    • I agree, I miss Clive. Who is the woman and what are her credentials?

  3. It looks like HGTV listened to the viewer's complaints about the last season. Episode 1 was really good with Tanika as host, and great to see David involved as mentor to the designers. The most important thing is that these designers really appear to be talented and I think it's going to be a great season.

  4. The show is much better with better choices in contestants abilities! I do not understand why( whoever makes the decision for host ) they do not get that a polished," I can also be on the nightly news" type does not go with a show all about creativity. The new host is very nice but not a great choice for a design show. Safe is probably the most important priority to HGTV. We need someone with a great sense of humor (no not a comedian) and someone who is compassionate (or can fake it). Hmmmmm CLIVE WOULD BE GREAT!
    For some reason that's not happening. Maybe next year?? Or maybe he got smart and left stuffy HGTV.
