Review by mrnerdymcgee

At the time of this writing, there was only one other positive review of this program. Most of the negative comments lamented that this show is not The Repair Shop, as though that were some kind of punishable offense. But, really, the fact that Saved and Remade is not a direct copy of the staid, soporific Repair Shop is a large part of its appeal. I don't mind that the experience levels of the cast of artisans varies widely. That, too, contributes to its appeal. There's a demonstrable sincerity with which some of the less experienced artisans approach tasks that I find charming and thoroughly watchable. If you're expecting The Repair Shop, maybe just watch The Repair Shop. If you're not looking for a televisual sleep aid, however, Saved and Remade is a pretty entertaining and sometimes informative show.
