Ugliest House in America

Retta is the greatest thing about this show! She's really funny and her commentary and reactions are enjoyable to watch. I really enjoyed season one. It was new and different. However, in the most recent season (aired early Jan 2023) they're showing mostly giant houses owned by upper middle class people that really are not that ugly. I'm sure they could find truly ugly houses - perhaps with people who really need the $ for the renovation. I like the rapport between Retta and Alison Victoria in the final episode of each season; however, the biggest drawback for me is Allison Victoria's designs at the end of the season. She basically takes away all the charm of the house and makes it as bland as possible. Disappointing after all the build up.

HGTV can afford to renovate all these ugly houses. Do it !!!

Don't leave these houses ugly. Fixing 1 isn't enough. 11 more houses to fix.

HGTV can afford to renovate all these ugly houses.

It's not unusual for the ugliest house, not to be chosen. I can only imagine that's because it would take a whole lot more than $150,000 to redo those homes. So I kind of feel bad for the owners of the really ugly homes, but then again, nobody forced them to buy those places, so they kind of did it to themselves. I would love to hear the stories of the people who actually designed those homes to be so ugly. Of course, they would probably be too embarrassed to go on TV. It might be interesting down the road to have episodes showing how the houses that weren't picked might have been updated.

Show is still entertaining.

Let's be real. They picked the house that they thought would be the easiest to design and gain all this glory.

Binged watch season two to see what it was all about and it was the biggest disappointment ever. The only great part was the host Retta.

Let's truly pick the ugliest!!! Let the viewers decide. Come on, make this a REAL challenge. Let the viewers vote and really see how good of a designer she is. Not "Let's pick the one we know we can design the easiest because it is not much work".

Just my opinion and will not waste time watching season one or any other.

They get a $150,000 for the renovation. Some of the houses are going to take a lot more than $150,000. So that eliminates some of the houses. Like this first season one house would of taken $500,000 easy.
