Is Doug leaving Trading Spaces as well? I noticed that he is hosting a new show on TLC...

They all seem to be doing their own shows now, don't they?

How do they do the recap without a host, on how much they spent on the money, and the homeowners reveal? They are nuts! Does this mean the 'challenges' are gone... cut to scene walking in talking to designer, no room challenge, back to $1,000... ok, watch homeowners do their thing... no shots of homeowners waring with designers, or sneaking out, or doing something different... day 2, designers now are asked to take on the script writing of host position and explain in detail... wonder if that means no challenge of time??

dumb dumber dumbest idea.... ever!! :-)

Great room by Edward. I loved the wall color and his fabrics on the furniture. Christi's room was good too, loved the red.

Hey...I got a great idea! How about they do a show in which neighbors switch houses for 2 days and redecorate a room, with only a budget of $1000 and each get a designer to help give the neighbors what they would like.

Oh yeah...that was season 2...sheesh.

Actually that's not totally correct. The neighbors were to do a room in the way 'they' wanted for the homeowners. Both budgets for last night were $1000.

Sarcasm just doesn't come across when I post it like it does in my head when I think of it.

That may be, but I'm still off the Trading Spaces Bandwagon and have been for quite awhile now. With what I've been reading lately...I have a feeling they won't be drawing me back, either.

Barry, Rick, the blonde gal and Jon pushed me away. I think the hostless show seals the coffin for me. Good luck to them though.

Wow Hildi and Doug did great rooms. I love the colors in all the rooms. I also really need their tiled floors lol.

Tile might be great for cooling in warm places such as Florida, but north of the Mason-Dixon Line, not so much.

Cooling I don't care about. But tiles are great to have when you have dogs that like to chew and poop on the carpet.

I hate to say this but the aubergine that Christy used didn't match the room to me. I liked the room too, very soothing I think. I also liked Edward's room mainly because it didn't look like a florida room when he finished. Loved that desk but not sure bout the lime green accents.

I agree with all you said, Mocha. I wonder if actually living with Edwards room will work. I am sitting in an all white Florida house as I write this and I can't imagine if one room was dark how it would feel. If those walls were taupe or a cafe latte color I think it would have been better but not the yacht interior he was going for. The lime green id definately odd.

I just started watching TS again after about a year off. I just got so tired of it. It is feeling fresh again now and the changes help.

I love Dougs show Moving Up.

It's not the color so much in Edward's room but that could be a factor. It's just that I hate those 'florida' rooms. They always look like a weird extension. So I think Edward made it look like a regular room and warmed it up.

I have not seen too many of those rooms but they do look like an outside space turned into an inside living space. It seemed off to make it so dark.

Vern is going to be in our town on Friday!! He's redoing a house in Port Charlotte. The couple won a contest (from Stainmaster Carpet) for a remodel. I might try to find the street...hmmm maybe just casually take a different route home..

Watching this tonight, I was thinking could they have spent $10,000 on somebody's house who couldn't seem to afford it on their own? Who didn't have plasma tvs and huge homes?

Thanks Cinnamon. I've heard he was doing a show for NBC for a long time (at least a year, if not longer) yet I have never heard anything about that show. Wonder when it'll air.
