As you know, Giada De Laurentiis' Everyday Italian is no more. In Food Network terms, that means "no longer shooting new episodes but will continue to run in perpetuity."
Giada's new show will be called GIADA AT HOME.
"Giada adds her signature taste and elegance to everything from a beach party with friends to a romantic dinner for two. In ways that are stylish yet affordable, she creates scrumptious meals, exquisite table settings and inventive menus to help viewers find their own every cooking style."
Yes, Giada at Home. Sounds awfully similar to Jamie Oliver's show, but who cares about such things? Now, when Rachael gets a show called Rachael at Home, there's gonna be some hurt feelings. But until then we get Giada... at her home.
I love Giada ... I'm wondering if she'll introduce her new baby little Jade on the program ...
ReplyDeleteSounds like "Barefoot Contessa on a Budget".
ReplyDeleteExquisite table settings? I hope she's not doing tablescapes. That part is covered in another show lol.
ReplyDeletei love giada and i love watching her.
ReplyDeleteher shows are always well produced and pretty to watch. there is just something about her that is pleasant and, fun and lovable.
"Stylish yet affordable"? Isn't that just another way of saying "Chic and Easy"? No matter, I love Giada and I'm glad she's got something new to work on.
ReplyDeleteAlso, FN needs to hire a proofreader: "to help viewers find their own every cooking style."
Did they mean to say, "their very own cooking style"? Or perhaps, "their own everyday cooking style"?
Let's think about this for a moment or two. "Giada At Home" could resemble Jamie's series, but it could also smack of any other series on TFN, like "Down Home with the Neelys," "Paula's Home Cooking," or(the party angle got me to wondering about this), "Semi-Homemade Cooking with(Aunt)Sandra Lee." (Will GDL do window treatments like Sandy? Hmmm...)
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I'll still watch, no matter what she does.
I just had another thought. Will it truly be "at home?" Remember, for the original cycles of "Everyday Italian," the production company rented homes around L.A. to "portray(for want of a better word)" GDL's house. It may be a throwback to her upbringing, because she was taught not to be so forthcoming with family details(remember her Chefography segment?), and I think a house would qualify as part of those details.
ReplyDeleteI can understand her need for privacy...And,maybe her protective nature towards her child...But,neither Giada nor little Jade have been seen in public in nearly two months...I hope that every thing is alright ...
ReplyDeleteWill there be new episodes of her weekend getaways? I love Rachael more but GDL's getaways were way more interesting and appealing than "Tasty Travels". Sorry Rach! Does anyone ever comment how Giada's husband doesn't appear to be aging well? He looks damn near sick sometimes. Just curious.
ReplyDeleteI'm a huge fan of Giada and I think it stinks that Rachel Ray seems to "steal" Giada's name-sakes like "Everyday" and "Get-A-Way" Sorry Rachel but Giada is definately more of a class act.

ReplyDeleteI don't find the new show to provide many recipes- and to be far from realistic.....and not affordable? Who has that extra cash to go to POLO games??? Have a morroccan party in their backyard??? Keep it real Giada!
ReplyDeleteEveryday Italian was so informative and real!
