S.O.S. ma maison va craquer!

So tired of every little thing now being called a "hack" & since that is in the name of the show they say it every few minutes. There were good, creative ideas, designs, & innovation, so please call them those grownup things, & not "hacks". The show tries too hard to make their hosts interesting by making them look & act eccentric & kooky to the point of it being fake. Ati Williams is the only one of the hosts who came across as real & personable. Kudos to the actual carpenters behind the scenes that do the actual work.

I would love to see the condition of the house in the first show a few weeks later with the 4 out of control boys who had no respect for anything. They were too old to be purposely dumping paint on themselves in the workshop - no adult tried to reign anything in. There's a difference between being creative & just allowing them be messy & rude. I wonder how long it was before one of the boys squished one or more of his brothers with the push button moving wall in the kids' tv area or jammed it up because of toys underneath? With all the moving components, the space only works if the kids are taught how to help pick up after themselves. They need to have respect for their home, the space, the things in it & their parents. They didn't have it before, so they can't learn that with the nice space given to them if they are never taught or made to be responsible.

Not sure if I will watch more episodes, there was a lot going on that was hard to stomach.

This team genuinely helped people's lives with their craft and it was very emotional to see, especially since the participants were so endearing! A home is so much more than just a building and we all deserve to feel as comfortable and happy as possible in it.

Plus the team's ideas were so smart and innovative, both in concept and execution, which made watching the show unique and very entertaining. The casting diversity both in participant and team members was also really refreshing to see!

My only negative point would be that some parts of the creative/construction process dragged a bit too long at times and that the team often feel a bit too stiff/unnatural in their delivery, but these negatives are easy to ignore.

Literally the most annoying thing about this show is the absolutely unbearable use of the work "hack" to describe every minor thing that's changed. It's honestly not a bad renovation show and they do some unique things but it's like the producers have them a quota for the word that they must make or the actors will be tortured. We put added a lamp to this room, hack! We threw out all the garbage you had over here, hack! Bought you a regular desk from Walmart, hack! Just let it flow instead of trying to force the use of one particular word over and over. Especially when it almost never even applies.

Ropes that hang from the ceiling in the kid's room? Spinning mirrors with shelves where bottles can fall off into a black hole and hands can get stuck? Moving closets that can be used as impromptus amusement park rides? Yas, let the lawsuits begin.

And it has not escaped my notice that these homes end up with a lot less stuff than they started with. And where is all this stuff? Sitting in storage containing on the curb, most likely, where it will all be dumped someplace inside the house, and they'll be right back where they started.

Seriously, I do appreciate what the show is doing for these families. But there are so many safety hazards I cringe with each episode.

Well, I looked at negative comments and I didn't understand why. It is a good show for me. (actually what do you expect? Watch and enjoy, that's all.) I really love home transformations generally I love watching tlc also but that was a little different. 3rd episode was so emotional. Hosts are annoying a little and I didn't understand unnecessary joy when they were visiting homes,so fake. I watched first 5 min and last 13 min. I skipped construction part and that was enough. This is a good show. Not only hacking the homes, they are creating magical spaces for families. ( actually hacking is something different in my opinion, they really construct from zero in some episodes) I loved it and please do not listen negative comments. It is really not 1 point show.
