I'm an avid HGTV watcher and one of my favorites shows is HOLMES ON
HOMES.

What I really like about the program is that when he is correcting what
others have done, he explaines what should have been done and WHY.

Anybody here watch this program or any other DIY program?

Here's a thread that I started a few years back when I first ran
across his show:

I caught one of his episodes recently, and the information provided
was much better. I don't know if that's an editing thing, or and
education thing - like he's learned stuff since the show's been on.
In any event that particular episode was a big improvement over some
of his earlier shows which had some outrageous misinformation. The
show also seemed to have turned the This Old House/Extreme Makeover
Home corner, and is doing far more work, and spending far more time
and money to upgrade while they're correcting shoddy work.
