ESQUIRE NETWORK ORDERS THIRD SEASONS OF ORIGINAL SERIES "KNIFE FIGHT" AND "BREW DOGS"

LOS ANGELES - October 7, 2014 - Esquire Network announced today that it has greenlit third seasons of two original series, KNIFE FIGHT and BREW DOGS. The new seasons are expected to premiere in 2015.

"In our first year, Esquire Network has rolled out a strong slate of original series, and the audience has responded enthusiastically," said Matt Hanna, Head of Original Programming for Esquire Network. "Both KNIFE FIGHT and BREW DOGS increased their audiences in their second seasons by tapping into topics we know our viewers are passionate about - food, drink and travel - in a fresh and distinctive way."

KNIFE FIGHT, hosted by Chef Ilan Hall and produced by Authentic Entertainment and Flower Films, more than doubled its performance with adults 18-49 in its second season, which ends tonight, October 7. For its third season, set to begin production this fall, the underground culinary competition series' 16 episodes will be set on a new coast (New York), in a new location (The Gorbals Brooklyn), and with a new tournament-style format. The new season will also feature judging by award-winning chefs Kris Morningstar and Naomi Pomeroy.

BREW DOGS, from Custom-Redtail Media, has also been ordered for a third season of 10 one-hour episodes. Hosted by Scottish craft-beer renegades James Watt and Martin Dickie, the series outperformed its premiere run in all key demos. For the first time in BREW DOGS history, Season 3 will feature James and Martin traveling outside the U.S. for several episodes, offering a taste of what other countries have to offer in the way of artisanal beers. And in an Esquire Network first, they'll team up for a special crossover episode in Louisville, KY - with Jay and Sean from BEST BARS IN AMERICA.
