    There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

    Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

    There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

    This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

    While I really enjoyed binge-watching the entire series over the course of a few days, I have to note that it offers more in the way of entertainment than practical how-to or useful inspiration. Still-fun, silly, and dramatic. In other words, a fine, "unscripted" reality show. Having worked with contractors, designers, and trades on my own renovations, I was surprised and disconcerted by the piecemeal format. While there's nothing wrong with dressing one room at a time, I can't think of anything more ridiculous than actually finishing one room - painting trim and arranging tchotchkes - before starting demo on the other rooms.There seems to be very little attention given (by the competitors or the judges) to the distinction between design and decor. Or, for that matter, art and accessory. While the San Diego team seems to accessorize with the best of them, real sophistication demands balance and control - and all of the issues raised by the judges do speak to one or the other of these criteria. I can't see the winning team - or any of their competitors - as anything more than enthusiastic amateurs. Still - squeaky Josh is such a caricature, it's hard not to smile. I love any renovation that isn't my own.

    I know the season has already aired here in the US, but I understand it is currently being aired in Canada and Asia.First off, I am so glad that Geoff & Josh were named the winners of this season of Rowhouse Showdown! They were entertaining through and through and delivered amazing designs each week. Sure they had their challenges, but so did everyone else. I can't believe how much they accomplished given the condition of the home. Week over week it appeared that they had the most daunting task of making over what seemed to be a house in the worst condition. I loved every aspect of the house, minus the bathroom tile but I'm sure there was more to the story than we were clued into. If there is a season 2, which I hope there is, it would be nice to see some changes. First, it would be nice if each of the homes or spaces being redone are identical so we the viewers can see the imagination of each of the teams. Second, it would be nice if the viewer was clued into the process of doing some of these updates so we can potentially take on some of these projects ourselves at home. Lastly -- give the teams more time so they are able to deliver a finished product.

    While the final winners had beautiful designs, the execution and workmanship was a great disappointment. Such shoddy workmanship really makes you wonder what you cannot see. This was a awesome idea to revitalize a family neighborhood but the judges were biased in that they were not looking for the "family" orientation of the design. The question should have been, "can I see my family living here?". The bathroom in the winning design was truly pathetic, so many mistakes made and I'm not singling out only the final winners. However, they were the ones with failures in the craftsmanship. The grout in one room, terrible tiling in another. One of the criteria in judging was the execution and construction of the design. The show overall was a FAIL.
