This was a cooking show which aired in the 1960s on NET (National Educational Television), and was revived in the 1970s on PBS after NET was blown up.
Nice little show based on the episodes I've seen. It was a cooking show. I can't cook yet I enjoyed watching it. The host, Julia Child, is strangely engaging as host.
Bizarrely, the episodes, including a large number of 1960s editions, are available Amazon Video....perhaps the only 1960s cooking show to be on a streaming service? But since I live in Australia and Amazon Video isn't available here, I had to make do with a "best of" DVD compilation (god bless you, multi-region DVD players).

I've read about that there was some complaints that she used too much wine in her dishes, and that she sometimes took a sip of the wines she used. I offcourse don't know if any of that is true.

I became a fan of Julia Child and The French Chef in the early to mid 70s when I was a teenage. I watched faithfully every Saturday afternoon for many years.

It was originally posted on the Foods Board in the potatoes thread by NJtoTX . I just love to watch Julia in it and Jacques Pepin is soooooo young ! The tune is quite the "earworm", eh ?

NJtoTXThey did the best job with the Julia Video... words and pictures are perfect ! You seem to be "into" music so that's perhaps why that one works the best !
