Someone tell Chick-Fil-A that there are already enough streaming services in the ether. We don’t really need another one. What we need is for Chick-Fil-A to clean up their complex record of being anti-LBGTQ+ ( they have pledged to do better, so we’ll see) and focus on the food. But naturally, Chick-Fil-A did not ask for our opinion, or we would tell them that prices of streaming services go up every day, and people do not feel thrilled about it. We’re not really sure the addition of a Chick-Fil-A+ plus streaming service will offer much help there. Nevertheless, Chick-fil-A plans to launch a streaming service for Reality TV content. It’s pretty clucking weird, we have to say.
Deadline reports that “the fast-food firm has been working with a number of major production companies, including some of the studios, to create family-friendly shows, particularly in the unscripted space. It is also in talks to license and acquire content.” Perhaps the Chick-Fil-A streaming service can get Chicken Run onto its platform once it’s launched. Yep, Chick-Fil-A originals will soon arrive on our screens as well as on our tables.
In the line-up is “a family-friendly gameshow from Glassman Media, the company behind NBC’s The Wall, and Michael Sugar’s Sugar23, which is behind series such as Netflix’s 13 Reasons Why.” The series reportedly has a ten-episode order. We’re not super sure the creators of 13 Reasons Why are the right folks to make a family-friendly gameshow for the Chick-Fil-A streaming channel. But, hey, the world is a strange place.
Additionally, scripted projects and animation are also on the table for Chick-Fil-A’s streaming service. And the most shocking bit of all, the Chick-Fil-A streaming service may launch later this year. We guess we’ll have to keep a chicken eye on whether this all actually comes to fruition or not. Chick-Fil-A has not yet given any kind of official statement on the matter of this streaming channel.
