Home & Garden Television (HGTV) offers 24-hour programming solely about home and garden topics in five categories: gardening and landscaping, building and remodeling, crafts and hobbies, interior design and decorating, and lifestyle and special interest. This national network launched on December 30, 1994 and remains one of the fastest growing cable networks. HGTV's mission is to provide comprehensive information to inspire the home enthusiast. The creation of E.W. Scripps President and COO Ken Lowe, a former architect and avid do-it-yourselfer, the network is headquartered in Knoxville, TN, along with Scripps Productions, the in-house production company. The network's additional offices are located in New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago, and Detroit. Viewers of the network can see about 35 informational shows per day and approximately six specials per week. Many of the shows travel to exotic locations and book guests, including some of America's most renowned home builders, re-modelers, decorators, interior designers, gardeners, craft experts, and lifestyle hosts, as well as celebrity guests who offer their homemaking advice and tips. HGTV is distributed to more than 92 million households in the United States. Internationally, the network is seen in Canada, Japan, Australia, Thailand, Hungary, the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic and the Philippines. It is wholly owned by Scripps Networks, Inc., which also operates The Food Network, Do It Yourself (DIY) network, and Fine Living. HGTV has strict guidelines about pitching products, story ideas, and guests to any of its shows. According to network executives, there is only one way to pitch a story idea, and that is by going to the story idea Web page at http://resourcedirectory.hgtv.com. The network strongly states this is the only way to submit a story idea for an HGTV show. However, many producers of the shows that appear on the network are very open to receiving press releases, as well. These producers generally select the show topics, locations, and guests, and are responsible for product placements. PR professionals are advised to contact the producer of the individual show with any show and location ideas, events listings, product placement opportunities, industry awards, company profiles, personality appearances, and how-to information. As a service to its clients, Cision lists the direct contact information of the production companies within each show's profile, if available.
