The host is fun to watch as he gets excited about all aspects of the renovation. I love the desire to honor the history of the homes while making them livable for a modern family.

I've read multiple complaints about the designer. Actually I think her work is overall good. Although there have been some unfortunate choices (beautiful exterior trim with no visible contrast to the wall color, large neon light of words in bedroom, stark modern black/white painting in otherwise cozy dining room), most of her designs have been attractive and clearly what the homeowners want/in their style.

Happy homeowners should be more important than striving to cater to the varying tastes of viewers. I think the homeowners being pleased consistently will be a strong factor in the shows success, in addition to the likeable host and quality work.

P. S. You hear that some of these shows are fake, with hosts not actually doing the work portrayed. Haha, after watching 3 episodes, I find myself really hoping he is legitimately that involved.

I need a BFF like him, he cares about what he does.

The hosts really seem to genuinely care about the stories behind these beautiful old homes and do their best to breathe new life into each one.

There are a lot of "fixer" shows out there, this seems genuine. The host Jonathan Knight seems to be truly devoted. We get his passion for restoring historic Northeastern farmhouses. I'm from a Mayflower family, so I Love that. His personality is sweet, energetic and someone who wants to make his folks happy.

I love Jonathan Knight, he is genuinely sincere, not a drama queen and gets his hands dirty doing the remodels with his very funny sidekick designer. I love their ideas and we don't get to see too much of his personal life on the show.

I love Maine Cabin Masters, New Town, and Fixer Upper but the New Kid On The Block 'Farmhouse Fixer' is something special! Jonathan Knight is what makes the show so amazing. He is warm, funny, passionate, and supremely experienced in farmhouse renovation. Obviously, he is renovating farmhouses for those that can afford both the house and the fee. And I don't always agree with removing antique features, but Jonathan and his team do an amazing renovation with TLC on these farmhouses. The interior design I don't always like either, but it's not my farmhouse and the owners seem to love the overall transformation! I hope we se see a second season soon!!! I'm addicted!

Was so unpleasantly suprised to see the episode from 5-7-24. I adore Jon Knight and have watched him faithfully since his first series began. He is one of the only featured stars who actually restores and preserves historical treasures. He is very skilled and generally displays so much talent and good taste. Since Christina has gained more control of the design concepts, I have been less impressed. She is lovely and they both treat people so kindly and respectfully, however, she has been making unpleasant choices. The farmhouse featured on this episode was gorgeous before any renovations began. It looked far worse when the show ended. Why would the original front door be ignored as an entrance to open in to a closet. The color choices and horrific wallpaper made me shudder. If it were my home I'd detonate a bomb inside.

Jonathan puts his heart and soul into every project! So much work goes into these major renovations. Love seeing it all come together and how happy the homeowners are!!

I love the show I just hope there will be more, I knew Jon from a long time ago his love for animals and the care he puts into his work is awesome he puts a lot of care into his work.

I love Jonathan and I what he's doing restoring old houses but I've yet to watch an episode where I was blown away by the design. Most of the time I'm saying no, no, no! Nothing seems cohesive in the design. These people spend close to 200 grand or more and I'm wondering where it goes. I hate to say this but I agree with a lot of the other reviews that say that the designer is not up to par. She just put a small blue hexagon tile in the entry way and mud room and then chose a dark gray larger hexagon tile in the kitchen and the rest of the first floor was refinished hardwood. Too many flooring styles on the same floor which made it seem even more chopped up and not cohesive. She also used a garish blue color for trim in the kitchen(with dark green appliances, which could have and should have been gorgeous) and dining room. Top this off with the most heinous, busy green print wallpaper in the office(same floor) and you see what I mean about not having a cohesive design. They spent 200 grand and were expecting a new laundry room with a small addition and they got a small laundry closet(no room to fold, hang items or even store laundry items) I would have been so let down by this and I got the feeling the husband wasn't impressed. I'm not impressed with any of her choices from paint color to flooring to light fixtures or anything quite frankly. Like I said, I just love Jonathan and his mission to restore old houses but I feel the designer has got to go.

