Bar Rescue(TV-Show/Serie, 2011-)

Bar Rescue is an American reality television series that airs on Paramount Network (formerly Spike during the first five seasons). It stars Jon Taffer, a long-time food and beverage industry consultant specializing in nightclubs, bars and pubs. Taffer offers his professional expertise, renovations and equipment to desperately failing bars in an effort to save them from closing. The show premiered on what was then known as Spike in the United States on July 17, 2011. In the UK, the show originally aired on 5Star, later moving to Spike (UK), which is now 5Spike/5Action. A spin-off series titled Marriage Rescue premiered on June 2, 2019. On September 22, 2020, it was announced that the series would move to another ViacomCBS (Now Paramount) network, as part of a since-rescinded plan to shift the Paramount Network to television films and miniseries. Bar Rescue's move also never took place, as its eighth season premiered on Paramount Network on May 2, 2021. The eighth season focused on Taffer's residence of Las Vegas, a city whose hospitality industry was devastated during the COVID-19 pandemic, then returned with episodes of bars throughout the United States in its traditional format on March 20, 2022.
