People are voting emotionally.

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Like the show but, who has the money to buy a $250,000 house and then put $350,000 renovation to it? I watch many shows where the house is not inspected by professionals and then they start working and then there is a $10,000 sewage issue. I would think that would be on them. Or Chip at least, NEVER buy a property unless it's throughly inspected. Rule to live by.

Love the show but getting tired of the decor.....what do chip and Joanna have against original brick homes, they,re constantly painting over the bricks......let's forget about kitchen islands in every kitchen and every show. They take up too much room in the kitchen...They never change their style of decor, it's the sane old thing over and over

The popularity of Tex and Edna Gaines mystifies me. They don't work with particularly memorable houses. Their taste is an abomination. They never say anything remotely interesting or informative. Tex tries to be funny when he's just a jack***. And I especially don't care about their brats or their goats. What's the attraction here? We don't learn a thing - not a thing - about home renovations. It's basically a reality show about a mediocre family of Texas half-wits who spend some of their time doing unattractive renovations. Put a beard on Tex and a couple of his offspring and it would be Duck Dynasty, Home Improvement Edition. Are women so desperate to have something to watch while their husbands are watching ESPN all day that they'll put up with this junk?

The goofball & the tomboy. love them both and the work they do. I like how Chip gets down and dirty, he looks like an actual blue collar guy because I'm tired of the yuppie boys "renovating" houses on TV. I also appreciate Joanna's style. Their work doesn't look the same in every episode. They do impress me. Chip is funny, he can be too much showing off esp when he acts like a 4 yr old for his wife's attention but it's cute and her reactions too. He reminds me of Kevin Costner and Joanna reminds me of Pocahontas. They're energetic and youthful. The way they reveal the new house is fun. I think these two know their job well. They have created some great country style house renovations that stick to my mind. They don't stick to one pattern. I like how Chip gets into concrete work. Their style brings something new to HGTV.