He's great and seems very sincere. The designer acts so phony and her exaggerated facial and hand gestures are hard to watch! She thinks she's funny but she's just "overacting" and detracts from the actual story. Lose the bad actor designer or include less of her!!

I adore Jonathan...his personality is suave and a refreshing take, when doing his thing on the show. But that assistant has no business on a show, especially one that exemplifies good hearty designs and having a laugh or two which is so nice. Its wholly her personality. Not deliberately wanting to piss anyone off, but she offers no "good design" just lousy practicality. Please try-on another assistant and move this one aside.

Jonathon, please lose this designer, her color choices are so aweful it makes me not want to watch anymore. She has no taste when it comes to color. Yuck! She also presents herself as the star of the show, but should be kept in the background or better yet lose her, you can do so much better with a designer who can really design a home.

I've been binging in home refurbish/design shows and this so far is my favorite. It's less contrived than some of the others andin my opinion many of the designs are liveable and elegant. I'm not a fan of the pastels but I am happy to see colors other than white which is really boring and sterile to me. They don't overdo the designs either. His passion to preserving the history of the homes gives the show a layer of authenticity that is missing in some of the others and it is nice that he often includes historical artifacts. I'm glad it is being renewed and look forward to seeing the new season.

I love the show, the renovations and Jonathan's personality and excitement for what he does. However, I don't like the designs of Kristina and her personality is definitely off-putting. She talks too much, tries to take over the show and her cackling laughter is quite annoying. He needs someone that more compliments his personality where there is better chemistry and better design. This is one of the best home renovation shows on television but it is definitely spoiled by her. A little less Kristina, more Jonathan and even more of his farm and animals would improve things. Sitting with the clients and getting their style works better than taking them to side trips that picks out a color they like. I honestly mute the volume when she goes on and on.

I absolutely love this show. Jonathan has such great morals and such a good heart in preserving these old farmhouses. There hasn't been much on tv lately and ran across this show and love, love it. Jon and Kristina work so good together and really compliment each other. Lot of integrity. Please want to see more of this. I love horses and animals and always wanted to live on a small farm but couldn't find anything I could afford. First time I saw this was yesterday and watched six episodes straight through. Please want to see more!!!! Thanks.

I love this show! Love Jon! Show makes me happy, love the designs, love all the family being involved !

The show makes you feel like you know them. Jon is so talented. Kristina's design are cool. Look forward to watching and watch again in demand !

Hope this show stays on forever! ( Hope he doesn't run out of houses to renovate)😂Jon is so down to earth . Especially on the camp revamp. Lots of obstacles on camp revamp but that comes with the territory. It will be all beautiful in the end I am sure .

Hope he takes on another big challenge to tackle. After he takes a depth breath from this one! Awesome!!!!

The host is so earnest and likable as are all the people he works with. They do such good, personalized work. I am obsessed with this show.

Jonathan seems like such a good guy. Caring and real. I enjoy watching him and the passion he has for what he is doing. He is a definite 10. What drags this show down is the designer. I feel bad saying that because she also seems like a nice person but her design choices are either too much or too little, never striking just the right balance. I give her a 4. She has too much control for someone who's mediocre at what she does. Jonathan would be better off finding someone who is a top-notch designer. Anyway, I still watch because I like what he's doing a lot.

Season One - much enjoyed discovering legendary farm-houses. I love being able to learn "history" on such an enjoyable level of bringing something back into usefulness. Season Two - morphing into the personal that I have no interest in. Several shows of a similar nature "reality" are doing the same thinking that I am anticipating with bated-breath to somehow be privy to their life. Wrong assumption. This show will lose me mid-season if it continues into his second life of show-biz. The designs are losing in the imagination & character department. Don't go the way of "Home Town" - they lost my interest 2 years ago.

Jonathan seems to be good and genuine but not with Kristina as his designer. Her designs are mostly so behind the style now; can you imagine she still putting scallop on the kitchen and lots of wall papers; If I have a budget of 180-200 thousand, I'll rather ask the property brother to do it. Sorry but she's the worst designer I ever seen in HGTV.
