Is Chick-Fil-A Hatching a New Streaming TV Platform?

Netflix, Disney +, Hulu, and now Chick-Fil-A? It looks like the popular chicken fast food restaurant just might be getting into the streaming TV business.

It looks like the Chick-Fil-A streaming platform is hoping to launch by the end of 2024, producing game shows, reality TV shows, and assorted family-friendly content.

Chick-Fil-A Teaming Up With Major Media Company

If you're expecting Chicken Little or poultry offerings, think again. Set your eggs-pectations higher, because the chicken chain is teaming up with some big names.

According to the Daily Beast, Chick-Fil-A has formed a partnership with Glassman Media which is the studio behind Dax Shepard and Justin Timberlake's show on Fox, 'Spin the Wheel' and NBC's 'The Wall' as it looks to produce a network-quality game show.

Glassman may also be working with Segar 23, the studio behind 'True Detective' and '13 Reasons Why.'

Chick-Fil-A Big Budget

The report goes on to say that Chick-Fil-A is budgeting about $400,000 for each 30-minute unscripted show and initially planning on 10 shows.

Animated and scripted projects - which tend to demand higher budgets may be added at a later time.

Not the First Fast Food Chain to Get Into the TV Business

Believe it or not, Chick-Fil-A isn't the first fast food joint to get into the TV business. Daily Beast reminds us that McDonald's got into the biz in the 1960s, producing 246 episodes and several off-shoot movies for its McDonaldland TV series.

Stay tuned. The plot chickens.
