Atlas Gives Food Network a Bash

Atlas Media Corp has been given the green light to produce the first season of Behind the Bash!, a new (13x30’) primetime series for Food Network.

Behind The Bash!, which features Giada De Laurentiis, star of Everyday Italian and granddaughter of movie producer Dino De Laurentiis, is scheduled to premiere on Food Network in Q4 2005.

The series follows De Laurentiis as she goes behind the scenes of the glitziest, most glamorous parties in America, showcasing every aspect of the catering.

Bruce David Klein, Atlas Media’s president and exec producer, said Behind the Bash! would offer viewers “a taste of star-studded indulgence.”

Klein also said that Atlas was on the hunt for unique locations and events to be showcased in upcoming episodes of the series. One episode already in the can follows chefs and catering crews as they take on the challenge of preparing the perfect dinner for the 47th Annual Grammy Awards.
