1.5 years reflecting the latest time the Put Option could be exercised or triggered. All consideration transferred has been determined to represent equity-classified contingent consideration and has been measured at fair value as of the acquisition date. Equity-classified contingent consideration is not remeasured following the acquisition date, and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. The equity classification has been determined based on the terms of the transaction. The following table illustrates Crackle’s stand-alone financial performance included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations: Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 2019 Gross revenue $ 5,852,767 $ 9,421,629 Gross margin $ (45,092) $ 3,159,812 Net (loss) income $ (4,119,889) $ 423,566 Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 2019 Gross revenue $ 15,142,012 $ 9,421,629 Gross margin $ 2,320,711 $ 3,159,812 Net (loss) income $ (10,137,921) $ 423,566

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenue Recognition	Note 5 – Revenue Recognition Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized as an unsatisfied performance obligation until the terms of a customer contract are satisfied; generally, this occurs with the transfer of control as we satisfy contractual performance obligations at a point in time or over time. Our contractual performance obligations include licensing of content and delivery of online advertisements on our owned and operated VOD platforms, the distribution of film content and production of episodic television series. Revenue is measured at contract inception as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. Our contracts are valued at a fixed price at inception and do not include any variable consideration or financing components in our normal course of business. Sales tax, value added tax, and other taxes that are collected concurrently with revenue producing activities are excluded from revenue. The following tables disaggregates our revenue by operations area: Three Months Ended June 30, % of 2020 % of revenue 2019 revenue Revenue: Online networks $ 5,360,693 % $ 10,009,078 % Distribution and Production 8,537,956 % 2,202,451 % Total revenue 13,898,649 % 12,211,529 102 % Less: returns and allowances (378,109) (3) % (241,047) % Net revenue $ 13,520,540 100 % $ 11,970,482 100 % Six Months Ended June 30, % of 2020 % of revenue 2019 revenue Revenue: Online networks $ 14,386,403 % $ 10,744,342 % Television and film distribution 13,630,745 % 3,992,685 % Total revenue 28,017,148 % 14,737,027 % Less: returns and allowances (1,252,535) % (573,391) % Net revenue $ 26,764,613 % $ 14,163,636 % Online Networks In this operations area, the Company distributes and exhibits VOD content through Crackle Plus directly to consumers across all digital platforms, such as connected TV’s, smartphones, tablets, gaming consoles and the web through our owned and operated AVOD Crackle Plus networks. We also distribute our own and third-party owned content to consumers across various digital platforms through our SVOD network, Pivotshare. We generate advertising revenues primarily by serving video advertisements to our streaming viewers on our AVOD networks and subscription revenue from customers on our SVOD network. Revenue from online digital distribution and VOD platforms in our Online Networks operations area are recorded over time as advertisements are delivered and when monthly activity is reported by advertisers. Television and Film Distribution and Production In this operations area, the Company distributes movies and television series worldwide, through Screen Media, to consumers through license agreements across all media, including theatrical, home video, pay-per-view, free, cable, pay television, VOD, mobile and new digital media platforms worldwide. We own the copyright or long-term distribution rights to over 1,000 television series and feature films, representing one of the largest independently owned libraries of filmed entertainment in the world. Historically, we produced content in two main ways: we worked with sponsors and used highly regarded independent producers to develop and produce our television and short-form video content, including Brand-related content. We also derived revenue from our subsidiary, A Plus, which develops and distributes high-quality, empathetic short-form videos to millions of people worldwide. As a result of launching Crackle Plus, we decided to change our approach to content production, focusing primarily on co-production partnerships in order to build our AVOD networks, through Crackle Plus, and our worldwide distribution capabilities through Screen Media. By focusing this way, we believe that we will be able to grow our business more rapidly by entering into production agreements with a variety of production partners. In October 2019, we launched Landmark Studio Group, our first production co-venture subsidiary. Landmark Studio Group is a fully integrated entertainment company focused on ownership, development, and production of quality entertainment franchises. The Company recognizes revenue from the production and distribution of television programs and short-form video content as each episode becomes available for delivery or becomes available for broadcast, and for short-form online videos, revenue is recognized when the videos are posted to a website for viewing. Revenue from the distribution of short-form online media content is included in television and short-form video production revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Cash advances received by the Company are recorded as deferred revenue until all performance obligations have been satisfied. For all customer contracts, the Company evaluates whether we are the principal (i.e., report revenue on a gross basis) or the agent (i.e., report revenue on a net basis). Generally, the Company reports revenue for show productions, films distributed, and advertising