Jennifer Beasley, President of Fiasco Global Media, together with creators Lindsey Middleton and Katie Uhlmann, have announced that Fiasco has secured the adaptation rights to the award-winning comedy Cows Come Home, with plans to develop the project into a half-hour television series.
Following its success at the 2026 Canadian Screen Awards, the acclaimed Bell Fibe TV1 comedy is making the leap from digital series to television. Fiasco Global Media will collaborate with writer and executive producer Garry Campbell (North of North, The Kids in the Hall) to expand the project into a scripted half-hour comedy for television.
The announcement comes on the heels of a major awards weekend for Cows Come Home, which won multiple awards for Best Web Program or Series, Fiction, while creator and director Katie Uhlmann was recognized with Best Direction, Web Program or Series, for the Bell Fibe TV1 On-Demand production.
“Cows Come Home has that rare combination of big laughs, genuine heart and a world that feels both uniquely Canadian and universally relatable,” said Jennifer Beasley. “My first meeting with Katie, Lindsey, Perry Zimel and David Carruthers made it clear there was something special here, and bringing Garry Campbell aboard made it feel like the perfect team to take this project to the next level.”
“Fiasco was immediately a clear fit because of the opportunity to work with executive Jen Beasley who is kind, collaborative, and has a connection to the themes of female friendship, rural community, and the idea that home is something you build together,” said Lindsey Middleton and Katie Uhlmann. “We are overjoyed to develop the show into a longer format with Fiasco and Garry, and hope to continue to honour, and laugh with our audience, celebrating family, female friendship and the wonderful world of competitive cow showing.”
Cows Come Home follows Tabby Acres (Lindsey Middleton), a chaotic and endearing woman who returns to her small hometown seeking a fresh start and discovers unexpected joy when she returns to the world of competitive cow showing. Directed by Katie Uhlmann, the original digital series was produced by Belleview Creative Inc. and Katie Chats Inc., and executive produced by David Carruthers (The Handmaid’s Tale, Workin’ Moms), Keri Ferencz (Murdoch Mysteries, Hudson & Rex) and Hari Ramesh (Rolling Pictures).
