Love at First Bite Slated for FYI

Panna is launching the seven-episode new series Love at First Bite on FYI, marking the cooking brand’s first foray into long-form, linear programming.

The series will premiere Monday, January 22, at 10 p.m. Each 30-minute episode follows a couple who met, fell in love and followed their passion for food and creativity by opening a restaurant together.

“We are thrilled to be expanding our storytelling to long-form television with this culinary love story that follows two people who meet, fall in love and follow their passion for food and creativity,” said David Ellner, the founder and CEO of Panna. “At Panna, our passion is cooking and this is a natural extension of our core business. We’re excited to share their stories with the FYI audience, and deepen our relationship with A+E Networks.”

“We are thrilled with this collaboration which brings Panna’s premium long-form storytelling to a new home FYI,” added Gena McCarthy, the executive VP of development and programming at FYI.
