Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Konterr Brilliant and touching
Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!
weatherdon I love house flipping shows, love 'em. Too often though I've seen where the show's success goes to the hosts head. The emphasis seems to shift away from detailing the renovation process and becomes more a platform to emphasize the hosts 'personality.' In this case it's Eric Bennett's delusion that he possess comedic ability. They can hardly be in a two shot without getting an sample of his lame humor, and of course whatever he says she obediently giggles. It didn't used to be this way. There's nothing wrong with showing personality, but the Bennett's should remember that the purpose of the show is emphasize the renovation process and what can be learned from it. The time spent on cornball jokes would be better spent explaining the process they are undertaking.
imastar7 If you watch The House of blue episode you'll see them taking a screw gun to a piece of wood and he doesn't make it all away flush. I don't know how They can live with themselves knowing that's behind the wall...
rhubarbpiego Interesting to see Palm Springs area properties, and the Bennetts seem to address the market well. The episodes I've seen so far focus on affordable homes with realistic profits. I like that they actually show some negative comments at the open houses, which makes the show more believable. We've all got different tastes after all. I would love to see them take on some more expensive properties as well so we could get a rounded out idea of PS real estate. I love a modern take on Mid Century Modern so I thought I'd be blown away by their designs but I'm not. That's not the most important part of a flipping project though - making a profit is. The Bennetts seem to find buyers and make a profit, so they're doing their thing right but I would still love to be rewarded with some "Wow!" designs. My only hesitation with this show is I find Eric and Lindsey annoying. Eric is constantly the class clown and Lindsey seems unnatural and constantly giggling. I don't really want cute when I'm watching a flipping show. I would like it more if they'd be more confident in their professional prowess and cut out the cutesy, But I'll keep watching.
Valentijn I was a bit skeptical when I saw a flipping show rated over 9 stars (that's up in "Breaking Bad" range), but it's actually very good for what it is. It lacks the more annoying elements found in most other flipping shows: obnoxious and sleazy guys who shout a lot, bleach-blonde wives with no qualification beyond thinking they have an eye for design, heavy scripting, bumbling employee to blame things on, etc.That's enough to put it ahead of the pack. But the couple doing the flipping are pretty funny and geeky. They talk naturally and intelligently to each other, manufacturing neither dissent nor agreement. The production is pretty good too ... nice filming, good aerial shots, editing, background music, etc. And they include both the positive and negative comments from potential buyers - they aren't trying to make every flip look ideal.
