The Flipping El Moussas

I have been a fan of Flip or Flop for a long time. I had a lot of trouble listening to Heather talk. Hearing her say "babe" so much was annoying and their focus seems to be showing off a fake over the top relationship with each other that is very unrealistic and phony. I'm truly hoping that they take it down a notch and stick to being real and more believable. It's what I enjoyed most about Flip or Flop. Not this over the top giddy, snooty, and showy talk the entire show. I'll give it another try, but if episode 2 is like this, I won't be watching again. Hope they take it down a bit for viewers to enjoy.

Although I usually like Tarek, I find everything about her extremely annoying - her voice, her "glamorous" look, how little she actually brings to the show. Despite his talking about her 'amazing' ability to style the houses, they have actually brought in someone to do that and all she does is agree with him. Why is she even involved with the show? I watched his other shows as I found the actual work on the houses interesting, I couldn't possibly care less about her pregnancy saga. I also find his self-promoting of his business aggravating. I started to count how many times he says "Tarek buys houses". On his "Flipping 101" show, he stresses how the flippers need to be there, overseeing every part of the flip. But on this show, they don't show up for weeks and are then surprised how little is done. I watched the first 2 but won't watch any other.

So the only reason I would even consider giving this 2 stars is because I love Jeff and Izzy. How about lets leave Heather out and have Jeff and Izzy flip houses? Sorry but I think that this show is more about watching the new Mrs. El Moussa asking for what she wants and pouting and simpering to get her way. It's more sickly sweet flirtatious behavior than it is about the actual ins and outs of flipping houses. I used to like the parts in the former show about designing and weighing the ups and downs of doing the homes one way or doing things another way. The first show were Tariq sings his wife's praises for designing confuses me since they have their inhouse designer doing the majority of the design. All I saw that she did was mover into Tariq's office flirt giggle and simper. She's likely a great person, but I just didn't make much of a connection with her. And in the first episode when she was swatting bugs the pug away from her while they discussed the price of the house It was done. DON'T SAY YOU DESIGN SOMETHING WHEN YOU HIRE A DESIGNER TO DO IT.

What a total disappointment. Heather is supposed to be a realtor but she is just awful. Goes to filthy houses in designer clothes. Her knowledge is just a joke. And I do believe we counted her say "love it" 37 times. And let's not talk about she whines until she gets what she wants ex her office. She needs a huge office? For what? She's definitely not a designer. Has no knowledge of design. She is just a Christina wannabe. Does her hair like Christina has to have a dog like her. Etc etc etc HGTV thought wrong that this would be a hit. Definitely not. Definitely the biggest flop ever ....Get rid of Heather or cancel the show.

I loved the old flipping show with his ex-wife. But this one just sucks! They spend more time kissing and Tweeting for publicity than working on the flip. And I don't need to see their 'feel the baby' game every five minutes. I was just highly disappointed.

And the wife. She's supposed to be a realtor but she's totally clueless about how much it costs to renovate houses. How is that possible? I think we've been lied to on this.

And multi-million dollar flips? I want to see homes that I could aspire to own one day. I don't want to see a $2+ Million dollar home that they're fixing up to sell for $3+ Million. Regular people can barely cover the bills and buy groceries these days. I think it was just the wrong time to do a flipping show catering to Millionaires.
