Magnolia Network Linear Launch Shattered Records in First Quarter, Continues to Expand Programming Slate

Upcoming Premieres Include "Silos Baking Competition" and New Episodes of "Fixer Upper: Welcome Home"

Network Boasts Nearly 100 Originals in Its First Year with More Than 30 Additional Projects in the Works

Following its successful digital launch on discovery+ last summer, Magnolia Network launched its linear home on Wednesday, Jan. 5 in front of an audience of 3 million viewers, landing a spot among the top 25 basic cable networks - up 17 spots from the previous year - and establishing Magnolia Network the fastest growing cable network in 1Q22 based on YOY growth. 1Q22 was also the highest rated quarter in the network's history for the W18+ demo.

The network's linear launch was bolstered by the cable premiere of the series that started it all, Fixer Upper: Welcome Home, which welcomed nearly 1.7 million viewers alone. To date, more than 109 million viewers have watched the Fixer Upper franchise since the series first premiered in 2013.

"We're so proud of the stories that launched Magnolia Network," said Chip and Joanna Gaines. "The people we've met, who have allowed us to share a piece of their world with you, make it clear that everyday, everywhere, there are creators, path makers, and explorers in bold pursuit of beautiful ambitions. We've just scratched the surface - there are so many stories yet to be told on Magnolia Network, and we can't wait to watch them unfold."

Magnolia Network has produced nearly 100 originals, totalling more than 350 hours of content across digital and linear and, leaning into the early success of its inaugural programming slate, the network continues to grow with more than 30 projects in various stages of development.

"We are thrilled by the audience response to Magnolia Network thus far" said Allison Page, Global President of Magnolia and DTC. "With more than 350 hours of original content across digital and linear platforms - and more than 30 projects in various stages of development - we are delivering smart, layered storytelling that inspires creativity, upholds beauty and draws out curiosity."

On the heels of January's linear launch, Magnolia Network is introducing four new originals to its upcoming slate, set to premiere this year:

SILOS BAKING COMPETITION: Home bakers travel to Waco, Texas, for a friendly competition that celebrates the joy that comes from time spent in the kitchen. The bakers are challenged to perfect a favorite recipe for a cash prize and a chance to have their winning treat featured on the menu at Chip and Joanna's bakery, Silos Baking Co. "Silos Baking Competition" will premiere concurrently on Magnolia Network and discovery+ on Sunday, June, 12.

FIXER UPPER: WELCOME HOME - THE CASTLE: Chip and Joanna take on their biggest fixer yet: a nineteenth-century castle in Waco, Texas. As they breathe new life into the historic landmark, they must also tackle its challenging infrastructure while preserving its original beauty.
