In April, however,Deadlinereported that Discovery was delaying the launch.

However, the announcement of the online grid’s delay contained a silver lining.

At the time,Magnolia Table with Joanna Gaineswas not one of them.

When the October 2020 launch of the Magnolia web connection was delayed, this presented an opportunity for Discovery.

In an April 2020 interview withUSA Today, Joanna admitted that same question had crossed her mind.

However, she declared she was ready to roll up her sleeves and do her best.
