I think this is the right place for this..... Fox is starting this show next Monday. The format is based on a big Australian show. 8 couples begin to transform 4 apartments in a Malibu complex, within budgets and deadlines. A panel of experts will help slowly eliminate couples until 4 are left to finish the units. They are then sold at auction, and the couple that has the highest profit (as based on percentage) wins ALL the profit from all of the units. here's the website

Sounds like a total snore. TBS had something similar a few months back. I can't remember what it was called.

We're looking forward to this one!!! Unlike the snoozefest BB style home improvement shows based on "popularity among peers" to win, this one has the right idea. Talent and hard work win, and if viewers have laughs along the way, that's cool.. I suppose you'd have to be in middle of serious home remodel jobs to appreciate what a task it is, every minor detail, to appreciate partnership.

I am going to give this one a try. Like Lilfair, I think the casting will play a huge part in my enjoyment. But, then again, I enjoy watching This Old House and Hometime! Bring on the remodeling! Oh, does anyone know how 8 couples do 4 apartments? Do they share at first then get switched to other apartments as the show goes on? It would suck to be working on a great apartment then get switched to a messed up one.

How can it be fair with some apts up higher (more stairs) than others? So each couple has their own apt? And then there are 2 apts per team?

Why would those women wear heels and dresses for this competition?

I really don't like the Jayna woman. The one that spilled the paint. But the other woman kinda overreacted also. And them Kim going into the other unit and seeing what was going on!

Them grown people need micromanagement because they won't stop b**ching. Monique's trying. I got to give her thumbs up on that. I would have told them all to take it outside and last one standing better get their ass back in and get back to work...LOL

I love the Big Brother/Survivor style aspect to this game... Property manager has no vote (kinda like the HOH in BB). The couple with the most votes gets evicted.
