100 Day Dream Home

Middling personalities, below-average talent.

IDK why all of these HGTV teams have to married, although like others here have said, they don't act like they're married.

Watching an episode where a couple buys an undistinguished lot with a cute bungalow on it...only to tear down the bungalow. Why not save a hundred thousand or two and buy an empty lot? Idiotic.

There seems to be no planned filming schedule because there's hardly anything ever going on and they waste loads of time on minor details. Now they're showing the guy buying water for the crew...really? And now they're shopping.

A builder and a realtor do NOT add up to an architect. Realtors sell houses, they don't design them and she obviously doesn't have the chops to be designing or decorating houses. The problem with most of the developers in the US is that they think they don't need qualified, trained architects and as a result design dumb, boring houses. This show is marginally better than HGTV's standard fare, but these two still produce cookie cutter, latest boring all-white fads.

I like the show overall, but I'd like it a lot better if Brian would quit trying to sound like someone he isn't, i.e., a different race. He sounds a bit like a fool when he does that. The home decor is much the same, but they do try to give the clients what they want and the homes are lovely just the same. Nice couple, great attitudes, hard workers and they're fun to watch.

They (she) interacts more like brother and sister rather than husband and wife????

There is very little on screen PDA. For example Ben and Erin(Hometown); Nathan and Jerimiah; Chip and Joanna Gaines; Egypt and Mike, even Christina and Tarek, who are now divorced, even show more affection and care for one another than Mika does toward Brian.

I saw an episode where Brian affectionately leaned in to kiss Mika on the cheek, and she moved away.

On another episode he tried to carry her over the threshold, and she commented "were way past that." And there are so many other examples.

Perhaps i'm making more of this than is necessary, but IMO, when you see the other couples' interaction, Mika's seemingly cold and stand-offish attitude toward Brian really stands out.

I only half like it. The hosts are likeable funny people. They build nice homes together. My favorite husband and wife team HGTV show is "Married to Real Estate". They showcase a balance of the client, the realtor's aspect, and building the home for the client. It's just better than this show does it. My only real fault with this show is too much time is spent on the couple-couch-time, their longgg "sidebars". The show's focus, on most episodes, is set too much on the hosts' comments. They talk too much more than they show. But the homes look beautiful, I give them that.

Love these two! Their desire to deliver a dream home on the promise of 100 days Is a great concept!
