Actress Eva Longoria is taking a food-focused trip through Spain in her new CNN Original Series, Eva Longoria: Searching for Spain. The eight-part series premieres on Sunday, April 27 at 9 pm ET/PT on CNN.
Here’s the Lowdown: Longoria, known for her acting, producing, directing, and activism, will explore Spanish cuisine and culture, tracing her family history. She’ll sample everything from pintxos in San Sebastián to Catalan prawns in Barcelona and the classic Spanish tortilla in Madrid. The show is produced by Cris Abrego’s and Longoria’s Hyphenate Media Group.
What This Means Now: Fans of food and travel shows have a new series to check out, and those interested in Spanish culture and Longoria’s heritage will get an inside look. The series follows the success of CNN’s previous Searching For series, Searching for Italy and Searching for Mexico.
The Bigger Picture: This series builds on CNN’s growing library of food and travel content. Longoria’s personal connection to Spain, including visiting her ancestral town of Longoria and hosting a feast in her new Marbella home, adds a unique personal touch. The show will be available to stream live for pay-TV subscribers via CNN.com and CNN apps on April 27, with on-demand viewing starting April 28.
