Anyone else watching 'Property Ladder'?

This is latest of new shows by TLC.

The channel is trying to regain the audience they've lost since the downward spiral of Trading Spaces. Can you believe it? I've been sucked back into their world! But I must tell you that I really am enjoying 'Property Ladder'. It's kind of like 'Moving Up' (another new TLC show). But PL focuses on fixing up a property that'll be sold once the work is done.

It can be comical. Watching these people make bad decisions. It can be informational. Learning what changes can give the most bang for the buck. It can be horrifying. Seeing what ugliness is behind the walls.

The latest episode had two Texas cousins trying to whip up some magic in an old (meaning dilapidated) 2 bedroom 1 bath cottage. They did a lot of teardown work themselves (their husbands helped of course). But it was great watching these two gals get into it. They let the professionals do the electrical and the framing. But they did create some magic because the place looked spectacular in the end.

If you've missed watching the show, they are retelevising the three episodes this Thursday night. Watch it. Tell me what you think.
