Not to hijack the thread, but really quite in line with Silva is the
Holmes
guy. VERY intelligent, and I like his "didactic tool" of coming in and
fixing other contractor's mistakes. wrong way, right way, wrong way,
right
way.


Holmes isn't fit to carry Silva's hammer. *Check out Holmes' early
shows - the guy clearly didn't know what he was talking about, and
they apparently didn't have the budget for someone to edit/coach him.
The show has improved somewhat, but it's still a joke.

Ditto...The guy (Holmes) is an assclown...He struts around like he knows
it all picking **** apart then ****s up the drywall advice....And what's
with the sleeveless coveralls ??? Trying out for The Village people ???
LOL....All those shows do is push high end stuff no normal person could
afford or even want...Infomercials for the manufacturers....I'ld rather
watch paint dry....


I'm curious as to how the mfrs benefit. *I am rarely able to see a clear
label, or detect much name dropping, or much endorsement.


I've seen enough of his shows to know that PL Premium is his
construction adhesive of choice. Beyond that, like you, I don't
recall any specific name dropping.
