Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

karenfelske Just being too cutsie playing with people's money. Dont like Jillian. Insulted homeowners house! Attitude and all she talks about is wanting to drink wine and compete with Todd. Not impressed at all. No homework done here. 1st home shown is not a good home . Very underqualified to do what she is doing. Wow! I could go on but you get the drift. Couldnt get rid of the one star rating!

Anna Brett I always watch the show to see the final "reveal". Jillian seems to have a knack for decorating and the final results are quite impressive. What is less impressive is the amount of money these people put upfront to have the changes done to their homes. Each and every time there is this "eye rolling" scene with all these "little surprises" that seem to crop up on a regular basis ($$$) More and more money to pay for extra unforeseen improvements. It is unnerving at best (Hillary Farr used to always fall short of finishing her projects on her show "Love it or List it"). I would never hire anyone like that. That's a huge disappointment and a let down. I can only see how these people feel. So who is pocketing all that money. I assume that in the end Jillian gets what she wants from that project but it's all water off her shoulders if the project is not finished. I have never seen anything like this on Jonathan's and Drew's show. Occasionally, there are things that crop up but options are being given and they work around the issues if necessary. Also, they get a lot more done with a lot less money. So what gives?Here, you gotta pay more or things get done to a complete 100% satisfaction. And even at that, projects are left undone with all the additional out of pocket expenses. It is hard to watch the show because of the price gouging and the horrible unprofessional approach.

shetor19 The banter between Jillian and Todd is quite amusing. The show is true enough to life, that I disagree with its detractors. You never know what you're going to find when you open up a wall in an old home. Also have to take into consideration that building codes are regularly updated and changed. In Vancouver, if your reno involves more than 50% of the living space, you must install a sprinkler system. Obviously, the detractors haven't a clue as to the cost of such undertaking. The building inspector is the law, and your project is bound by the building code. I love this show, and hope it comes back in 2017. It's fun watching Todd and Jillian, they seem to have great chemistry, and I've learned a lot from Kenny's expert knowledge.

LynnSATX Although I have watched both Love It or List It shows for as long as they have been on and will more than likely continue to do so, the latest episode [1/9/2015] really worked my nerves! I understand that a lot of money had to go to resizing the deck and moving the footers (which was a given), but, come one, the fact that Jillian had trouble reallocating money to give the couple what they needed before undertaking any renovations was unbelievable to me! With $190,000, I repeat, $190,000, the upstairs should have been renovated as well with a functioning bathroom,to say the least! What about options, compromise and or sitting down with the homeowners to come up with viable modifications to achieve a "win/win" scenario, even if camera time is not devoted to this but implied in some fashion? 1st of all, as the homeowner, I would have only given her $10,000 initially (for example), and when she asked for more money, possibly have given her the rest! But then again, I say this about almost episode I watch of either show and am always pleading with the homeowners through the television to "Hold on to some of your money until you find out how much it is going to take to renovate your very old home!" And, what's up with all of the white walls, cabinets and countertops? Cheaper for Jillian, maybe, but at the expense of creative design aesthetic... It seems as if the designers' own agendas take precedence over the desires of the homeowners, so that they can go back in and complete the remaining projects, just in case couples do decide to side with Todd and list their homes! Furthermore, the contrived drama is truly unnecessary since there is enough of it watching Jillian inform the couples of what she is not going to do for them, which is exasperating and more of a distraction than not! I do like watching the design crew transform ordinary rooms into spacious and functioning living areas, but the journey and end results very seldom seem to meet my expectations as a viewer!
