Chick-fil-A Enters Entertainment Industry

 

Yes, the chicken fast-food chain is launching a streaming platform centered on family-friendly unscripted original shows and acquired content.

The budgets for the unscripted shows cost about $400,000/half-hour. It is also reported that they are considering scripted projects, as well as animation shows.

The chicken house wants to break into the reality TV business and is building on previously produced short, animated films for its site, called "Stories of Evergreen Hills" and "Pennycake" - a series of children's games and puzzles.

Chick-fil-A, which was founded in 1946, has over 3,000 locations and boasts the highest per-store sales of any fast-food chain in the U.S. 

Good luck to the Chick's entertainment endeavor.
