I found out that they are bringing back the show Trading Spaces, which is exactly what I needed to hear today. This news is giving me life right now! Trading Spaces practically gave birth to the DIY reality genre (if you don't count This Old House, which my Dad used to watch on weekends and it would just put me right to sleep). Growing up, I would watch Trading Spaces with my sisters and my Mom. TLC would air marathons on the weekends and we'd watch several episodes back to back. The disasters were always just as entertaining, if not more so, than the successful redesigns. I will never forget the time that Hildi glued hay to every wall of a living room and the owners cried. I would have cried too, honestly, but I must be a horrible person because I thought it was just spectacular in it's horribleness. Another time they put all cardboard furniture in the room. CARDBOARD!!! Good Lord, I cannot wait for this show to air again!
You've got to check out these other disasters!

LOVED this show. Watched it all the time. I never got their hatred of ceiling fans. I mean, I get it, that's it not awesome looking, but that's not what they are there for!
