Dione Lucas' Gourmet Club
''Dione Lucas’ Gourmet Club'' began airing each week on Tuesdays from 1958–1960 on WPIX-TV (New York), making her the first woman to ever be featured on a cooking show on this station. In addition, this was one of the first television cooking programs in the world. Previously, she had also been featured on ''To The Queen's Taste'' (December 1947 – 1953) on CBS and ''The Dione Lucas Cooking Show'' (1953–1956). This was the first time that efforts were made to appeal to housewives as a way of encouraging chores, such as cooking for the family. Lucas was extremely conservative and always taught her viewers to cook from scratch. Many attempts were made to syndicate the tapes of the series in other parts of the United States and this was one of the few cooking shows to go national during this era. TercioPublishing.

Cooking Show
A cooking show, cookery show, or cooking program (also spelled cooking programme in British English) is a television genre that presents food preparation, often in a restaurant kitchen or on a studio set, or at the host's personal home. Typically the show's host, often a celebrity chef, prepares one or more dishes over the course of an episode, taking the viewing audience through the food's inspiration, preparation, and stages of cooking. Due to time and production constraints, most, if not all, cooking shows employ filming shortcuts such as video editing, food modeling and photography, and prepared ingredients to speed up the cooking process and ensure a smooth and seamless production. Cooking shows have been a popular staple of daytime TV programming since the earliest days of television. They are generally very inexpensive to produce, making them an economically easy way for a TV station to fill a half-hour (or sometimes 60-minute) time slot. A number of cooking shows ...
