The chew

The Chew is an American talk show/cooking show that airs in the United States on the ABC as part of the network's weekday daytime lineup. The name and format was inspired by the talk show The View, though centering on food-related and lifestyle topics. Each episode has its own titled based upon the episode's theme. The program also airs in Canada on the stations of the Citytv television system. The show is recorded at ABC Studio 40 West 66th Street, New York.

It premiered on September 26, 2011[1] and replaced the soap opera All My Children.[2] It is hosted by Iron Chef America's Mario Batali and Michael Symon, Top Chef's Carla Hall, What Not to Wear's Clinton Kelly (who introduces the guests and welcomes everyone to the show) and Dr. Mehmet Oz's daughter, author and wellness enthusiast Daphne Oz.

Evette Rios (formerly one of the host's "buddies" on Rachael Ray), Marc Summers (host of the Food Network series Unwrapped and former host of Double Dare), former Food Network personality Danny Boome and Jason Roberts serve as correspondents for taped segments.[3]

Guest co-hosts have included Emeril Lagasse, Scott Conant, Sunny Anderson and Evette Rios.

The show is produced by British-Australian former talk show host Gordon Elliott[4], who also serves as the show's off-camera announcer.

On April 11, 2012, ABC announced that The Chew has been officially renewed for a second season.[5]