placed on CSSE properties on a gross basis (the amount billed to our customers is recorded as revenue, and the amount paid to our publishers is recorded as a cost of revenue). The Company is the principal because we control the advertising inventory before it is transferred to our customers. Our control is evidenced by our sole ability to monetize the advertising inventory, being primarily responsible to our customers, having discretion in establishing pricing, or a combination of these factors. The Company also generates revenue through agency relationships in which revenue is reported net of agency commissions and publisher payments in arrangements where we do not own the content or the ad inventory. No impairment losses have arisen from any CSSE contracts with customers during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Performance obligations The unit of measure under ASC 606 is a performance obligation, which is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct or series of distinct goods or services to a customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Our contracts have either a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts and is, therefore, not distinct, or have multiple performance obligations, most commonly due to the contract covering multiple service offerings. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the contract’s transaction price can generally be readily allocated to each performance obligation based upon the selling price of each distinct service in the contract. In cases where estimates are needed to allocate the transaction price, we use historical experience and projections based on currently available information. Contract balances Contract balances include the following: June 30, December 31, 2020 2019 Accounts receivable, net $ 15,717,939 $ 23,266,611 Contract assets (included in accounts receivable) 6,855,493 11,394,508 Total accounts receivable, net $ 22,573,432 $ 34,661,119 Deferred revenue (included in other liabilities) $ 994,580 $ — Contract assets are primarily comprised of contract obligations that are generally satisfied over time under the terms of our contracts with customers and are transferred to accounts receivable when the right to payment becomes unconditional. Contract liabilities relate to advance consideration received from customers under the terms of our contracts primarily related to cash payments received in advance of satisfaction of the contractual performance obligation. We generally receive payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules and arrangements. Contract receivables are recognized in the period the Company performs the agreed upon performance obligations and the Company’s right to consideration becomes unconditional. Payment terms vary by the type and location of our customer and the products or services provided. Payment terms for amounts invoiced are typically net 30 or 60 days. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. A contract asset results when goods or services have been transferred to the customer, but payment is contingent upon a future event, other than the passage of time (i.e. type of unbilled receivable). Given the nature of our business from time to time we engage with customers for terms that include minimum guarantees which are contractual obligations for payment over a period of time that may extend past one year at a variable rate of payment – based on sales or collections. These minimum guarantees are generally collectible via royalty payments at an agreed rate which are collected on a monthly or quarterly basis. Contractual arrangements containing minimum guarantees are evaluated on a contract by contract basis for the need for present value treatment. As of the financial statement date no material arrangements requiring financing treatment have been identified. The Company records deferred revenues (also referred to as contract liabilities under Topic 606) when cash payments are received or due in advance of our satisfying our performance obligations. Our deferred revenue balance primarily relates to advance payments received related to our content distribution rights agreements and our production sponsorship arrangements. These contract liabilities are recognized as revenue as the related performance obligations are satisfied. No significant changes in the timeframe of the satisfaction of contract liabilities have occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Arrangements with multiple performance obligations In contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company identifies each performance obligation and evaluates whether the performance obligations are distinct within the context of the contract at contract inception. When multiple performance obligations are identified, we identify how control transfers to the customer for each distinct contract obligation and determine the period when the obligations are satisfied. If obligations are satisfied in the same period, no allocation of revenue is deemed to be necessary. In the event performance obligations within a bundled contract do not run concurrently, we allocate revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. We generally determine standalone selling prices based on the prices charged to customers or by using expected cost-plus margins. Performance obligations that are not distinct at contract inception are combined. Practical expedients The Company has elected to use the practical expedient under the relevant accounting guidance to omit disclosure of remaining (or partially unsatisfied) performance obligations as the related contracts have an original expected duration of one year or less. The Company has elected to use the practical expedient under the relevant accounting guidance to expense sales commissions as incurred because the amortization period is generally one year or less. These commission costs are recorded within Selling, general and administrative expenses.

