Overview
- Robbins has entered an overall development deal with 20th Television to develop, write and produce scripted series for linear networks and streaming services, with an emphasis on Disney Entertainment Television platforms.
- Her first project under the agreement is Chicks, a dramedy developed for Ellen Pompeo that received a Hulu pilot order earlier this month and follows two estranged half‑sisters who turn to fraud after their father’s death.
- Robbins arrives with recent momentum: she created the Hulu limited series Good American Family, which the studio reports streamed more than 140 million hours globally, and she has prior credits including Sunny and The Affair.
- The companies did not disclose financial terms or the length of the deal, and a Hulu pilot order does not guarantee a full series pickup under normal industry practice.
- The agreement illustrates 20th Television’s strategy of locking in creator talent with proven streaming performance to feed scripted content to Hulu and Disney+ and gives Robbins an in‑house pipeline to develop future projects.
