The Bronson Pinchot Project (2012)
I'm guessing most of the ratings for this are fake
I'm guessing most of the ratings for this are fake. There's no way anyone in their right mind would rate this anything over a 5 at best. This show tries to portray Bronson Pinchot as an old home renovator, but it fails horribly. I'm 3 episodes in, and I've yet to see him do a single thing except order everyone around and start every sentence with "I want ...".
I've watched tons of renovation shows in my life, starting with "This Old House" as a kid. Shows like that are the reason I've done all my own renovations at the 2 homes I've owned, and the reason why it seems like I have every tool known to man. But this show is seriously an embarrassment to renovation shows. I'm guessing it was a mercy killing when it was cancelled after 2 seasons.
Do yourself a favor, and avoid this show like the plague. You're not missing a thing. Unless of course you're looking to laugh at just how bad these renovations are. You definitely won't be laughing at the lame attempts at jokes.
Hack My Home (2023)
This show is dangerous....
This show is dangerous, and not because of the choking hazard ropes hanging from the kids ceiling, or movable walls that'll likely be used on some poor unsuspecting sibling, but because adults are going to use this show as a drinking game. If everyone takes a shot every time they say the word HACK, people are going to get alcohol poisoning halfway through an episode.
The amount of times they say hack is made even worse by the fact that they don't hack anything. There's nothing mind blowing or interesting done to these people's homes, and I'd imagine most of it has already been ripped out for things that would actually help the families.
The worst part of the show though has to be the hosts. They're unbelievably over the top and annoying. There seems to be a contest between them over who can wear the most loud or colorful clothing. I'd be shocked if any of them actually did any of the work at all. The people working off camera are clearly the real stars of the show who try to make the dumb designs work.
