Justin Warner's Show Not To Premiere Until Next Year

Justin Warner Food Network Star
Yumsugar had an interview with Alton Brown where he revealed some details about the show he is producing for Food Network Star winner Justin Warner.  When Justin won, it was stated that his show would air 'in the Fall.'  Well, Fall has arrived, and it now seems that his show will not air until next year 'in the Winter.'  Rather than being slotted in the normal Sunday morning slot of past Food Network Star winners, Justin's show will be a prime time show.

The working title is Justin's Excellent Adventure, and instead of being an instructional show, it would feature Justin traveling across the country on an adventure.  Earlier this month, Justin tweeted to his followers asking if he should do a day time or prime time show, so apparently he may have had an option between the two (that tweet has since been removed from his page).  Also, Alton Brown revealed that he will be a mentor again on the Food Network Star, so it looks like they are sticking with the mentor approach for next season.

What are your thoughts on the show idea for Justin?  Are you looking forward to it?
