Move that bus!
Fans of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition will be thrilled to learn the reality series will be returning to ABC this fall. The news comes roughly one year after ABC revealed a reboot was in the works after the series aired for a short time on HGTV.
The original version of the renovation show, which aired on ABC from 2004 to 2012, featured families dealing with some type of hardship.
Ty Pennington and his crew would swoop in, renovate the deserving recipients’ home, and then unveil the finished product in front of members of their community.
Rarely was there a dry eye in the crowd.
Unfortunately, when Extreme Makeover: Home Edition returns this fall, Pennington won’t be the one leading everyone in yelling “Move that bus!”
This “new iteration” will feature Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin, the cofounders of lifestyle brand The Home Edit, as the hosts. The two are already authors of three New York Times best-selling books and hosts of their own Netflix show, Get Organized with The Home Edit.
Although there will be some noticeable differences, the show will follow the same format as in previous years.
“In each episode of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, Shearer and Teplin will meet a deserving family in need of a new home. Leaning into their organizing expertise and unique design aesthetic, the duo will work with each family to evaluate and edit every single item they own, ultimately transforming not only their home but the way they live. Assisting them is a team of builders and contractors from homebuilder Taylor Morrison who will expertly reconfigure the home based on the family’s lifestyle and needs,” a press release from ABC stated.
