The Food Network Is Getting A Little Sister
13Oct2009 Filed under: Food Buzz Author: Tasha
Let me first be clear…
Networks and televisions cannot reproduce…
(Just my way of trying to be funny… hehehe! hahaha!) 🙂
In case your scratching your head at the title let me explain it to you..
The Food Network will soon not only be the only one on television.  That’s right, Scripps Networks Interactive announced it plans to broadcast another culinary channel next year by replacing lifestyle channel Fine Living, or otherwise known as FLN. The new network, will be called the Cooking Channel, and will debut in the Fall of 2010.  It is also moving from good ol’ Tennessee to the Big Apple’s Chelsea Market.
The new Cooking Channel will be a 24-hour network that caters solely to avid food lovers by focusing on food information and instructional cooking. The channels content will focus more on baking, ethnic cuisine, wine and spirits, healthy and vegetarian cooking and kids’ foods.
According to John Lansing, executive vice president of Scripps Networks Interactive and president of the company’s Knoxville-based Scripps Networks operating division, “The idea is to raise your food IQ, making our viewers better cooks and a little smarter about food.”
What do you think about this new venture? Do you think it will be successful?
