3835.0. "TFC - The Food Channel" by RANGER::PESENTI (And the winner is....) Wed Aug 18 1993 08:54

It had to happen!

I heard on the radio this morning that within the next month or so, there will
be a new cable channel available that has 24 hour cooking shows and interviews
with celebrity chefs, etc.

3835.1Robin Leach will hostCTHQ::CAMPOSWed Aug 18 1993 13:378
    Yes, Robin Leach is going to be the host.  He recently appeared
    on the "Regis & Kathie Lee Show" and was talking about it.  He
    was also talking (bitterly) about his recent palimony suit.
    Maybe that's why he's hosting the Food Channel instead of
    Lifestyles - he may still be famous but no longer rich!

From the Sept. 18-24 TV Guide, p 69 -

Television Food Network

Launching (full-time)
Nov. 23 (just before the Thanksgiving feeding frenzy)

Programming: A smorgasbord of recipes, shopping, nutrition, fitness -
     and _Robin_Leach_Talking_Food_.

Gimmick: Advertiser-friendly shows designed to appeal to people who
     don't eat TV dinners.

Wonder how you get your cable utility to carry it?
