I agree with others....same story line all the time! Never have been able to complete the reno list as some catastrophe always comes up.... and Jillian has the same look of complete shock on her face everytime....she really should be used to it by now! Would be really nice to see a bit if variety in the story line....maybe a reno completed with no problems for a change and within budget!
Definitely needs to take a lesson from The Property Brothers as they always manage to adapt or redesign and find a way to work within their budget! They manage to remove weight bearing walls, remove asbestos, install beams, and level floors and much more most of the time with no increase in budget! Their clients get a much better deal as the renos are completed and always look great!
Another thing I've noticed is the property brothers always let the clients enter the house and rooms first...seems that Jillian has a need to be front and center and always have the camera focused on her! Todd is more low key and easy going and does a great job for the clients! Show has become rather annoying and somewhat boring!
