Loving Spoonfuls...re-airing in Canada on the new VIVA
Beginning November 3, 2008, the newly re-branded VIVA (formerly Canadian Learning Television or CLT) a subsidiary of Corus (who originally broadcast Loving Spoonfuls on W Network) are airing Loving Spoonfuls 5 days a week!

They have announced an airtime of 12 Noon Eastern which means 11AM Central, 10AM Mountain, 9AM Pacific, 1 PM in the Maritimes and 1:30 in Newfoiundland. Consult VIVA's website once the series begins airing for up-to-date information.

VIVA has licensed all sixty five episodes and the three one-hour specials including our first Holiday Special where host David Gale was nominated for Best Host in a Variety Special opposite Anne Murray and Celine Dion. These specials (and the whole award-winning series) are sure to bring back a flood of memories for those who were fans of the series and for a whole new group of viewers who missed it the first time

Stay tuned for David Gale's new web site as well

Loving Spoonfuls...internationally outlook 2009
Loving Spoonfuls has aired in numerous countries around the world. It is very popular in Israel (and has been for over five years) where it was recently airing three times a day, five days a week on their version of The Food Network.. It is either currently or recently airing in countries like Nigeria, Singapore, Australia, Italy, Finland and others. One thing always missing was a big British or American sale. It seems a shame no American broadcaster has seen this beloved show and thought there was an American audience for it. Grandmothers, it seems, are judged to be subjects that can not get ratings. The PBS network in the past has indicated a curiousity about the series, but their setup demands a show arrive with an underwriter-or sponsor. Interested sponsors...feel free to contact Executive Producer Allan Novak or for international distribution, Oasis International in Toronto.
