I liked this show. The houses looked amazing from the outside. We couldn't see much of the inside of many houses, which was disappointing. Did get to see the hosts talking a lot though and the guy scribble on paper some. The views from the homes were inspiring however

Great idea, interesting locations and houses and amazing scenery...BUT yes the lady is annoying, she is too much really, why doesnt the director say something?? And also the irritating thing is actually the amount of money spent for these houses. In second episode that stupid forest house cost 150 million(??!) are you serious? This is just greedy. Seriously. Its just a house. So many lives could be saved with 150 million dollars! People are so greedy and selfish. I was annoyed.

This show was a total waste of time. Both my girlfriend and I were so irritated with the hosts' incessant gushing and giggling about the most mundane features of these supposedly extraordinary homes along with the never-ending laughing at every un-funny thing that came out of their mouths, that we barely made it through the first episode. They said the most ridiculous things. How does a concrete block house blend in with nature? The concrete walls were reminiscent of a prison. And how do you have a "once in a lifetime view," repeatedly? How does the wing of a 747 make a home "feminine?" How, by any stretch of the imagination, can a house with an interior made primarily of plywood be considered "extraordinary?" How can Piers say that if you get "dealing with the weather" right everything else is secondary, yet in the very next scene claim that everything is secondary to the feel (atmosphere) of the place? Ugh. These two were clearly so giddy about having their very own show where they could be the spotlight in every scene that they forgot the premise of the show was about the HOMES, not them. An hour of life wasted.

I tried watching this and couldn't stomach the host. She is old, unattractive, annoying and constantly gushing about the unimportant aspects of the homes and hamming it up ina flirtatious way that just comes off as gross. I just couldn't stand it after one episode. Replace the unbearable host with someone more charming and knowledgeable and I'll give it another try.
