Murder House Flip

I love the hosts honesty, integrity, and creativity. The format, though unusual, is quick and digestible.

If true crime and renovation ideas are your thing, check it out!

You can watch any other reno show and they're all doing the same things: granite counters, white walls, shiplap slapped up to cover a variety of ills, and well... The homes in these are pretty much interchangeable.

What I like so much about this show is nothing is cookie cutter at all. The accent wall they did in one home, where they tacked wood strips onto the wall was nothing short of fantastic! And to use black paint in the dining room and foyer? I didn't think that would work at all, but by the time they were done, it looked so darn great!

I also like it when they ask the owners of the home what THEY want, rather than telling them what they want.

The other reno shows can learn from this one. How about NOT using Carrera marble? How about NOT using shiplap on every wall in the house and ceiling? How about NOT painting every wall either white or beige?

I live in a smaller home and am always on the lookout for ways to work with my space and this show does such a GREAT job of renovating based on the space, rather than what THEY like.

I so wanted to love this show, but it was clearly created by people who watch too much HGTV and not nearly enough ID.

Maybe add a medium or retired homicide detective to the cast and a little more of the crime history and they'll have a show.

Given the way we sensationalize murders today, are you surprised that this series exists? These folks are providing a fantastic service. They are helping to remove some of the psychological trauma from living in homes where murder has occurred. I hope they spawn a whole industry. Many people weren't told about the event before they moved in. Some didn't find out until closing on the home.

I'm a true crime junkie and renovation show fan, so i had high hopes for this show. But it does neither genre well. The short format is extremely annoying. It's like having long commercials constantly. The show has potential, just the execution falls very flat.
