Minicasas de ensueño

I love the idea of tiny houses as a minimalist solution to having a home that you own yet saving money for other important things. I'm actually a fan of minimalism as a whole, and people like Marie Kondo who in their own way teach us about what matters in life and how we can find out what that is. So it's nice to see two experts host a show about this, more so as I get a kick out of the space saving solutions they come up with.

Where the show falls short for me however is the customization of the build. They seem to want to please the owners to a fault, and there is always a big hidden drama throwing a spanner in the works. Some of it is really only going to work out for a while, and while you can certainly redesign a space, it baffles me and after a while just felt it was an obligatory part of the episode script. There's a lot that plays on emotions too, like how cruel and inhumane it would be to fail these poor new people, and there the interactions start to feel fake. Not to mention every build is on some sort of ticking clock. Sure, there's often an urgency but life or death and then everything magically aligning? I'd have rather seen a realer show that highlights actual problems and how to overcome them or how to make do when stuff goes wrong. I'd also be interested in a season that goes back and revisits people, or shows established tiny home dwellers, where they talk about the good and bad and how things have evolved over time. Now there is just a little segment at the end but the timeframe is so short, everyone is still essentially in the honeymoon period.

Seriously this show is a pretty fun watch, but every single episode is marred when John pretends he's Dr. Phil and subjects the audience to the most pointless drama. It's not a fun concept when you know there is a segment you are going to fast forward through every time.

This show is inspiring and very fun to watch with real people and real stories. The results are often amazing! Although, Zack seems to be the only one who really knows what he's doing instead of John who sort of just tags along making comments? However Zack and John is a great team and they are fun to watch. I really can't understand all the negative comments - yes, the script could be better as it feels a bit fake at times, but it's still a great show with two entertaining hosts!

First of all, John is funny and Zack makes a great sidekick. The projects are fascinating and the work Zack does seems like magic at times. Most of the tiny house homeowners-to-be are nice people. More than once this show has made me tear up. Come on, it's a cool show about a neat concept and appropriate for the whole family!

I felt that being a family of 2 girls, and your a musician and a wife who is an amateur fashion designer, I feel is a bit selfish to bring two kids into a tiny space (as they did) with all their needs and wants without thinking what is best for the kids. Leave it to artist to be selfish.
