The Chicken Sisters

Many of the people reviewing (trashing) this show are hallmark die hards and can't see past the fluff and predictable romance that they're used to. This show is fantastically acted, unique in its story line and very funny in an absurd and sometimes over the top way. It's a dramady with a heavy leaning into the humor. It's got lots of heart but you have to wade through the conflict to get to the payoff. It's worth the 8 ep watch thru of the first season and I really hope it gets a second season. I can see it doing better on a more established platform but kudos to hallmark for taking a chance on a show like this. Hope they make more like it.

I was so excited for this show because I love the book. The show is so bad it's unwatchable. I had to force myself to finish the first episode and I definitely will not be watching any more than that. The writers took everything and changed it for no apparent reason. Characters, names, locations. Even if they had left those things the same the acting is so bad. Really just SO BAD. And there are cast members in this that I normally like! They took a really enjoyable book and destroyed it. It's really a shame. This should be a quaint and charming show. Instead it's just a train wreck. I was so disappointed.

First - I need to address the reviewers that gave this a low rating: this is not a book. This is a TV series. Move on. Second - this is not your typical Hallmark show and that's OK. It's incredibly warm hearted while showcasing real people and real life issues. I think it was done really well and realistically. Third - I love the casting. I think it was really well casted w/great actors. The storyline is entertaining and brings up more of the history each show to deepen the storyline. I also think the character development was great. I fell in love with the characters. I am looking forward to Season 2!

This is a television show about southerners in a southern town, filmed in Canada, with not a single southern actor. All of the actors use fake southern accents, portray the southerners with typical stereotypes that Hollywood and non-southerners think all southerners look like, act like, and behave like. Southerners are sick and tired of being made fun of, being ridiculed, and looked down upon. Your portrayal of people with southern roots shows exactly what you think of all of us as a whole. Stop making fun of southerners!!! This is insulting!!!!! Shame on you Hallmark, shame on you Hollywood! Enough is enough!

I was so excited when this show was announced. The actresses I genuinely adore, and it hasn't disappointed me. It is not some fluffy Hallmark movie, which, don't get me wrong, I enjoy, but their shows have always pulled me.

The dysfunction between the sisters is fascinating because you see where each one is coming from. Though the husband is loathsome, his mom, played by Lea Thompson, is sweet. I would kick him to the curb.

I love the drama between multiple characters and the secrets, and every time they show the fried chicken, I want to make some. I can't wait to see how it all plays out. I love that Hallmark continues to invest in excellent shows.
