Season 2 of Hallmark+’s The Chicken Sisters, about a family fried-chicken restaurant, is in production in Vancouver, with Lea Thompson in the Director’s Chair.
The Chicken Sisters is a family drama dipped in southern charm and served up with a saucy side of romance. The setting is the fictional town of Merinac.
In season one, a generations-old rift between dueling fried chicken restaurants – Mimi’s and Frannie’s – left the founders’ families fractured and the locals taking sides.
Starring Lea Thompson, Genevieve Angelson, Schuyler Fisk and Wendie Malick.
Season 2 follows Nancy Hillier (Lea Thomspon), Mae Moore (Genevieve Angelson). Amanda Moore- Hillier (Schuyler Fisk) and Gus Moore (Wendie Mallick) as their new The Chicken Sisters restaurant officially puts a generations-long feud to rest,. Meanwhile, Frank Jr. (James Kott) opens a Mr. Chicken’s Cluckery on Merinac’s Main Street and a familiar face (David James Elliott) comes back to town. As Mae and Jay (Samer Salem)’s wedding approaches, the Moore-Hillier women rise above the roost, proving that family is the only prize worth fighting for.
David James Elliot will recur in season 2.
