FYI(TM) GREENLIGHTS NEW ORIGINAL SERIES "HE SHED, SHE SHED(TM)"

SERIES FOLLOWS THE RISING TREND OF TURNING BACKYARD SHEDS INTO INGENIOUS OUTDOOR LIVING SPACES

NEW YORK, June 2, 2015 - FYI has greenlit six hour-long episodes of the new original series, "He Shed, She Shed," it was announced today by Gena McCarthy, SVP of Programming and Development for FYI. The series celebrates the trend of turning backyard sheds into functional and creative outdoor living spaces. Production begins immediately.

People across America are cleverly transforming outdoor sheds into supplemental living areas. From pub-sheds used as man caves and shed-quarters serving as alternative work spaces, to the latest trend of she-sheds designed as female-based sanctuaries - sheds are the latest small space craze.

Each episode of "He Shed, She Shed" will follow two homeowners, friends or neighbors in the ultimate male vs. female backyard shed showdown - as they build and design a unique he-shed and she-shed. The series will also show off existing sheds across the country and meet with the owners to learn about their inspiration in creating the unique outdoor space.

"FYI was the first network to peek into the alternative living trend of tiny homes, and now we're extending that look into small spaces with the fanatical world of backyard sheds," said McCarthy. "What used to be just a humble garden outbuilding is now fast becoming a way for owners to express creativity and to fulfill a practical space missing from their traditional home space."

"He Shed, She Shed" is being developed and produced by Loud TV and Plum Pictures for FYI. Executive producers for Loud TV are Nick Rigg and Brent Montgomery. Executive producer for Plum Pictures is Stuart Cabb. Executive producers for FYI are Gena McCarthy and Toby Faulkner.
