Instant Dream Home

The host is painful. As others have noted there is no benefit to all the screaming. The concept is mad but fascinating and I wish the show would show you how they pull off what they do in a day, because that is interesting. You can't plaster / drywall etc in that time and you can see they avoid this and use clever alternatives, but you never get to see what which let's it down. Where does all the stuff go, who sorts it? Instead we are treated to over the top drama with no plot and plenty of repetition between episodes. I think the concept is very interesting, just poor execution. Maybe they can do a behind the scenes and save us all the poor acting.

First thing is that all of the designs were beautiful and thoughtful. Concept was interesting and at least appeared feasible. However, the show lacked a good structure. A lot of time spent on made up drama's and doing unnecessary 'tests' back at the warehouse. While I love the host as an actress, she added nothing to this show.

Rule number one in TV is treat your audience with respect and don't insult their intelligence. This show does not do that. Cringey over produced set ups that fool no one. Cameras everywhere yet the makeovers are supposed to be a surprise, obviously fake phone calls and equally fake reactions. The interactions between the designers are so badly acted. In fact all of this casts doubt on whether or not these are actually done in 12 hours as they claim. The only saving grace is that the makeovers are actually pretty good so my advice is skip to the 30 mins mark and watch the transformations as everything else is just bad TV. 5 Stars and that's being generous.

The show premise itself, is very interesting. Like any remodeling show, there are nice stories and the final product is good. But the host, who has no particular responsibility except from shouting throughout the whole episode, it is too much. She has to tone it down.

The "team leader" seems like it's not a thought-though concept. She seems like a cool girl but she doesn't seem to serve a purpose. The staged bits are reaaaallllyyy obvious..like dropping something big and being "shocked". It's happened in several episodes. So the acting is just quite bad. Everyone seems nice though and I like the designs, not like that other show on Netflix where half the show is their kids and every design is the same.

One thing - why did they put the baby in the closet with no window? :D Makes no sense.
