HGTV sharing 'Secrets'

HGTV has greenlit “Secrets From a Stylist,” featuring “Design Star” winner Emily Henderson.

Cabler aired a backdoor pilot in August in which Henderson offered a “style diagnostic” for each client, and was necessary to advise them on a proper room design. Skein, to be shot in Los Angeles and produced by Tricon Films of Toronto, will premiere in 2011.

“While Emily started the HGTV ‘Design Star’ competition as an underdog, our viewers loved her earnest approach and cheered for her as she became a more confident competitor,” said Freddy James, senior VP of program development and production at HGTV.  “In the end, her strength as a designer propeled her to win the competition and we anticipate that her new show will be well received.”
