October is rollout month for the Food Network. The new fare begins Oct. 3 with Everyday Food at 8 a.m. The show offers quick and easy solutions to everyday cooking challenges and airs weekdays. Next up is Christine Cushing: No Reservations. The popular Cushing is joined in her new series by three guests each ep, weekdays at 11:30 a.m. At 7 p.m. and airing each Monday, Food Net invites viewers to Crash My Kitchen. The series combines ‘tough love intervention with group-hug support’ to help families out of their food ruts. Also beginning on Oct. 3 is The Family Restaurant. Airing Mondays at 9 p.m., the show takes viewers behind the scenes at the emporium of fiery restaurateur Yianni Psalios and his exuberant Greek family.
Weighing in on Tuesdays at 7 p.m., beginning Oct. 4, is Weighing In. ‘Calorie commando’ Juan Carlos Cruz uses a ‘satisfy, don’t deny’ philosophy to help a group of participants slim down over a three-month period.
Two new entries debut Friday, Oct. 7. At 7 p.m., a designer and a certified food inspector visit families to uncover their safety and design Kitchen Crimes. Meanwhile at 8 p.m. Recipe for Success follows the inspirational stories of people undergoing career makeovers to get into various aspects of the food business. Both shows run weekly.
