Love It or List It Vacation Homes

This show should be a good one for the genre, but is ruined through leaning WAY too hard into the manufactured drama.

Where there should be a friendly rivalry between the two hosts, it is a presented as an all out competition where the goal of finding the best solution for the owners is completely irrelevant.

The couples give no compromise with the 'love it' partner pointing out everything they don't like about a house, even where easily changed. The 'list it' partner will be illogical, demanding features of the existing house that don't seem to be an issue where the same problem is replicated in a house they tour. You find yourself wondering if the couples will be divorced by the end. The most bizarre aspect is Elisa is openly disrespectful to everyone, which is a choice the producers must have gone with and makes her very unlikable.

The homes are lovely to see, but the format of the show, particularly the complete lack of chemistry between the two hosts make it very easy to see why this show was quickly cancelled.
