cookingchannel (.cookingchannel)

.cookingchannel is a generic top-level domain (gTLD) that was originally intended for the Food Network's online brand. It was sponsored by Lifestyle Domain Holdings, Inc., which secured the delegation in June 2016. The domain never made it into the root zone, meaning it was never actually usable on the internet. In June 2023, ICANN revoked the delegation entirely, effectively canceling the TLD. There were no specific eligibility restrictions beyond the registry's own policies, but since it never went live, no registrations were ever possible. The TLD's registration date was May 5, 2016, and it was removed from the root zone less than seven years later.
