Discovery Health Channel
Encyclopedia : D : DI : DIS : Discovery Health Channel
A version of DHC has been set up in Canada as well; Discovery Health Channel Canada is a joint venture between Canadian media giant Alliance Atlantis and Discovery Communications Inc. Another version of the channel in Great Britain has since been renamed Discovery Home & Health Channel.
In the beginning, DHC started out rerunning material from other Discovery Communications entities, most notably the medical-based reality show programming from TLC. As the network matured, it began producing its own programming in the reality show genre, mostly dealing with babies (, Birth Day), bodies (', National Body Challenge), and blood (The Critical Hour, '). DHC also shows episodes of the CBS medical drama series Chicago Hope on a semi-regular basis.
DHC won its first Daytime Emmy in 2004 for its original series about adoptive families, Adoption Stories. Most of DHC's fitness-related programming has since been spun off to its sister network FitTV, though some of it remains, such as the annual National Body Challenge series.
