Fixer Upper: Welcome Home

Here's the problem. Chip Gains used to be slightly funny. Unfortunately, with this new show he's morphed into a moronic fool. It's all about him and his antics. The show is no longer watchable.

I've seen most of their original series on HGTV, and now the first three new episodes on their Magnolia Network. Chip Gaines has grown increasingly juvenile. His childish antics, verbal and physical, have just become so tiresome, and primarily time filling; not contributing to the content. I'm sure he's a talented builder, and luckily there is at least that. Speaking of talented, Joanna seems to be a talented designer and has good vision when it comes to remodeling. But OMG, I am so tired of the whites and creams! :( Just watched the episode (S1 E3) where the young woman asked for a European cottage look. I've lived in Europe for years. A brick paver floor, a few wooden doors, and a couple of arches does not a European cottage make, with all of that white and cream! Looked very Scandinavian, as so many of their interiors do, and it just isn't fresh or new any more. The young woman was very happy, but then this is her first house with help from her parents and certainly more of anything she'd been living in up to that point in her young life on her own. Kind of goofy background music as well, that doesn't seem to fit the content and can be distracting. Yes, we know you're in Texas. Really was hoping for a new vision, evolved choices in color, but seems like more of the same and it's disappointing. I'm certain they don't care what I think on IMDb, but it's my honest opinion, nothing more, nothing less. They will be just fine, and still a big deal in Waco, and fans everywhere. I wish them well.

I have always been a fan of Fixer Upper and was sad when it ended. Hearing that a new series was coming made me so Happy. And they have Not disappointed!!! Each episode is so different from the one before. I like that the homeowners have already purchased the home rather than being given options. Great series and I Can't wait to see what they have in store!!!

I don't understand the low ratings and the complaints. I don't miss looking at three ugly houses from which the home owner chose. I believe this show has the same "feel" as the original Fixer Upper. I will say that there is too much talking, but that is an easy fix; they need more action and less talking, especially concerning silly old Chip... PS Chip, please wash and style your hair!

Love the new version of Fixer Upper. Episodes are longer, they have the house already picked out so even more design/fixer time, and so much more CHIP being hilarious. They must have edited him before. Watching him wrestle a tree for 5 minutes was hilarious. Loved it. Also her styling is evolving and it's great to see.
