Rebrand to Cooking Channel
In October 2009, it was announced that Fine Living Network would be rebranded as Cooking Channel, with content similar to sister channel Food Network. The original plan was to implement the change in the fall of 2010,[1] but it was later announced that the switch was being moved up to happen on May 31, 2010 to coincide with Memorial Day.[2]
