On September 11th, 2001, the E.W. Scripps Company temporarily suspended programming on HGTV, DIY Network and Food Network after the infamous September 11 terrorist attacks. It suspended normal programming with a slide saying "Due to the nature of today's tragic events *insert either Food Network, HGTV or DIY Network* is suspending programming. Our thoughts go out to the victims and their families." while the music Landscapes - De Wolfe was playing.

While most reports seem to suggest that this suspension lasted one day, a single photo of the Food Network slide saying "Due to the nature of Tuesday's tragic events, Food Network is suspending programming. Our thoughts go out to the victims and their families.", that resurfaced on a 9/11 archive website in January 2019 seems to suggest that programming was suspended for at least another day following the attacks.

Numerous short clips of the program suspension exist on YouTube. However, the Food Network and HGTV suspensions are usually brief portions of a much larger channel surf during 9/11, with the DIY Network[1] not having any surviving footage as of 2019. Other than this short clip and the photo, the Food Network television suspension is only existed via short glimpses of channel surfing, unlike the HGTV version, which was uploaded in a longer video capturing the start of the suspension on August 20, 2018. Footage of Food Network in between 12:30-1:30 PM Eastern Time on September 11th is believed to exist as part of 9/11 channel surfs. It is believed that all three of the Scripps networks suspended programming at exactly 1:00 PM Eastern Time with the HGTV suspension of "Appraise It!". It has been stated that Food Network was likely airing reruns of "Two Fat Ladies" when the suspension took place, although this hasn't been confirmed.

It is unknown how long the Food Network suspension was. However, the HGTV suspension was captured as it started. On September 2, 2020, a 4-minute VHS clip of the Food Network suspension was posted onto YouTube, however, unlike the HGTV clip it did not show how the suspension started. On June 7, 2022, a image purportedly showing the DIY Network suspension screen was uploaded to Lost Media Wiki, although further information on the suspensions on both DIY and Food Networks remain scarce at best.
