The Flipping El Moussas

I loved the original Flip or Flop and frequently watch the reruns. Great LA scenery, beautifully filmed and produced, interesting properties and contractors with intriguing hosts. This is about as far as you can get from Flip or Flop with the same cast of characters (excepting one big one). It's not the loss of Christina per se, it's the focus of the show. The original focus was on the challenge of making money under unexpected conditions and trying circumstances. The focus of this show is the trip to the gynecologist for Heather Rae. And at the end of the hour, we don't even know if they turned a profit. I'd love to rant more but I've hit my minimum word limit. I will not watch this show again.

Although I usually like Tarek, I find everything about her extremely annoying - her voice, her "glamorous" look, how little she actually brings to the show. Despite his talking about her 'amazing' ability to style the houses, they have actually brought in someone to do that and all she does is agree with him. Why is she even involved with the show? I watched his other shows as I found the actual work on the houses interesting, I couldn't possibly care less about her pregnancy saga. I also find his self-promoting of his business aggravating. I started to count how many times he says "Tarek buys houses". On his "Flipping 101" show, he stresses how the flippers need to be there, overseeing every part of the flip. But on this show, they don't show up for weeks and are then surprised how little is done. I watched the first 2 but won't watch any other.

What a total disappointment. Heather is supposed to be a realtor but she is just awful. Goes to filthy houses in designer clothes. Her knowledge is just a joke. And I do believe we counted her say "love it" 37 times. And let's not talk about she whines until she gets what she wants ex her office. She needs a huge office? For what? She's definitely not a designer. Has no knowledge of design. She is just a Christina wannabe. Does her hair like Christina has to have a dog like her. Etc etc etc HGTV thought wrong that this would be a hit. Definitely not. Definitely the biggest flop ever ....Get rid of Heather or cancel the show.

I loved the old flipping show with his ex-wife. But this one just sucks! They spend more time kissing and Tweeting for publicity than working on the flip. And I don't need to see their 'feel the baby' game every five minutes. I was just highly disappointed.

And the wife. She's supposed to be a realtor but she's totally clueless about how much it costs to renovate houses. How is that possible? I think we've been lied to on this.

And multi-million dollar flips? I want to see homes that I could aspire to own one day. I don't want to see a $2+ Million dollar home that they're fixing up to sell for $3+ Million. Regular people can barely cover the bills and buy groceries these days. I think it was just the wrong time to do a flipping show catering to Millionaires.

Who wants to watch a house flipping show that features a 40 year old woman sprawled on a bed calling her husband daddy?

Who wants to watch a house flipping show where the "designer" shows up mid-demo in stiletto high heels clutching a precious pockabook?

Who wants to watch a house flipping show where the "blonde" shows up with her her equally "blonde" friends who mince around and preen for the cameras?

She's not even a designer but she takes credit for the finished design. She's supposed to be a realtor but when they go over the figures she's amazed that there are such things as a realtor commission and closing costs.
