IN the county that I live in our cable service (Charter Communications) has never offered The Food Network since we got cable offered to us (I live in the country).
I was flipping through the channels while I was baking and cooking an Thankdgiving Day and saw Sandra lee. I thought to myself, I must be on public television, and she is doing a specila or something..ha haha ha 
. I looked at the bottom of the screen and saw that beautiful Food Network emblem and it was the best day...just kidding! but I was very happy, I guess enought people complained long enough for them to finally do something!
I love Food Network, too! Every night I fall asleep watching it. It's so very nice to know that I won't be woken up by some scary commercial, only by the occasional "Bam!" LOL! My favorite show are Paula Deen's and Alton Brown's. And so many great specials!
My TV stays on that channel, and I record all my favorites. I can't wait for Ace of Cakes to start new episodes in January! 
My grandson calls it the snack channel and when we bake or cook something he really likes he says we should have our own show on the snack channel. I love Food Network, Alton Brown is one of my favorites because I learn so much from him. He explains everything so well.
It is easier to try new recipies when you can see what they are supposed to look like when they are done. Paula Dean is another favorite cause she seems like a great aunt or grandmother letting you in on her cooking secrets.
Food network I think they have really helped people see what is available out there and made it easier for me to do more creative work for people.
