What about now?

Aug 25, 2008 13:51

I freely admit I'm a reality show junkie. I love makeover shows like Ramseys Kitchen nightmares, restuarant makeover, how clean is your house, mission orginization, etc. But don't you wish they'd go back after 6 months or so and show what's happened? I was flipping through channels and came across "Tabitha's salon makeovers." Tabitha was on the ( Read more... )

yes, i would really like some follow-ups on stuff, too!

I don't know if they provide mental help, some of the people don't just seem cluttery, they seem filthy or like hoarders

I love that Ramsey. When he swears like that I laugh every time! It's sick I tell you.

And yet, my favorite isn't when he's swearing but when he says "YOU DONKEY!" for some reason that just cracks me up

Oh yeah! I always wonder how long all that fixing up and organizing lasts.

Since I've cleaned up before and then reverted I wonder about the ones even worse than I am... they got there somehow

I often wonder about the same thing. Maybe someday they'll show us.

Probably not, wouldn't it be awful to have those people come in with a shovel and dumpster, then turn around and let it get bad again?

trekkingkitty August 25 2008, 21:39:59 UTC

I think that some of them do let it get bad again, especially on How Clean Is Your House. Some of those folks are horders.

I agree! I've been longing for some "where are they now" kinds of stuff. Kitchen Nightmares did an epilogue of one restaurant saying it was sold, but I'm curious about the others. What Not to Wear did a follow up, but not of every person they did, but it was pretty good.

I wasn't interested in Tabatha's show, though, so I've passed on that. The reunion shows for Top Chef, Flipping Out, Project Runway, etc. are pretty good, too.

I guess I kind of like the thing that House Hunters does when it is "4 months later" and such. I wish that show Hidden Potential showed us what happened since those are major remodels.

On the BBC show Gordon did go back sometimes, but I haven't seen it here. I don't like Tabitha but I was flipping and caught about two minutes of it... and just wondered how many clean ups and fixes actually take
