We love house flipping shows, and while this sounded like a copy of Flip or Flop Nashville (ex's working together) we gave it a shot.
Typically I believe you have to watch at least 2 or 3 episodes of a show for it to find it's grove, but we gave up after forcing ourselves through the first episode of this car wreck.
The good news. These are both super-telegenic individuals who find and rebuild homes. It's a well known formula and we all wait for the reveal at the end of the beautiful finished product. Along the way there'll be construction challenges, design challenges, perhaps disagreements with an HOA, and the obligatory inter-personal challenges. Check, check, and check... except every one of these felt very manufactured in this show, with no real drama.
The bad news. When one of the best parts of an episode is how bad a driver one of the stars is and how she keeps parking ON a curb, you know you're in trouble.
It started with my wife pointing out in the first few seconds of the show "ew, this is from Bravo?"
The final design was uninspired.with awkward spaces. The foreman took down a wall meant to stay and said you have to 'listen to what the house wants you to do'. Our 'business' owners let it slide.
The woman... well, she ruins the show. She's VERY full of herself and smug, when something doesn't go exactly her way she alternates between throwing a temper tantrum or pouting, and generally making people around her feel bad. Oh, and you're on-call 24/7 to her whims and she gets mad if you can't answer your phone.
The gentleman seems nice enough (but can't drive because of too many tickets??) but overall feels like he's in an abusive relationship with his ex.
Don't waste your time with this one.
