Scripps Networks Interactive has its roots in the 1993 decision by E.W. Scripps Company to launch a 24-hour cable network. The new cable network’s first network was HGTV, followed by Food Network in 1997, DYI Network on 1999, Fine Living Network in 2002, and Great American Country in 2004.
In 2008 Scripps Networks Interactive was spun-off from E.W. Scripps Company into a publicly traded company.
Today the company operates six lifestyle cable networks: Home & Garden Television, Food Network, DIY – Do It Yourself Network, Cooking Channel, and the Travel Channel. The company is majority-owned by trusts for the Scripps family.
Scripps Networks Interactive trades publicly on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol SNI, is a member of the S&P 500, is #828 in the Fortune 1000, has 2,100 employees, and had $2.67 billion in revenue in 2014.

Why don’t you EVER show anything about travel or traveling on The Travel Channel? Why is EVERYTHING shown on that channel about ghosts?! What a waste.

I would love to see HGTV have a show entitled Ruins and Wrecks. This program would go back in time to earlier shows, such as an American couple buying a ruin in Italy (possibly Umbria) where donkeys would need to take materials up the side of the hill/mountain to the ruin. It would be great to learn if they finished the project, did they divorce and have to sell part way thru the project, what happened and what was the result. There were so many of these great Ruins and Wrecks that we never learned how they were or were not finished? What happened to the buyers? Would new buyers let you in to see the results. We are voyeurs and enjoy the intricacies that occur in fact. I think this would have incredible appeal to your viewers.

Dear DIY Folks
My wife Elaine and I have been enjoying watching your DIY and HGTV shows for a number of years. Sometime we watch your shows on Tiny Houses. We enjoy some of the creative and artistic designs going into the tiny houses. What we are really wondering is how the folks living in tiny houses are doing after living there for one or two years. If you have not already done so can you do some shows on how folks are doing after one or more years of living in a tiny house. I know in my own case Elaine would go crazy if she was trapped in a tiny house with me. How do folks manage to live in tiny houses with children? We have our grandson about every weekend and we turned the largest room in our house as his playroom and it is full of toys. I fear Christmas and his birthday with the additional toys coming in the house. Then the debate on which toys to get rid of.
Please let me know if you have already produced shows on folks surviving a year or more living in a tiny house. We would like to watch those shows.
Thanks!
