Plot Synopsis

Based on KJ Dell'Antonia's 2020 book of the same name, THE CHICKEN SISTERS is a family drama series 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. When the popular cooking competition show Ultimate Kitchen Clash comes to town, it 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. The eight-episode first season of THE CHICKEN SISTERS debuted on Tuesday, September 10, 2024 on Hallmark+, the day the new streaming service launched. Subsequent episodes drop on Hallmark+ on Thursdays, beginning September 12.
