New York – December 28, 2020 – Mark your calendars, on January 3rd fans of Chip and Joanna Gaines will get the opportunity to see a little more of what the couple has been working on for their new Magnolia Network when two specials simulcast ahead of the January 4th series debut on discovery+. In the one-hour special The Making of Magnolia Table with Joanna Gaines, airing Sunday, January 3rd at 7pm ET across Food Network, HGTV, Cooking Channel and DIY, viewers will see just how Chip and Joanna transform a historic gristmill into the stunning home of Joanna's new cooking show. Then, immediately following at 8pm ET, Food Network and Cooking Channel will premiere two new episodes of Magnolia Table with Joanna Gaines. In the first episode, “A Family Tradition,” Joanna makes a cherished family favorite -- Grandpa Stevens' classic Lebanese dish, Fatayer, served with a Lebanese salad, Hummus and Baklava for dessert. In the second episode, “A Friendsgiving Feast,” Joanna shares one of her favorite meals to make as the seasons change -- a rich and delicious Friendsgiving casserole, Cranberry sauce, Green Beans Amandine and Cherry Almond Crisp for dessert.
“Over the years, I’ve come to realize the impact that food has on our lives. It bolsters our traditions and it maintains our fondest memories and our notion of home and family. With just one bite, food can bring you back to a specific moment in time,” said Joanna Gaines. “Season one of my cooking show is filled with tried and true, family favorites that do just that. Recipes that remind me of my childhood, or my heritage, or lazy Saturday mornings at home with my family. This cooking show is a celebration of family, community, and traditions around the table. I hope you enjoy Magnolia Table as much as I’ve enjoyed filming it. It's an honor to get to share some of my favorite recipes with you!”
discovery+ will feature an exclusive first look at content from the Magnolia Network, the forthcoming multiplatform joint venture with Chip and Joanna Gaines.

The preview will be exclusive to discovery+ until the launch of Magnolia Network later in 2021.
Earlier this spring, Magnolia Network previewed its upcoming original slate with A Look Back & A Look Ahead on DIY Network, giving viewers a sneak peek of the incredible stories waiting to be told on the network. More than 2.5 million total viewers tuned in for the four-part special, delivering the highest-rated day in DIY Network history among P25-54. Additionally, Food Network hosted a special one-hour event In the Kitchen with Joanna Gaines in April, which netted the single highest-rated weekend daytime telecast in Food Network history.
