The Chicken Sisters Officially Renewed For Season 2 At Hallmark Channel, David James Elliott Joins Cast
Get ready to take another bite out of The Chicken Sisters.
The family drama, which debuted its first season last year exclusively on streaming service Hallmark+, has been renewed for a Season 2, to air on Hallmark Channel. (New episodes will still stream next day on Hallmark+.)
The network also announced Monday that David James Elliott (JAG) will recur in the second season, playing someone who resurfaces from Gus' past.
Production begins Monday under the direction of new showrunner/executive producer Erin Gibson (Throwing Shade), and Season 2 is expected to premiere later this year.
The sophomore run will follow Amanda, Mae, Nancy and Gus as they "use The Chicken Sisters restaurant to officially put a generations-long feud to rest," per the official synopsis. Meanwhile, Frank Jr. opens a Mr. Chicken's Cluckery on Merinac's Main Street, and a familiar face (Elliott) comes back to town. As Mae and Jay's wedding approaches, "viewers will follow the Moore-Hillier women as they rise above the roost, proving that family is the only prize worth fighting for," the synopsis concludes.
The Chicken Sisters wrapped Season 1 in October 2024, and recently made its cable debut on Hallmark Channel, where it is currently airing Season 1 episodes Sundays at 8/7c (through May 18).
