It’s full of romance, suprises and chicken. — Lea Thompson.
New Hallmark series The Chicken Sisters, about duelling fried chicken restaurants, has wrapped filming in Vancouver and will premiere this September.
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, where a generations-old rift between dueling fried chicken restaurants – Mimi’s and Frannie’s – has left the founders’ families fractured and the locals taking sides.
Starring Lea Thompson, Genevieve Angelson, Schuyler Fisk, and Wendie Malick.
When popular cooking competition show Kitchen Clash comes to town, this could be the recipe for ending this feud once and for all. But things are fixing to heat up both inside and outside of the kitchen as the reality show spotlight causes sparks to fly as secrets are spilled and feathers get ruffled.
