Television Overview | DIY Network
One of the most commonly referenced TV Stations on the Barn Light Electric Co.®blog is the DIY Network (Do It Yourself). DIY Network was created from the same teams that made HGTV and Food Network. DIY Network ‘s programs feature home improvement and landscaping experts who offer creative, do-it-yourself projects and solutions for homeowners.
Popular shows on DIY include Garage Mahal, hosted by former wrestling star, Bill Goldberg and licensed contractor and organizer, Brian Corsetti. On Garage Mahal, Goldberg and a crew of experts transform disorganized garages into spectacular living spaces. Barn Light Electric Co.® supplied custom made track lighting featuring Deep Bowl Shades for Jay Leno’s garage. Barn Light Electric Co.® also supplied vintage industrial lights for the following Garage Mahal episodes: Soap Stars Gym, 50′s Hot Rod Garage, Airplane Hangar, Bill Goldberg’s Garage and Hot Rod Magazine.
In addition to DIY Networks’ original series, the programming schedule also includes reruns of the series This Old House.
Currently, DIY Network is one of the fastest growing networks in the United States and it airs in approximately 50 million homes.
