Rachael Ray (TV series)
Encyclopedia : R : RA : RAC : Rachael Ray (TV series)
Rachael Ray is an upcoming talk show starring Rachael Ray that will debut in syndication in the United States and Canada beginning September 18, 2006. The hour-long daytime program will be co-produced by Ray and Oprah Winfrey through her Harpo Productions and distributed by King World Productions.
Although the details of the show have yet to be finalized, the program is expected to focus on more than just her culinary skills and will offer a lot of other positive/upbeat topics, stories, and ideas, along the lines of Winfrey's show. According to Ray, "People know me for my love of food, but I have so much more I want to share."
Scheduling
As part of her deal with Winfrey, the TV stations that will air Ray's show cannot compete against Winfrey, but will be allowed to compete against another Winfrey-produced show, Dr. Phil, which means in various markets her show will air on a different station other than the station which paired Dr. Phil with Oprah or vice-versa (i.e. KIRO-TV/Seattle and WDJT/Milwaukee, which will place her at 3PM opposite Dr.Phil on KING-TV and WISN-TV, respectively).But in some markets, TV stations that air the latter two in the afternoon will probably air Ray in mornings or middays, like WVLA/Baton Rouge, Louisiana, while in others they will serve as a 'replacement' for either Oprah (KGTV/San Diego, except they will air her at 9AM instead of Winfrey's former 4PM slot) or Dr.Phil (like WTAE/Pittsburgh, which will air her in his former 10AM timeslot).
Tagline
