I don’t know if producers read these comments, but regardless I want to offer mine.i adored this show ( HomeTown). Ben an Erin area perfect match both personality wise and work wise. When they renovated homes in this little Mississippi town, homes that sold for far less than $100,000, I was amazed with their ingenuity and creativity. I loved that they brought in their best friends to help. They did a fantastic job on each and every home. The blended the personality of the owner into their design. Lately I have noticed the houses are getting more expensive, the finishes are less creative, the friends have disappeared and it is not the same. They are not Chip and Joanna Gaines and that’s who they seem to be morphing into. The Gaines do great work but to me, they do the same design in every Reno. I watched many many of their shows and I think Ben and Erin are so unique in their approach I would hate to see them become anything other than themselves. There is nothing wrong with moving up the ladder of success but often times this means throwing away the friends, doung the same things that have proven successful in the past, just different layout combos. I always envisioned Ben and Erin’s mission to be tohelp rebuild their small southern town in their own creative talented way and not morphing into Chip and Joanna Gaines clones. Please bring back their friends, their creativeness with old inexpensive homes. I fear this show will become a cookie cutter version of every other makeover show and that would be such a shame. I live in Ontario Canada and I love the close homey settings Ben and Erin work on and give renewed life to. Please don’t make them into something they are not.

I quite like this show and I also understand there has to be an aggravator to lend balance to the stories. However I would dearly love to see the annoyingly rude Detective Sgt put in a life threatening situation where Frank saves his life. Then have his nastiness toned down to a dull roar in other episodes.

I like the show very much but the protagonist’s anger acting is over the top. He plays it over condescendingly and over angry which detracts from the plot by unnecessary posturing. A stronger approach would be for DI Rabbit to debate intelligently or at least have adult level disagreements rather than territorial adolescent nonsense. It would be a much more interesting approach. The part of the professor is brilliantly played