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
Share-Based Compensation	Note 6 – Share-Based Compensation Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted the 2017 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to attract and retain certain employees. The Plan provides for the issuance of up to 1,250,000 common stock equivalents subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. The Plan generally provides for quarterly and bi-annual vesting over terms ranging from two to three years. The Company accounts for the Plan as an equity plan. The Company recognizes stock options granted under the Plan at fair value determined by applying the Black Scholes options pricing model to the grant date market value of the underlying common shares of the Company. The compensation expense associated with stock options is amortized on a straight-line basis over their respective vesting periods. For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $198,023 and $250,097, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $411,608 and $440,944, respectively, of non-cash share-based compensation expense relating to stock options in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The company did not have any stock option grants, forfeitures , exercises or expirations during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Stock options as of June 30, 2020 are as follows: Weighted Weighted Average Average Remaining Aggregate Number of Exercise Contract Intrinsic Stock Options Price Term (Yrs.) Value Outstanding at December 31, 2019 1,032,500 $ 7.73 3.33 $ 576,000 Outstanding at June 30, 2020 1,032,500 $ 7.73 2.79 $ 137,250 Vested and exercisable at June 30, 2020 785,833 $ 7.49 2.24 $ 137,250 As of June 30, 2020 the Company had unrecognized pre-tax compensation expense of $1,018,493 related to non-vested stock options under the Plan of which $376,860, $582,347 and $59,286 will be recognized in 2020, 2021 and 2022, respectively. We used the following weighted average assumptions to estimate the fair value of stock options granted for the periods presented as follows: Six Months Ended June 30, Weighted Average Assumptions: 2020 2019 Expected dividend yield 0.0 % 0.0 % Expected equity volatility 56.1 % 56.0 % Expected term (years) 5 5 Risk-free interest rate 2.22 % 2.23 % Exercise price per stock option $ 7.73 $ 7.77 Market price per share $ 7.27 $ 7.34 Weighted average fair value per stock option $ 3.51 $ 3.55 The risk-free rates are based on the implied yield available on US Treasury constant maturities with remaining terms equivalent to the respective expected terms of the options. The Company estimates expected terms for stock options awarded to employees using the simplified method in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation, because the Company does not have sufficient relevant information to develop reasonable expectations about future exercise patterns. The Company estimates the expected term for stock options using the contractual term. Expected volatility is calculated based on the Company’s peer group because the Company does not have sufficient historical data and will continue to use peer group volatility information until historical volatility of the Company is available to measure expected volatility for future grants. The Company also awards common stock under the Plan to directors, employees and third-party consultants that provide services to the Company. The value is based on the market price of the stock on the date granted and amortized over the vesting period. For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized non-cash share-based compensation expense relating to stock grants of $31,250 and $25,000, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized non-cash share-based compensation expense relating to stock grants of $62,500 and $50,000, respectively

Income Taxes	Note 12 – Income Taxes The Company’s current and deferred income tax provision (benefit) are as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 2019 2020 2019 Current provision: States $ 18,000 $ 83,000 67,000 110,000 Total current provision 18,000 83,000 67,000 110,000 Deferred provision: Federal — (247,000) — (590,000) States — (89,000) — (211,000) Total deferred provision — (336,000) — (801,000) Total provision for income taxes $ 18,000 $ (253,000) $ 67,000 $ (691,000) Deferred income taxes reflect the temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes, adjusted by the relevant tax rate. The components of deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows: June 30, December 31, 2020 2019 Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carry-forwards $ 12,333,000 $ 9,680,000 Acquisition-related costs 723,000 723,000 Film library and other intangibles 5,504,000 3,769,000 Deferred state taxes 34,000 34,000 Less: valuation allowance (15,646,000) (11,243,000) Total deferred tax assets 2,948,000 2,963,000 Deferred tax liabilities: Programming costs 2,834,000 2,820,000 Other assets 114,000 143,000 Total deferred tax liabilities 2,948,000 2,963,000 Net deferred tax asset $ — $ — The Company and its subsidiaries have combined net operating losses of approximately $45,808,000, $10,845,000 of which were incurred before 2018 and expire between 2031 and 2037 with the balance of $35,161,000 having no expiration under changes made by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act but may only be utilized generally to offset only 80 percent of taxable income. The ultimate realization of the tax benefit from net operating losses is dependent upon future taxable income, if any, of the Company. Internal Revenue Code Section 382 imposes limitations on the use of net operating loss carryovers when the stock ownership of one or more 5% stockholders (stockholders owning 5% or more of the Company’s outstanding capital stock) has increased by more than 50 percentage points. Additionally the separate-return-limitation-year (SRLY) rules that apply to consolidated returns may limit the utilization of losses in a given year when consolidated tax returns are filed. Management has determined that because of a recent history of recurring losses, the ultimate realization of the net operating loss carryovers is not assured and has recorded a full valuation allowance. Public trading of company stock poses a risk of an ownership change beyond the control of the Company that could trigger a limitation of the use of the loss carryover. The deferred tax asset valuation allowance increased by $2,098,000 and $0 in the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The deferred tax asset valuation allowance increased by $4,403,000 and $104,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies Operating Leases The Company is obligated under non-cancellable lease agreements for certain facilities and services, which frequently include renewal options and escalation clauses. For leases that contain predetermined fixed escalations, we recognize the related rent expense on a straight-line basis and record the difference between the recognized rent expense and amounts payable under the lease as lease obligations. Lease obligations due within one year