OK, I don't watch television, so I am hardly an expert on U.S. television content. I don't speak Spanish so I am doubly unqualified to discuss choices on Spanish television. I know nothing about Spanish porn channels. However, I won't let that stop me...
From Wikipedia:
Common chimpanzees live in communities that typically range from 20 to more than 150 members, but spend most of their time traveling in small, temporary groups consisting of a few individuals, "which may consist of any combination of age and sex classes."[21] Both males and females will sometimes travel alone.[21] The common chimpanzee lives in a fission-fusion society and may be found in groups of the following types: all-male, adult females and offspring, consisting of both sexes, or one female and her offspring. Chimpanzees have complex social relationships and spend a large amount of time grooming each other.
Pornography generally involves two or more individual animals, small groups, or maybe 20 to occasionally 150 I suppose, engaging in a variety of energetic activities, so there are recognizable bipedal creatures, lots of motion, auditory content my include shouts, screams, grunting, and moaning, some speech that a zoo chimp might recognize. Lots of, uh, closeup photography that the chimp might or might not appreciate, but could be perceived as grooming. So, pretty much nonstop social behavior.
Car chases, soap operas, talk shows, cartoons, crime series, sitcoms, reality shows, etc. probably don't provide the same social ... that's sOCIal...stimulation. I bet the Spanish food channel undoubtedly covers fruit dishes, but probably doesn't do a lot of leaves, leaf buds, seeds, blossoms, stems, pith, bark and resin recipes. Seems like sports shows could be interesting.
Experimenting with chimpanzee television preferences seems like a good research project...at least for researchers who like a little porn in the mix. Or for budding filmmakers who see Chimp Porn as a possible way to grow the human market.
