Tidying Up with Marie Kondo

I love that this show focuses on useful tips and strategies where "clients" are shown how to make better use of their own resources and objects without themselves or production team spending thousands of dollars on renovations. Some viewers may have difficulty with cultural differences and language barrier. It seems that this is a show more about the philosophy than about home improvement; however, the show does a great job of highlighting the interconnection between clutter and daily stress of clients. Each episode has specific strategies for difficult categories.

The show is a joy to watch, especially contrasted against most reality TV. Marie seems genuinely interested and invested in each participant's success. Participants are also relatable, not just extreme or unusual cases.

It s a solid entry into the quickly growing pleasant/heart-warming reality TV sub-genre.

I find Marie to be a calming and sweet host and I really don't mind the subtitles. I appreciate that she doesn't shame the families she's working with, and I like that she doesn't force them to throw everything away in 48 hours or something ridiculous. A sweet, simple, and realistic show.

This is a solid show. Disregard those whiny imbeciles at the bottom complaining about "language barrier". That's your big complaint? Reading text? Give me a break! This show is a good incentive to clean up for people who are dealing with clutter and organizing issues. I understand reality shows get a bad rep but this inspires people to change their lives for the better. All for it!

Loved the first episode the Friend family so adorable for a reality show it seemed quite genuine and believable. Marie has a great aura and personality its no wonder she has become such a global phenomena. Did struggle with the sub titles I wish they would put them in black background impossible to read most of the time. LOOK fwd to watching other episodes.
