Rock the Block

I love all the other designers, but can't stand the egotistical Allison. She's so in love with herself, lots of "I's and me's". Her outdoor space sucked.

I do like this show but agree with other peeps. why tear out all that stuff. such a waste. The worse thing about the show is Allison Victoria. I stopped watching windy city rehab cuz of her. I will watch this show til the end but if she wins, karma is not working.

I'm writing about the second season. Would been fair to see the actual final prizes that all the houses were sold for. Buying a house is driven largely on emotion and houses with a more narrow target audience can actually push the prize much higher because of the lack of options on the market for that audience. Would have been a fair finale that way. At the moment second season teaches us that design and function is overrated and you should buy a house marked down on a paper.

The cast and concept was great on second season. What was not so great was the ever so loud host and the editing made me feel like it was done under drugs. Basically the grew and the cast didn't match. Also what's up with people wearing same clothes for months. I hope it was because of editing reasons not because they think we as an audience can't recognize people in new clothes.

By 15 minutes into this series, I was shocked by the total waste of materials taken from these houses. Brand new tubs, cabinets, etc. were ripped out and taken to the dump! And wasted space! Leanne tore out a wall to make this gigantic bathroom....does a bathroom really have to be the size of a living room? And Mina apparently hasn't been watching the news, and doesn't know California is going through an horrific drought, so she puts in a shower with four jets, which the inspector told her to take them out, but she left them in anyway.(each uses 13 gallons a minute). There was the usual tough talk from them all, which gets a little old after a while. We'll keep watching (we really like Jasmine), but it's really just the same-old-same-old.

I used to watch Windy City Rehab. Never again. Alison takes obnoxious and arrogant to a whole new unwatchable level.
