MY PERFECT DAY, INSPIRATIONAL STREAMING SERIES HOSTED BY WOMAN’S DAY EDITOR-IN-CHIEF MEAGHAN MURPHY, DEBUTS AUGUST 22 ON VERY LOCAL APP

Collaboration Between Hearst Magazines’ Woman’s Day and Hearst Television’s Very Local Streaming Platform Invites Guests – and Viewers — to Have a “Perfect Day”

NEW YORK, Aug. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Woman’s Day and the Very Local streaming service have teamed up to create a new inspirational series in which deserving people are treated to a “perfect day.”

In each half-hour episode of My Perfect Day with Woman’s Day, Meaghan Murphy, author and editor-in-chief of Woman’s Day, surprises deserving folks — nominated by their loved ones — from all walks of life with bucket-list experiences, life-changing gifts and big emotions.

“What the world needs now is more feel-good TV,” Murphy said.  “I dare you to watch My Perfect Day without tissues on hand. You will laugh, and you will definitely cry. Getting to play fairy godmother to spread joy one ‘Yay!’ at a time was a dream come true. We got to surprise some truly deserving and inspiring people with their own ‘Yay!’ day.”

Among the inspirational heroes are a Special Olympian; a tireless champion for the unhoused; a resilient cancer survivor; a devoted animal-rescue advocate; a 10-year-old philanthropist; and a hardworking nurse rebounding from painful tragedy.  Each is from the Kansas City, Missouri, area, where the series was filmed and where Very Local parent Hearst Television owns the ABC-affiliated station, KMBC-TV.

The six-episode series debuts August 22 exclusively on the Very Local app, available on all mobile and connected TV devices, and is accompanied by an eight-page feature in the August/September 2024 My Perfect Day special issue of Woman’s Day, kicking off a new regular column. The issue is on newsstands now.

This premiere marks a continuation of the streaming collaboration between Hearst’s Magazines and Television divisions, including titles like Esquire-branded In Transit, a series showcasing the sights, sounds, cuisine and style of cities across the country, as well as America’s Most Delish: Midwest, a series highlighting the quintessential foods of the Midwest.

“One of the most powerful experiences local broadcast news can offer a community is to highlight its champions – a hallmark of Hearst Television’s award-winning newscasts and related local programing. My Perfect Day brings this focus to a new streaming title in partnership with Woman’s Day, not only celebrating but also rewarding these people making a difference in their community,” said Andrew Fitzgerald, senior vice president, streaming services, for Hearst Television and general manager of Very Local. “Meaghan, a trusted, beloved and truly inspirational voice, and her thoughtfully selected nominees bring this series to life.  We think viewers will find My Perfect Day a heartwarming experience befitting the iconic Woman’s Day brand, bringing its sensibility to local communities.”
