Marta Balaga Italian production company Lux Vide, also behind “Medici” and “Leonardo,” will make its first move into unscripted TV with “Italian Food Tour.” TikTok’s “Condiment Claire” Dinhut and chef Max Mariola will co-host the 12-episode show, exploring culinary – and cultural – characteristics of various Italian regions. Introduced to international buyers during MIA Market, “Italian Food Tour” will start shooting in the spring. Antonio Azzalini has been tapped as showrunner. “At Lux Vide, we like to promote our country. Also because Italians are so bad at marketing,” CEO Luca Bernabei tells Variety at the show’s unveiling in Rome. The company was acquired by Fremantle in March.
“Our productions take place in different spots in Italy because we try to take advantage of its beauty. Now, we will go everywhere from Palermo to Naples and Florence, experiencing all these cities and the food they have to offer.” Finding the right people who could lead the way was crucial, he says, ultimately setting his sight on the unlikely pairing of Dinhut and Mariola. “Not all chefs are nice. Some approach cooking like a surgical procedure, but Max is from Rome. He is fun and he likes to talk about food. He actually talks way too much, which is very Italian,” he laughs. “Max loves to cook, Claire loves to eat. It’s perfect.” Mariola is the main face of Sky’s Gambero Rosso Channel.

Scott Disick hasn't been kicked of just yet! In Thursday's episode of the family's Hulu series, the father of three and Kourtney Kardashian's ex made his first appearance of the season. Scott is seen meeting up with Kendall Jenner to discuss her new-found passion for flipping houses — a logical connection as Scott briefly had his own spin-off series, . Scott offers Kendall some advice and the conversation then turns to Kim Kardashian's then beau, Pete Davidson, heading to space. Fans might remember that Pete and Scott seemingly hit it off during Kim's nine-month romance with the comedian, and shared snapshots of themselves having fun together.

In an interview on the podcast earlier this month, Kourtney said she had «no idea» if Scott would be featured on season 2 of the show. «I was upset they chose to take my fairytale and include that part of it,» she admitted.
