York Featured on “New England Living� TV Show!
“New England Living� Television Host Parker Kelley with Executive Chef Justin Walker of Earth in Kennebunkport who will be featured on the TV show on April 16.
YORK COUNTY The new, “New England Living� TV show will air episodes on Sundays at 11:30 a.m. on WBZ TV Channel 4 in Boston. York, the home of former "American Idol" judge Kara Dioguardi, will be the featured town on the York River, airing on Sunday, April 16. York County executive chef Justin Walker will prepare one of his culinary specialities on the show. The weekly television magazine show, hosted and co-produced by award-winning journalist Parker Kelley celebrates
the art of living and entertaining in New England. “I am enchanted with all things related to the home and that includes art, architecture, design and dĂŠcor,â€? said Kelley. “We created this show for people like me who love home design shows but we threw in a new twist - food, cooking and entertaining.â€? Each half-hour episode of New England Living TV as well as New England Living magazine and NewEnglandLiving. TV will focus on the things that matter most to everyone –
family, friends, good food and, of course, home. Every show takes the viewer to a quintessential New England town, showcases a beautiful home and introduces the players who helped create it. Since the kitchen is the heart of the home, guests are invited to a dinner party and Kelley cooks up a meal in the kitchen with a local chef. “It’s a formula that hasn’t been done before and we’re excited to lead the way,� said veteran film director and co-producer Gene Allen.
