The New Orleans Convention and Visitors Bureau has secured time on the Travel Channel during the month of July to showcase its city. Over the next four weekends, "Forever New Orleans TV," created and hosted by Emmy award-winning reporter Karen Carlson, showcases the city's culture, restaurants, attractions, accommodations and most of all, the spirit and resilience of New Orleanians. 
So watch on Sunday mornings (8:30 a.m. Eastern and Pacific, 7:30 a.m. Central), or search for "New Orleans TV" on your digital video recorder. Here is the schedule for July.
July 6: Voluntourism
The hurricane may have brought a lot of destruction to the gulf coast, but it has also brought a groundswell of kindness from all over the country and all over the world.
July 13: Sportsman's Paradise
You wouldn't know it was so close to the city, but a natural oasis exists within an hour's drive of New Orleans.
July 20: La Nouvelle New Orleans
They may not pronounce the names of streets the same way, but France and New Orleans have a special relationship that neither time nor storm could tear apart.
July 27: Sugar and Spice
We eat and cook with Chef Paul Prudhomme - the man who essentially created the demand for Cajun spices worldwide, visit a one-of-a-kind confectionary and make other stops in the city.
