Porn 'n' Chicken was a student club based at Yale University whose members met to watch pornography and eat fried chicken. The group briefly gained notoriety in 2001 when they announced plans to shoot their own adult film, titled The StaXXX, on campus with other students. [1] [2]
The film was never released or even completed. Nevertheless, a fictionalized version of the club's experiences was produced as a 2002 American TV movie titled Porn 'n Chicken and broadcast on Comedy Central.
In October 2000 an article in the Yale Herald announced the first known public discussion of the club, mentioning the project of its own adult film. The film's name had already been selected -- The StaXXX. Filming commenced in January 2001, and publications including The New Yorker , Fox News Boston, Hustler , The New York Post , Brill's Content , The Village Voice , Premiere Magazine , The London Evening Standard inquired for information on the production. [3] [2] Only a trailer was ever completed, and shown before a screening at the Yale Film Society. [4]
James Ponsoldt and fellow Yale alumni sold the Porn 'n Chicken stories to Comedy Central, who filmed on the Columbia University campus. [5] Directed by Lawrence Trilling, Porn 'n Chicken featured fictionalized versions of group activities and premiered on Comedy Central on October 13, 2002. [6]
It received mixed critical reception, with the New York Daily News called it "more boring than offensive," [7] but Variety commenting, "Sweeter and more relevant than its fratboy title suggests, Comedy Central’s Porn ‘n Chicken is a likable fusion of, of all things, Animal House, Dead Poets Society and Deep Throat ." [8] while the Daily Free Press stated, "Beyond the necessity of well spent free time, as expected, the message of Porn ‘n Chicken is largely empty. However, the two-hour escape succeeds admirably as a mental nap and an amusing tale of sticky-fingered American college students with little to revolt against besides the dullness of their existence."

While the World Health Organization's ICD-11 (2022) has recognized compulsive sexual behaviour disorder (CSBD) as an "impulsive control disorder", CSBD is not an addiction, and the American Psychiatric Association's DSM-5 (2013) and the DSM-5-TR (2022) do not classify compulsive pornography consumption as a mental disorder or a behavioral addiction.
