Home Town

This show is such a welcome breath of fresh, real air on HGTV. So many of the other shows are full of flashy plastic people who represent the worst forms of greed, but this show is wonderful because they deal with people who have realistic and relatable budgets and the hosts are respectful of their clients' wishes and budgets.

I really appreciate the creative ways they SAVE money on this show instead of creatively spending MORE like what is done on other HGTV shows.

The Napier's are adorable. They make small town Mississippi seem charming.i didn't know they existed until Fixer Upper went off. I'm happy I found them. It's now my favorite HGTV show.

Love their motivation to make their town nicer, and their interaction. Seem like a very sweet couple!

Seems they really care about their clients doing things like putting in a single sink to keep costs down for a single homeowner in a small house, using butcher block counters instead of granite/quartz once in a while (assuming that's less expensive because he's a woodworker & does some amazing work!).

Having said that, when they have the budget they also do nice work with higher end materials. Like any of these shows, I can see some issues like a loose stair tread (and I know that not every room gets done due to time/budget issues) but honestly I'd be happy to have them remodel my place if I wanted someone to do that for me.

Bottom line, uplifting show with some interesting befores and/or afters

I love this show. I love the couple, their friends that help and all the beautiful work they do to these older homes. I don't think I have ever seen such real people on any tv show.....ever!

Sitting here watching another show of this type, I realise Ben and Erin have much nicer clients than the other show. They come in on or under budget each time. I do wonder how the buyers afford the rooms that are not renovated, however. I love the recycling element of the show.
