January 30 - February 5, 2022 WHATS UP! T7 BY MICHELLE ROSE TV Media S everal made-in-Canada series seem to have found homes stateside in recent days — from CBC's "Fridge Wars" to Food Network Canada's "Great Choc- olate Showdown," both of which have been picked up by the CBS- owned CW network. Canada's latest culinary TV export is the CTV Life Channel series "Mary Makes It Easy," premiering stateside on Satur- day, Feb. 5, when it joins Food Network's weekend daytime lineup. It's probably more accurate to say that the show's enthusiastic host, Mary Berg, is the true ex- port here, however. The "MasterChef Canada" winner is already a bestselling cookbook author and award- winning TV personality in her home country, but despite her reputation as Canada's culinary sweetheart, Berg's fun approach to stress-free cooking clearly has a universal appeal — one that Food Network executives hope will resonate with American au- diences, too. In a statement, network presi- dent Courtney White said, "We are excited to add 'Mary Makes It Easy' to our 'In The Kitchen' programming lineup. Food Net- work viewers are always look- ing for new ways to make their time in the kitchen effortless, and Mary Berg is an expert in this area — full of culinary knowledge, accessible recipes and helpful takeaways for mak- ing flavorful and stress-free meals." All 13 half-hour episodes of "Mary Makes It Easy" were filmed in Berg's home kitchen in Toronto, where she serves up tried-and-true tips and tricks that will instill confidence in ev- ery home cook, no matter your skill level. Got a fridge full of leftovers? Struggling with meal planning? Tired of lackluster chicken recipes? Mary seems to have an easy fix for every cook- ing woe. As Berg explains, "With 'Mary Makes It Easy,' I really wanted to think of the things that I have challenges with, and that every- body has challenges with in the kitchen. I've created recipes that specifically solve these cooking conundrums, to make the cook- ing process from prep to serving as easy as possible." "Mary Makes It Easy" de- buted last year in Canada, and there's no word yet on whether there will be a second season up north (and, by extension, in the states). For now, American viewers are invited to tune in to Season 1 on Food Network every Satur- day beginning Feb. 5.
