Martha Stewart Show Season 5 Details

Homemaking icon Martha Stewart celebrates the handmade and the homemade in the fifth
season of ‘The Martha Stewart Show’ with more entertaining segments that are sure to inform and inspire. On the September 14th premiere of the nationally syndicated, Emmy-winning “how-to” program, distributed by NBC Universal Domestic Television Distribution, (and honored with an additional statue this past weekend at The Daytime Emmy Awards),
Martha launches a new monthly segment, “American Treasures.” This unprecedented look at landmark locations across the country acts as an on-air companion to print stories that will appear in Martha Stewart Living magazine throughout the year. From historic homes and experimental architecture to botanical gardens and endangered sites, “American Treasures”
salutes national gems, many little known, that deserve to be celebrated, and seen. Skylands, Martha’s home in Maine, marks the first stop of the new series. Viewers will get Martha’s personal tour of this extraordinary home, whose previous owners were Edsel and Eleanor Ford.

On September 17th, Martha shares her “New Finds” culled during her trips over the summer months. On October 13th, Martha celebrates the release of her latest book – Martha Stewart’s Dinner at Home with the launch of regular cooking segments dedicated to menus that bring families together. Plus Martha previews the extensive
renovation of executive editorial director of decorating Kevin Sharkey’s new apartment which will be completed next September.
