Chick-fil-A+. How does that sound? Is it catchy? That might just be the name of a new streaming service in the future. Yes, we're talking about the Chick-fil-A that serves some of the best chicken sandwiches and waffle fries you could ever eat!

The popular fast food restaurant chain is looking to join the streaming wars by launching its own streaming service. Who would've thought this would ever happen? We didn't see this coming at all. Like Netflix, Chic-fil-A will be creating original content as well as licensing and acquiring content for its streaming platform.

An official name for the streamer has not been announced yet, but the fast food company has reportedly been talking and working with major production companies on creating family-friendly, unscripted original shows. One show that's currently in the works and has been given a 10-episode order by Chick-fil-A is an upcoming game show from Glassman Media (The Wall) and Sugar23 (13 Reasons Why, Maniac, The OA). Chick-fil-A is also looking into producing scripted shows and animation for its streaming service.

According to Deadline, the budgets on unscripted content are about $400,000 per half-hour. An official launch date for the streamer hasn't been revealed yet, but Chic-fil-A is reportedly looking to launch it later this year.

The only other piece of information that's been revealed about Chick-fil-A's upcoming streaming service is who will be in charge of programming. That duty has been given to Brian Gibson, who is best known for producing the unscripted shows Top Gear USA and The X Factor USA.

Could Chic-fil-A's streaming platform ever be in real competition with our favorite streamer, Netflix? I mean, it's possible. But Netflix has reigned supreme over all streaming services for a long time now. So, we'll just have to wait and see.
