A&E EXPANDS ITS HOME.MADE.NATION PROGRAMMING BLOCK WITH OVER 145 HOURS OF NEW ORIGINAL SERIES FROM BUDDY VALASTRO, RACHAEL RAY, AND MICHAEL YO

SIGNATURE HOME FLIPPING SERIES "ZOMBIE HOUSE FLIPPING" RENEWED WITH NEW EPISODE ORDER AS WELL AS THE GREENLIGHT OF ADDITIONAL LIFESTYLE SERIES ACROSS THE SCHEDULE

NEW YORK, NY - March 8, 2023 - A&E expands its weekend Home.Made.Nation lifestyle block with new series from celebrity baker, chef, and entrepreneur, Buddy Valastro, television host and designer, Rachael Ray, and comedian and actor Michael Yo. The network has also renewed signature series "Zombie House Flipping" as well as expanding with new series "Best in Chow" and "Deliciously Twisted Classics."

This Fall, A+E Networks kicks off its multiplatform partnership with Buddy Valastro with three new series following the TV star and custom cake entrepreneur. In "Legends of the Fork" Valastro travels the country in search of the most renowned American dishes and restaurants to uncover the "secret sauce" to their success. Returning to the bakery, "Cake Dynasty" (working title), follows Buddy and his family as they bring the Carlo's Bakery cake empire to new levels. With the whole family involved, the business is expanding into restaurants, nationwide shipping, automated cake vending, and other areas while still staying true to their roots--baking thousands of cakes, Italian specialty desserts, and cookies each day while creating the most brain-busting, innovative cakes around. Additionally, Valastro is set to host an exciting new competition series, "Cake Toppers" (working title), where talented bakers are pitted against one another to craft creative cakes until the tables are turned.

Following the success of "Rachael Ray's Italian Dream Home," A+E Networks expands on its partnership with Rachael Ray, with a number of original series in the home and food space in development. Among the new programs is the cooking series, "Rachael Ray Meals in Minutes" (working title), a fresh take on quick, easy, yummy meals. Rachael demonstrates her creativity and flare from her personal home kitchen, cooking a complete meal in minutes from comfort food to sophisticated fare for entertaining.

A&E continues to expand into the food space with "1,000 Ways to Dine" hosted by actor and comedian Michael Yo. From a cliffside pod in the mountains of Peru to a Tokyo eatery filled with ninjas, the series takes viewers on a tour of some of the most unusual and unique restaurants - where food is just one part of the experience.

Additionally, premiering Sunday, July 9 at 11am ET/PT, "Best in Chow" follows comedian Matt Richards as he travels to the biggest state fairs and street scenes across the country to find America's wildest foods and most creative cooks to judge the best of the best. Immediately following at 12pm ET/PT, "Deliciously Twisted Classics" continues the hunt for outrageous eats this summer. The all-new series features a panel of celebrity chefs and culinary influencers including Aarti Sequeira, Gina Neely, Leah Cohen, Rocco DiSpirito and more as they sample the most delicious and extravagant spins on familiar dishes.

A&E also announced the renewal of two popular flipping series, including fan favorite "Zombie House Flipping" which returns for season six. This season saw the expansion of the series with new teams in Tampa, FL and Dallas, TX in addition to the O.G. team in Orlando, FL. The series follows teams who transform rotting abandoned properties left for dead, or "zombie houses," into beautifully remade homes, flipping them for top dollar. Each episode shows the inner workings of this high-stakes world full of unexpected disasters, hidden costs, and quirky personalities.
