The Chicken Sisters on Hallmark Channel just premiered now. For
those who may not be familiar with the series, what's
it about.
Speaker 7 (06:00):
Well, it's about well, the first season was about these
two chicken restaurants who ended up in a weird competition.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
With each other.
Speaker 7 (06:09):
They've always been in competition for like one hundred years,
these two rival chicken restaurants in the small southern town
of Marnac, and they get caught up in a reality
show which is pitting the two against each other.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
And so.
Speaker 5 (06:25):
It's about a small town.
Speaker 7 (06:27):
It's about a family that's interconnected in really interesting ways,
and mostly about these four women and how they navigate
their lives, their family, their business, and their love.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
I've seen the trailers. It's pretty funny too. Again, you
can check out season two of The Chicken Sisters on
Hallmark Channel right now, and hey, tight morewood Leah coming

After this on Mario Lopez getting back to Leah Thompson.
Been talking about our show The Chicken Sisters over on
Hallmark Channel. Now in this you have an accent, you
can have. There's different types of Southern accents, right like
the North Carolina sounds different from Georgia, which sounds different
from Louisiana in Alabama. Which which did you go with?
Speaker 7 (07:09):

Texas accent where you hit the RS a little bit.

You mentioned that one.
Speaker 6 (07:15):
Okay, yeah, that's right.
Speaker 5 (07:16):

Actresses is from Virginia, Skyler Fisk, and her mom is
Sissy Spasic, who has the strongest accent.

Oh wow, that's cool. That's a cool connection right there.
I like that. All Right, lots more to talk about, Leah.
Hang on, We're gonna have more on the way. But
first one catching up with actress Leah Thompson this hour,
you're on Mario Lopez, and before we move on from
your show The Chicken Sisters. I know you're a director.
Did you get to direct any of the episodes? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (07:58):
I directed the first two episodes, which was really fun
because I'd be like, okay, put the camera over here,
all right now, I think we're on a forty on
this and a two shot over here then and I'd go.
Speaker 5 (08:08):

Lopez is mom jokes.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
I am pro mom jokes. Yes, mom jokes bring nothing
but smiles and positivity into the world, and they compliment
dad jokes. And when you have someone like Quardo Lopez
delivering mom jokes, they're really taking to the next level.
Missus Lopez.
Speaker 3 (16:07):

take us down many notches. They're not sophisticated, and they
really bring a stimulation that's unsacrificed.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Thank you what that doesn't even that doesn't even make sense.
It does not even make sense. We need moms to
take a break from life and all their burdens and
laugh and deliver a joke because if they're laughing, that
means life is good.

The Chicken Sisters on Hallmark Channel just premiered now. For
those who may not be familiar with the series, what's
it about.
Speaker 7 (06:00):
Well, it's about well, the first season was about these
two chicken restaurants who ended up in a weird competition.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
With each other.
Speaker 7 (06:09):
They've always been in competition for like one hundred years,
these two rival chicken restaurants in the small southern town
of Marnac, and they get caught up in a reality
show which is pitting the two against each other.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
And so.
Speaker 5 (06:25):
It's about a small town.
Speaker 7 (06:27):
It's about a family that's interconnected in really interesting ways,
and mostly about these four women and how they navigate
their lives, their family, their business, and their love.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
I've seen the trailers. It's pretty funny too. Again, you

the North Carolina sounds different from Georgia, which sounds different
from Louisiana in Alabama. Which which did you go with?

Lopez is mom jokes.

I am pro mom jokes. Yes, mom jokes bring nothing

dad jokes. And when you have someone like Quardo Lopez
delivering mom jokes, they're really taking to the next level.
Missus Lopez.
Speaker 3 (16:07):

take us down many notches. They're not sophisticated, and they
really bring a stimulation that's unsacrificed.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Thank you what that doesn't even that doesn't even make sense.
It does not even make sense. We need moms to
take a break from life and all their burdens and
