The new Fox Business channel debuted a couple weeks ago, and at first I blew it off as another talking-heads show that did little for the common Joe’s Wall Street appetite.

However, the channel is starting to grow on me. Maybe it’s because it’s new, or maybe it’s because it’s just different.

I particularly like the Fox Business Happy Hour. It’s got a couple young hosts (Cody Willard and Rebecca Gomez) that a guy my age could identify with. They’re out in the open instead of being stuck behind a desk, and the show is set at what appears to be a local bar. Willard also hosts CodyWillard.com in which he writes about life, pop culture, trading, investing, technology, rock, media, getting my heart broken… sounds interesting.

I’ve never really taken to Neil Cavuto, that’s not to say I dislike him, I just never could identify with the guy.

In short, the Fox Business channel seems like a refined cross between Bloomberg and CNBC, both of which have their strong points, but when it comes time to sit down, relax, and enjoy some market discussion, Fox Business seems to fit the bill… at least during Happy Hour.

A little Friday night entertainment.

I’m not sure it gets much better.
