I was really into the show at first, I was addicted. They really brought some damaged homes back to life. However, after a while, it was the same exact thing over and over again. Painting the bricks outside the house (which is usually ugly), opening up a wall, crown molding, painting the fireplace white, putting in hardwood floors, putting in white counters all the way to the ceiling, putting in black counter tops, putting in french doors, and spending every penny of their money even though in EVERY single episode there is an issue where they have to spend more money. Everything in this show is WAY overpriced. Any charm that is in the house is taken out unless it's the hardwood floors or french doors. It's not a very informative show: it teaches you nothing about renovations except that Joanna does the same design in every single episode. I am from Texas and know that area, and I know that with as much money as these people spend, they should get something more spectacular.
