Fixer Upper

This show is entertaining for the first few times you watch it. Then after while you realize that these two are one trick ponies.

They certainly seem like wonderful people and they are very talented. The houses they renovate are done beautifully. But the problem here is that, like the Property Brothers, everything they do looks alike.

They love shabby chic. They love beige and gray and taupe. Looking at one of the houses they do is like looking at a black and white or sepia photo.

I would be impressed if they could show a little range. If they could do something other than shabby chic/country and if they could use some color in their houses.

I do not agree with the other 2 negative reviews. It is not a one trick pony show. The title and theme of the show IS fixer upper. So surprise! They renovate fixer uppers. The designs are NOT the same. Each episode offers something different. None of the houses have the same theme, design style, nor exterior. Obviously, they are designing for clients. No two couples are the same. They offer a lot of helpful design and renovation tips. I love re-purposing items. Plus, they are so genuine. I think they are an adorable couple! They also have adorable children and an amazing 100 year old renovated farm home. So charming! Love it! If you enjoy watching old homes come back to life, then you will enjoy this show!

I was really into the show at first, I was addicted. They really brought some damaged homes back to life. However, after a while, it was the same exact thing over and over again. Painting the bricks outside the house (which is usually ugly), opening up a wall, crown molding, painting the fireplace white, putting in hardwood floors, putting in white counters all the way to the ceiling, putting in black counter tops, putting in french doors, and spending every penny of their money even though in EVERY single episode there is an issue where they have to spend more money. Everything in this show is WAY overpriced. Any charm that is in the house is taken out unless it's the hardwood floors or french doors. It's not a very informative show: it teaches you nothing about renovations except that Joanna does the same design in every single episode. I am from Texas and know that area, and I know that with as much money as these people spend, they should get something more spectacular.

I just love this show!! I think Chip is hysterical! Those who don't are just boring people that live boring lives. Joanna is priceless and so talented. I love how she decorates and she seems to find the most unique decorations. Plus, her eye for how to improve the layout of a home is amazing. They take a dilapidated house and turn it into a true dream house. I don't see how they do all that they do for really...such a small amount of money. They are just magicians. Chip's skill and craftsmanship is amazing too. It is so rewarding to see a loving, funny and talented family on TV. I can't get enough of it! I hope this show stays on the air for a long time!!! Kudos to Chip and Joanna Gaines.

Great show! They do awesome work, the banter is fun, the reruns are watchable.

The Harp house was incredible!! Most people would never have seen the potential in that house!!

I don't get the complaints of a one trick pony, each house is unique with its own set of problems.

It's a renovation show that isn't dry and boring! Chip reminds me of the guys I grew up knowing in our family woodworking business. It's fun to see the kids. It's fun to see their house. It's fun to see the client's response. I love how they stick to their community and invite people to the farm.

It's a fun show!
