You’ve probably seen TV shows and news broadcasts attempt to incorporate Facebook and other forms of social media into their content in all sorts of ways — some successfully, some not so much.
But NBC Philadelphia and social media agency Bradford Media Group, which has regional offices in West Chester, are trying a new way to bring social media to television.
The pair premiered Life Around Home, a new project to create television programming entirely driven by the conversations taking place on the show’s Facebook page last week, according to a press release. The show aired on Philadelphia NBC Nonstop, the station’s 24-hour cable channel, which features some original programing on loop.
The new show is hosted by TV personality and home expert Marie Louise Ludwig. Content is geared toward women and will feature a slew of lifestyle experts who will focus on organic living, DIY Projects, cooking, life celebrations, fitness, fashion and parenting, according to a release.
Here’s a video introduction to the new show:
