They are facing another lawsuit: https://chicago.suntimes.com/entertainment-and-culture/2020/4/15/21222937/windy-city-rehab-alison-victoria-donovan-eckhardt-lawsuit

From what I read from the listing and what I saw on HH, they installed brand new HVAC, new upgraded solar ready electrical panel and painted the living room wall and the front door orange and painted purple and pink accent walls in the bedrooms. Everything else looks the same as when they toured it. So I would say no as a flip.

I agree about the house being ugly and I guess they realized it was too much work to fix up because it's back on the market for $75k more than what they paid for 6 months ago. https://www.redfin.com/CA/Palm-Springs/15880-La-Vida-Dr-92262/home/5713210 The structures in the backyard are privacy fences. The house has an attached casita (which they didn't show in the episode). It makes more sense when you see the aerial view pics from the listing.

Her outfit was hideous! Her pants were way to high and very unflattering and she wasn't thin or young enough to pull off that crop top. Her wardrobe improved a little as the show went on, but she really needs to accept her body type and dress more accordingly. I agree with everyone else that her eye makeup was awful. I'm over 40 and "rad" is still a regular part of my vocabulary but even I was annoyed at how much she used the word. But I'll take rad over AMAZING any day! Glad the Philly couple chose the first house. It was beautiful and the price was right!

The nurse was everything is this episode!! Glad the baseball storyline is over. No surprise that Grace would be having a boy and Will would be having a girl. Looking forward to seeing the series finale (again) - I've been over this reboot for a while now.

She has some gall to think someone is going to spend $50k MORE than what she bought it for a year ago when NOTHING has been done to the property. If anything, I would think the property would sell for less than what she paid for just because her name and crappy reputation is tied to it.

This show is growing on me, except for the daughter. She needs to go. And she should be looking for a new babysitter. I like Ken and Diaz together. I liked Ken's reason for wanting to work with the police and I liked that he kind of shut down Diaz about his brother living with him. "It doesn't work like that." The mayor moves on pretty fast! He separated from his wife 5 minutes ago and is already making the moves on the PR woman.

Considering the bone collector is supposed to be so meticulous, I would think he would have reattached the wainscoting panel to the wall a lot better. I knew the wife wouldn't get out of there alive. I don't know why she didn't call the police in the first place instead of waiting for the husband to get home. The nanny was a great actress...especially compared to Lincoln and Amelia who have the acting chops of a wet noodle. I just can't anymore with Lincoln. It really drives me mad that he knows EVERYTHING!! "I know that chirping noise. I heard it once 20 years ago. It's a parrot that is only found in this specific Brooklyn neighborhood." C'mon!! I was shocked that he admitted that he didn't know how to diffuse the bomb, but of course, he knew how to build one! Give me a break! I will continue to hate watch this show until it is cancelled...hopefully sooner than later.

IMO, the two lead actors are awful! And I can hand wave a lot, but Lincoln knowing EVERYTHING about EVERYTHING is really taking me out of the show. Just once I want to hear him say "I don't know...can someone Google it?" Michael Imperoli is way too good to be wasted on this garbage.

I love Joel McHale and he needs to be a series regular on another show. However, this episode was pretty dumb. I could see this story happening with Grace, but definitely not with Karen. Jack buying the bar plotline was pretty lame too.

Nice to see real life husband and wife Clark Gregg and Jennifer Grey. I'm not a fan of Dan getting annoyed/mad at Ed Jr because of what their dad didn't/did do. It's not Ed Jr's fault. I still think it's weird there hasn't at least been a throw away about Crystal. The flashback was great! Darlene and Ben thinking about having a baby is the STUPIDEST thing! 1. They just got back together even though they said last week that was a good reason to have a baby. 2. If I remember correctly, neither one of them is employed and they are both completely broke. 3. They don't even live together, let alone are married! I think at this point, I'm just hate watching this show which is shame because I loved the original run, but the reboot has been a hit or miss...a lot more miss lately.

I agree with everyone else regarding Miles and Cara. Normally, I enjoy this hokey little show, but tonight's episode was my least favorite. The kid steals $10k and he has no remorse and no punishment. Miles and the gang basically give him a second chance and he couldn't care less. The police should have been called by now, but no because he's a computer prodigy so I guess he's above the law? Then they give him a 3rd chance and he lies to them and is going to hack into the DoD anyway. He gets caught and nothing?! I hand wave a lot in this show, but the DoD just releasing him? No! And after committing numerous felonies, this punk is then rewarded for his bad behavior by working with Rakesh and then attending MIT?! No! No! No! No! I'm glad Ali has a love interest or at least a friend.

Throuple ep: I don't care what consenting adults do behind closed doors, but having THREE annoying people whine about not getting what they want in a house is just too much! Do three people really need to be getting ready in the morning at the exact same time that they need 3 sinks?! Come on! I agree with the others about them auditioning for a reality show. NYNY: $3500k for monthly fees?! They were a very mismatched couple and the wife was beyond annoying! And seriously with the dog? UGH! I hope they do a WATN ep - I would love to see this house after it's renovated.

Me too! I'll watch him in anything! Unfortunately, RL's track record for starring in a show that lasts for more than one season is slim to none. Totally agree! I'm fine with the diversity of characters; however, I think it would have been better if it were spread over the season instead of putting all of their backstories in the first show. The trans person could have casually mentioned being trans in another episode. And did the gay son have to introduced as gay and an opioid addict in the same/first episode? They couldn't have introduced Grace as Judd's wife in the 2nd ep? I agree with everyone else re: Liv Tyler. She has the acting range of a wet noodle! Watching her treat these victims/patients is the most unrealistic part...and for this show, that's saying A LOT! I think it took the entire Scooby Doo crew way too long to figure out it was the food that was the cause. Since everyone else in the building seemed to be fine and I assume a gas leak or carbon monoxide was ruled out, I would think the next logical step would be something they all ate.

NJ wife was a jerk to her husband in the beginning. I'm glad she wasn't as snide to him when they were looking at the houses. My gaydar was going off with the husband and not because of his horrible man bun.

Anthony Michael Hall! I loved when he showed Adam the pic of when he was a nerd! I ❤ 16 Candles! Seeing the old games was funny...the rest was meh. Since when is Johnny Atkins a popular kid?

I totally LOL'ed when Jo told Brooks after he kissed her that he was being so dramatic and "he wasn't going off to war!" Brooks is so easy on the eyes!! Currie Graham - the DOJ guy - plays shady characters so well! I hope he's in more episodes. I agree with others about the show kind of going in different directions each episode. I really hope it doesn't turn into "let's try this plot and see if it works" - looking at you Manifest.

I guess I'm in the minority here...I thought this episode was awful. The Darlene and Ben storyline was okay, but I'm not understanding the need for doing another print magazine. It's 2020...why wouldn't they do a website? I thought Becky's boyfriend was nice, but the entire family was rude to him from the get-go so I get why he thought they were all "toxic". I can understand being passionate about a sport/team,but they were all just being straight up jerks. And Lecy's "acting" was awful this episode.

This had to be one of the worst episodes ever! Debra Messing was trying way too hard. The Jack and Will storyline didn't really work either. I missed Karen.

Florida to Coronado: I had to laugh when the Dr said they wanted to move to San Diego so he would have a shorter commute. Seriously? Who moves to So California for a shorter commute? I was a little surprised at how small the backyards were at the houses they toured.

I'm not a fan of Liv Tyler either. Her onscreen performances and chemistry with her costars is worse than a wet noodle. However, I love me some Rob Lowe! Besides those two, I don't recognize the names of the other actors. Side note: Rob Lowe's son John Owen works for Ryan Murphy and he wrote the script for ep 6. I'm sure it's pure coincidence and there was no nepotism involved. 🙄

Not sure where to put this so it's going here. I thought this was interesting and here's hoping that if the Mormon church gets investigated by the IRS, that the case against Co$ will be reopened. https://www.cnn.com/2019/12/18/us/latter-day-saints-charity-funds-complaint/index.html

THIS!!! Hermann's a firefighter and he let his son go to a pool party without any parental supervision!!! Where were the parents? That's who Hermann should have been bitching out instead of his son who saved a life! The EMT's and everyone over the age of 14 were in long sleeves and jackets so it obviously wasn't summer, but yet there's a pool party? The tow truck driver scheme plotline was stupid. I didn't care for the Stella conference storyline either. She's not as experienced as the others but she answers one question correctly and suddenly she's Gabby?! Everybody nominates her because she's the best? Gag! I'm glad Cruz got engaged and it's not to someone from 51. Instead of eating up the clock with these lame subplots (newsletter, etc), I wish they would show them outside of work having a personal life...and not at Mollies and not with each other!

I think Jasmine's was the one they criticized because it wasn't custom. Hers and Leanne's looked very similar though - huge, but with just rods and shelves. That's custom enough for me though. The only closet I didn't like was Mina's because everything was behind those cabinet doors. Maybe one cabinet for jewelry, scarves and other accessories, but I like to see my clothes, shoes, etc out in the "open".

I didn't really care for any of the front yards/curb appeal. I don't know if they were limited due to the HOA or if they were all just meh because landscaping isn't their forte. If I had to choose though, Mina's was the best. I was glad to see Jasmine or Mina win - their houses were the most practical, family friendly and appealing to buyers. In the builder's model home, turning the half bath into a full bath is an upgrade, but Jasmine making it an en suite to the den/4th bedroom and adding the additional powder room definitely put her over the edge. Alison's brass on the exterior and front door looked tacky! I'm glad the stupid toilet and cheap floors were pointed out as a con as well as the wine room and secondary rooms just being staged. I'm so happy that she didn't win or even come in 2nd place. If Leanne would have kept the baseboards and added flooring in her house, Alison would have come in last. AV's comment about HER knowing more about design than the other ladies was totally snide and obviously completely untrue. I don't see the other designers going hundreds of thousands over budget and having HUGE problems in every episodes of their shows, I don't see the other designers having their work suspended by the city they work in, I don't see the other designers having their homes sit on the market because they are so overpriced and I don't see the other designers having legal issues due to shoddy workmanship. I hope Ari took the first flight home because I'm sure Alison blamed him for EVERYTHING!! I liked that Mina added the secret office and dual vanity. However, her house looks like an upgraded staged home. On the flip side, her house will definitely be the easiest for a buyer to "put their own stamp" on. Say what you will about Leanne, but her house does look like it belongs in a magazine. She is the only one that moved walls, made and took extra sq footage and totally went outside the box. When the other ladies walked in, you could tell they were shocked (in a good way) and appreciated and respected Leanne's vision. Her house will sell quickly for two reasons: 1. It looks nothing like the other tract homes in the community and 2. the master bathroom. Flooring, baseboards, and some desert landscaping can easily be installed (pricey, but easy) over a high end custom master bath. As for the secondary bedrooms and bathroom, I can understand why she left them - kitchens and baths sell houses and that's where she spent all her money. However, she could have easily and inexpensively staged them so they didn't look so unfinished. I did like that she added an extra living area, but I wouldn't be able to live in her house unless it was just me and maybe a goldfish. I hope there is a season 2...without Alison!
