I guess if you get kicked off of everyone else's shows you can make a comeback if you can start your own network. This will be an internet subscriber based network launching in September and Deen was able to attract $100 million in private equity investment. You can turn off your TV y'all! I think I'll keep Netflix and pass on the $7.99 month fee.  |

I will pass as well - not because of what she has done - I won't pay $7.99 for an internet subscription to get recipes I can find anywhere.
Is the content going to be anything but cooking?

I like Paula Deen, but I don't like her enough to spend $7.99 a month for an internet subscription.
Too many free sites out there...

I won't be paying either. The recipes will eventually turn up elsewhere.

I like her as well, but definitely not paying that when there are so many free resources out there.

Even if I had a deep desire for Death by Butter, I would not subscribe. There are to many sources for recipes and cooking shows, that are easy to access without having to pay extra, above and beyond cable and internet. I can't see this going well, but who knows, it might succeed. Not something that I would risk investing my money in.

We will not be subscribing either.
Guys, I was born and raised in GA and I have to admit that her voice just grates on me. I hope that people do not think that all southerners sound like her. Believe me, we do not!

Believe me, we do not! Yeah, I lived in Savannah for three years and lived in different parts Georgia for over 25 years, even deep south Georgia. You do hear it some, but not often and usually the drawl is not near as severe as Paulas. Hers is more than a bit over done. |

Yeah, I think I will take a pass too. Besides my monthly cost for DISH network, I also have Hulu Plus, Netflix and the yearly fee for Amazon Prime. How many subscriptions does anyone want? At least the ones I pay for have a variety of options, including lots of cooking shows. I have nothing against her but that's way too much for her programming, whatever it is. I might pay $10 a year to check it out but not a month if I don't want to lock-in for a full year or six months.

Heck we didn't want to spend that kind of money for a 2 peas subscription why would we want to see Paula Deen. Remember when we talked about paying to use the Two Peas site and no one who posted wanted to spend the money?

I didn't pay any attention to her before the crap storm, her recipes are heart stoppers. I wouldn't pay $7.99 a month to see anyone, or to get any recipes. It will be interesting to see how well this takes off.

I wouldn't pay to see Paula. or Oprah or any other "celeb" who has their own channel. I like her but only on a free level. there are way too many other options out there to pay for anything other than netflix.

Yeah, I will not be subscribing. I don't see this going well for her. There's too much out there for free or from services I am already paying for. |

Won't be subscribing and don't think it will do well, but not because the "foodie wave" is dying down. I think most people are just looking for healthier options. I enjoy her son's show on the Cooking Channel.

I'd watch it if it were free, and I won't watch Oprah even if her's is free.

Yeah, no. Ridiculousness. I never was a fan anyway, before all that awful stuff came out. Never liked her recipes, or her annoying accent. I love a Southern drawl, but hers always seemed overly...put on to me.
I felt sorry for her when she was going around crying, but really, I'm over her now.

I've never heard anyone with that much of a drawl. |
