Chick-fil-A is well-known for its polite service and delicious chicken sandwiches, but its newest offering may be far from edible. Deadline<\/em><\/a> recently reported that the chicken juggernaut has been in discussions with multiple production studios in an attempt to launch its own streaming platform. Deadline <\/em>reported Chick-fil-A is speaking with Glassman Media and Sugar 23, with the intent to launch family-friendly content. It appears to be focusing on unscripted content but may also be seeking to license other content. This won\u2019t be the first time the fast food -chain has developed its own content, such as \u201cStories of Evergreen Hills,\u201d which it featured on its own website. A job opening for the company last year featured it was looking for an entertainment producer, stating, \u201cWe are looking to produce original entertainment \u2014 entertainment not necessarily about Chick-fil-A products or the Chick-fil-A brand.\u201d It added, \u201cThis original programming is intended for Chick-fil-A\u2019s soon-to-be launched PLAY entertainment app and may include scripted podcasts and audio adventures, original animation, reality and game shows, and other live-action scripted or non-scripted programming.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chick-fil-A\u2019s budget reportedly includes $400,000 per 30 minutes of unscripted content. Television producer Brian Gibson, whose credentials include \u201cThe X Factor,\u201d \u201cDancing with the Stars,\u201d and \u201cTop Gear USA,\u201d has been hired by Chick-fil-A. One of the reported shows Chick-fil-A is working on is a family-friendly game show.<\/p>\n

Social media had a lot to say about the possibility of the restaurant chain launching a streaming service. \u201cImma be so mad when I want to stream my favorite Chick-fil-A+ show on a Sunday and the app refuses to open,\u201d joked one user<\/a>, referring to the fact that Chick-fil-A closes its stores on Sundays. Another<\/a> complained about the saturated market of streaming options. \u201cChick-fil-A streaming service\u2019 is crazy. We have lost the plot entirely. Tear it all down. We need to go back to three big broadcast networks and go from there.\u201d Starbucks is another example of a non-entertainment service entering the streaming business. According to Deadline, <\/em>the new platform could launch as soon as the end of this year. As of yet, Chick-fil-A has not released any additional information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
