Hellgate Network

Today is the first day for this new network…Fine Living was axed to make room for this. I’m watching now, and as I suspected, it is like when MTV started getting into lifestyle shows instead of music videos, they launched MTV2 to keep videos on the air. Now Food Network has launched her baby sister…Cooking Channel, for instructional programming rather than competition and travel shows about food, which is where FN seems to be going.

I was disappointed to find when I set up my DVR, that some of the shows are previously aired, so borrowed/bought from other channels, I guess worldwide channels. I suppose I was a bit naive to think they would film a bunch of original shows for a new channel. Lots of international influences now! I kind of like it now that I have my attitude adjusted!

I can tell now, that I will have to get familiar with eyeballing metric measurements, as I usually squirrel away ideas, rather than whole recipes. I bet if there is a recipe database at their website, I can convert too. It is just strange! 200 degree oven never does anything at my house! hahha!

So what do you all think, are you watching?

may be i can have a look
