Watch | The Chosen (angelstudios.com)
It would be awesome to watch it on Faithlife TV.
I imagine the rights and royalties would be the issue to be solved.
Forgive my naivete. I'm not much of a TV person (though I've seen and loved the first season of The Chosen).
If one can already watch it free online in one place, why does one need to also be able to watch it somewhere else?
My guess is having religious programming all in one channel?
Correct. Season 2 is only viewable through the app. Having it on FLTV makes it instantly accessible on PC, TV, and mobile. Less hassle, much easier.

Not anymore. It was released to mainstream at least a couple of months ago. I can see it via my browser now.
Well, one thought is that by it being purchased for use on Faithlife, it would contribute to continue helping to fud its development. I must admit it is truly an OUSTANDING take on the gospels and my husband and I have supported the cause. My particular favourite was their initial offering, "The Shepherd", made one Christmas. If you have never seen it, GO WATCH IT, WATCH IT NOW!! [:D] That's what I'm about to do... again!
Really the show is pathetic

I think they have purposely not wanted to sell it to a distributor because they don't want any outside influence controlling the direction of the project. That's why it has been entirely crowdfunded to date. But only 5% of the people who view it contribute anything. It's great that so many can see it for free who might not be able to afford it, but I think those who could afford to donate even $5 or 10 really should, and those who could afford more should to. Millions of people are viewing it and if you multiply that by $10 it would help the filmmakers get another season completed. People don't think twice about paying $10 or $15 to go to a single 90-minute movie in person, but when it comes to content streamed to their computer, they think it ought to be free.
