Battle on the Beach

This show is so bad. S eke like hdtv is throwing some average people off the street, throwing some hdtv actors on the show for drama for a craptastic sandwich.

So rock the block turned from showing how stuff was done into now pure drama. Better trades content on YouTube. This show has a bunch of hdtv actors referee people who walked into Home Depot. The fact that Mike Holmes lets his name even be associated to the two aforementioned shows clearly shows he has sold out.

I used to like these shows because you learned something. Or you saw something you wanted to emulate. Now, it's just a soap opera. Where these people think they are celebrities who make so over the top houses that look good for their magazine but no one wants to live in. Or like this show, is so mediocre work.

I remember back when Ty Pennington in season 1 of extreme makeovers. The project was small and something an average person could do. He told trade secrets and acumen relevant to the show. Now you just have 5 hosts. So terrible and disappointing. I think I'll just go to YouTube and watch Bob build something on the channel "I like to make stuff". Because he actually knows what ha talking about, shows it and makes something with quality in mind.

First of all, it's very obvious that they try to make sure each "team" gets a win or else the last episode wouldn't matter, so it's obviously not a real competition. There are some design concepts that are clearly dangerous and would never pass inspection but only a small portion of those are discussed. Ty Pennington's voice is like nails on a chalkboard and he's always screaming. Why? So bad, but there's nothing else on.

Annoying show that makes little sense. A pack of dubious "renovators" compete by dismantling beach houses and re-designing them. They work in teams and get judged by "experts" on their work.

The main problem is that the work they do is TERRIBLE. Bad carpentry, bad tiling, horrible designs, etc. The goal is to add value to the house but they spend their budget on design crap that is irrelevant to the value of the home.

Hanging pictures on a wall and buying floor lamps adds ZERO to the appraised value of the home.

On top of this the contestants themselves do nothing but whine and complain about having to do the work.

WIDE PASS ON THIS ONE.

I watch every HGTV show possible and love it. But Battle on the Beach is getting harder and harder to watch. Starting to not seem genuine and trying to torture people and likely shoddy unsafe work. It causes so much stress and tension that I thinking of undoing my recording . 2023 is high unnecessary stress. It's not fair to judge their ideas when they don't get to pick their workers or contractor, so not real judge of their work!,,, they may not work in extreme speed in their normal environment so im thinking it's an " acting" job? Should be two " different" judges like with the property brothers when they compete. They work fast but NO high stress.

Wish you all had not used the Baumlers as judges. They are the worse one's you have had. As far as I am concerned, they do not have the experience to judge anything!!!
