I have a new addiction to these home remakes. I'm a tile, wood floor, traditional, classic type, but not really modern as these are. They are beautiful, but identify much more with old. If its antique and can be refurbed then it's for me. Colonial, victorian maybe. The one area that I probably favor new is windows vs the old wood. The one I watched recently was "Galveston" something or other. A fair amount of recycled stuff with the modern. Holmes & Holmes I like for the pa's experience. You don't necessarily have to be there doing the grunt work, but the show with the twin brothers, well they're wearing these new and clean shirts and it looks phony seeing them working. They are remodeling some really good looking homes and the turnaround I don't see. In a little way if the decorations are making the home than that's a problem to me. I like trim, and while painted walls is good and all, if it's too much than it feels to me like the secondary items are covering the bland. Flip or Flop is a good one too. They don't really do the work but have the vision. I suppose This Old House was sorta the springboard for what is now many shows devoted to this. Bargain Mansions is another one. She's very hands on. The shows where the buyer pics the best of 3 hmmm.....better hope they pick well. I imagine they get a good discount by having the show come in. House In A Hurry is an interesting angle on what I'm sure is a samey tv market.
