Additionally, Lifestyle Network has green-lit the local production of two new original series that will join its newly re-launched programming this year. The shows will highlight artists, food, and travel destinations.
On its first season, “Spice to Life,” now a 30-minute weekly show, will take viewers on a gustatory tour around the United States. Meet new chefs. Learn to make their specialties at home. Discover their favorite local food spots as they take you around their hometowns.
“Spice to Life” is a colorful, delicious, and touching series, where chefs and restaurateurs share their passion for food, culture, people, and their communities. It is delivered by a cinematic and visually rich tale of how food has led them to industry fame. Each episode reveals their remarkable journeys and secret ingredients to their success, highlights their favorite local spots hidden from the average tourist, and demonstrates their signature dishes. The series is expected to highlight New York, Los Angeles, Hawaii, and wine country in its television debut. Spice to Life’s first season will run for six half-hour episodes, produced locally by Lifestyle Network.
The inspirational and highly artistic narrative is the focus of “Design+Story,” where artists’ stories are told side-by-side. Discover some of the most exceptional craftsmen, visionaries, and iconoclasts of our generation and revel in their masterpieces.
“Design+Story” thoughtfully narrates the magical, inspired, and colorful journeys of artists. Each episode introduces two artists, side-by-side, in a collaborative and self-told journey of their beginnings, inspiration, and craft. Featuring a mash-up of their live art, they visually convey messages of their methodology, uniqueness, intricacy, and the liberation of concept to masterpiece. “Design+Story” is a weekly 30-minute show, scheduled to debut later in the year on Lifestyle Network.
