TVKIDS The Chicken Squad Finds the Fun in Lending a Helping Hand Inspired by Doreen Cronin’s popular children’s books, Disney Junior’s new animated series The Chicken Squad follows a trio of young chicken siblings, who are led by mentor Captain Tully on problem-solving adventures, instilling in them—and the show’s young viewers—the value of helping one’s community and the joy to be found therein. Produced by Wild Canary in association with Disney Junior, The Chicken Squad is executive produced by first-time showrunner and Emmy Award-winning screenwriter Tom Rogers, who spoke with TV Kids Weekly about how he came to the project, bringing Cronin’s books to life on screen and the vital role kids’ TV can play in young one’s lives.
