AND it is set in Nashville! I can't wait to see where they work, etc. The only place that comes to mind for me is Watkins Institute, but we will see TONIGHT! And thanks for the birthday wishes, Reader and Huk!

Hey, Happy Birthday, Tnt!! I was going to ask you if you had any idea where they might be filming. You'll have to keep us all filled in if you see anything!

I'd have chosen the husband of the husband/wife couple. She's too frou frou for my taste ...

Nashville has two BIG lakes - Percy Priest to the east, formed by damming the Stones River, and Old Hickory to the northeast, formed by damming the Cumberland River. Last night's show could have been filmed at either. Pamy, sorry about the folder - I just don't visit that part of the board very often, and my folder had been removed! I appreciate the thought though!

The husband was too similar to Clive. Each host on HGTV is unique.

For $100,000 couldn't they go out and BUY a house? I'm interested to see what kind of house they can throw up in a week. I don't think having them sleep outside is appropriate though...couldn't they at least give them a tent?

Not many $100,000 houses in Nashville, and certainly not in any part of the city where these guys would be willing to live! I have never been on a Habitat build, but don't those houses get done in very little time? I hope we aren't stuck with a bunch of whiney-a$$ed folks on this show!

I liked the first lady, the cop, and the long dark haired lady with 3 kids. I also loved that they mentioned in the beginning that the applicants must have design experience. Hgtv doesn't want another Myles of nostyle lolol.

<<I'm interested to see what kind of house they can throw up in a week.>> True story: I had a wild dream one night that I was coughing and hacking up those little Christmas village houses. I woke up gagging, so in essence, I probably can throw up a house.

I would take a good chunk of the $100,000 and hire a quality contractor to build the house for them ... Question: how are they supposed to hook up to the city's freshwater, sewer, electric, and (possibly) gas lines? Or are they supposed to do without running water, and use an outhouse, a portable generator, and Coleman lamps and stoves, for the duration?

I liked the Cajun guy, the copy and the first lady. I kind of was thrown off by the lady from Michigan's (the one with 3 kids) hair...and they say those of us from Texas have big hair????

Neither of the lakes I mentioned is far from civilization! They could conceivably be on land immediately adjacent to a big subdivion for utilities. No part of either lake is "remote."

Are we to presume that HGTV has obtained all the permits needed to build by the lake? Or are they just supposed to build something temporary.

Some lakefront lands are Corps of Engineers, some are TVA, and most are privately owned. In any case, I am sure the necessary paperwork was taken care of, or I would have seen something about it on the news!

Thanks, TNT, I was hoping someone from the area would know.
