Holmes on Homes FTW

Hell yeah, make it like that "To catch a predator" show, they could hire them for a different job and ambush them with the cameras. If they try to run, Mike could just put em in a headlock or something...

Now this would make a good show.

I wish they would call out the previous contractors on the show.

he has on 2 shows, one was about a basement where the contractor wrote on a board they found in a wall saying "*******'s first basement" and another one about a foundation fix

Bumpage for Sir Holmes... The episode they had on today had him repair someone's entire home after it was burnt down. He basically did a head to tow tear demo and rebuild of the entire house and foundation. Simply amazing what they are able to do for these people, one of the actually "good things" on people.

He's making $100K+ on every episode, not to mention his sponsorships.

The BBC has a show like that...BBC One's Rogue Traders. They set up and confront them.

One old lady said she needed a tv fixed. (The BBC guy just unplugged the cable from the wall.)

The contractor shows up, pours Red bull all over the wire, then sells her a new TV, New antenna, new cable run for like 700 Euros.

Thier is a bunch of them on YT.

As far as HoH....noticed they are wearing a lot more safty gear in the new shows, Mask mostly.. Wait till after 4-22-10 when the new EPA law takes effect. Any home improvement show filmed from then on will have to do RRP regs if the work is in the US and in homes built before 1978. I bet he wont do work in the states after that...