are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. These leases expire at various points through 2031. During May 2020, a technology platform vendor discontinued operations prior to the completion of the contractual service period. As a result, the Company was relieved of its multi-year commitment which extended through May 2022 of approximately $9,800,000 as of June 30, 2020. This commitment relief has been reflected in the below future minimum payments table. Rent expense related to these leases was $436,007 and $113,210 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $914,308 and $226,418 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Content Obligations In the ordinary course of business, the Company from time to time enters into contractual arrangements under which it agrees to commitments with producers and other content providers for the acquisition of content and distribution rights which are in production or have not yet been completed, delivered to, and accepted by the Company ready for exploitation. Based on those contractual arrangements, the Company is committed but is not contractually liable to transfer any financial consideration until final delivery and acceptance has occurred. These commitments which are expected to be fulfilled in the normal course of business have been included below. An obligation for the acquisition and licensing of content is incurred at the time we enter into an agreement to obtain future titles. Once a title is delivered, accepted and becomes available for exploitation, a content liability is recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company does not include any estimated obligation for these future titles beyond the known minimum amount. Future minimum payments under non-cancelable operating leases and content agreements as of June 30, 2020 were as follows: Remainder of 2020 3,411,851 2021 6,665,120 2022 2,022,085 2023 1,269,773 2024 1,295,168 2025 - 2031 8,862,909 Total minimum lease payments $ 23,526,906 Legal and Other Matters The Company is not presently a party to any legal proceedings the resolution of which the Company believes would have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, operating results, or cash flows. However, legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties, and an unfavorable outcome could include monetary damages, and excessive verdicts can result from litigation, and as such, could result in a material adverse impact on its business, financial position, results of operations, and /or cash flows. Additionally, although the Company has specific insurance for certain potential risks, the Company may in the future incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims which may have a material adverse impact on its business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Note 17 – Subsequent Events COVID-19 There are many uncertainties regarding the current novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic, and the Company is closely monitoring the impact of the pandemic on all aspects of its business, including how it will impact its customers, employees, vendors, and business partners. While the pandemic did not materially adversely affect the Company’s financial results and business operations in the Company’s second fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2020, we are unable to predict the impact that COVID-19 will have on its financial position and operating results in the future throughout the duration of the pandemic due to numerous uncertainties around the entertainment industry particularly around production and advertising investments created by the effects of the pandemic. Some clients have responded to the current economic and financial conditions by reducing their marketing budgets, thereby decreasing the market and demand for some of our services. In addition, many businesses have adjusted, reduced or suspended operating activities, which could negatively impact the markets we serve. All of the foregoing may impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and forward-looking expectations. In an effort to protect the health and safety of our employees, our workforce has had and continues in most instances to spend a significant amount of time working from home, travel has been severely curtailed and many of our productions remain paused or continue to experience disruption, as are the productions of our third-party content suppliers. Our other partners have similarly had their operations disrupted, including those partners that we use for our operations as well as development, production, and post-production of content. In an effort to contain COVID-19 or slow its spread, governments around the world have also enacted various measures, some of which have been subsequently rescinded or modified, including orders to close all businesses not deemed “essential,” isolate residents to their homes or places of residence, and practice social distancing. We anticipate that these actions and the global health crisis caused by COVID-19 will continue to impact business activity across the globe. While we have observed demand increases for our services in the first half of 2020, we cannot estimate the impact COVID-19 will have in the future as business and consumer activity decelerates across the globe. We will continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state, local or foreign authorities, or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, vendors, and partners. It is not clear what the potential effects any such alterations or modifications may have on our business, including the effects on our customers, suppliers or vendors, or on our financial results. The Company will continuously evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to respond and adjust accordingly. Private Placement of Common Stock On July 23, 2020, the Company, entered into a subscription agreement with Cole Investments IX, LLC pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to Cole Investments IX, LLC in a private placement an aggregate of 625,000 unregistered shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 at a price of $8.00 per share, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $5,000,000. Prepayment and Amendment to subsidiary Landmark Studio Group Revolving Credit Facility On July 23, 2020, the Company, Cole Investments VII, LLC, David Ozer, Legend Capital Management, LLC, and Kevin Duncan, each members of Landmark Studio Group, LLC (“Landmark”), entered into an Agreement and Addendum to the Credit Agreement and Operating Agreement of Landmark, each dated as of September 27, 2019, pursuant to which the Company agreed to cause Landmark to prepay $2,500,000 of the outstanding principal amount under the Credit Agreement on such date, accelerate the maturity date of the Credit Agreement by approximately one year to October 11, 2021, and to unconditionally guarantee to Cole Investments VII, LLC the obligations of Landmark to pay, when and as due, the principal and interest due under the Credit Agreement. As a result of such prepayment, the aggregate principal amount of the commitment under the Credit Agreement was permanently reduced to $2,500,000.
