Keep a box of tissues handy for Extreme Makeover: Home Edition because the tears of happiness WILL gush! You possibly will need to plug your ears when Ty Pennington belts out his well-known "Move that bus!!!!" How moving that bus has changed so many lives for so many needy families. I don’t know about you, but it is what’s lurking behind that big bus which keeps us absolutely riveted from week-to-week: a house pimped out to the extreme. It's tremendously enriching, as the renovated home always belongs to a deserving family. It's extreme transformation. And it’s exceptionally community-oriented.

You’ll see besmirched kitchens get completely tricked out, spa-inspired bathrooms built where icky ones once were, and Olympic-sized swimming pools installed in what were once shabby overgrown yards. It's stuff we know you’d want at your own pad—and then some. And Ty and his crew do it from the ground up, adding five-star luxuries and the occasional theme park attraction. These extreme home makeovers go above and beyond most people’s imaginations.

From the moment he gives his “Good Morning” wakeup call, Ty is bent on bringing neighbors together—one ecologically aware brick at a time. It’s a race against time on a project that would normally span several months, involving a team of designers, contractors and hundreds of workers who all have just seven days to totally rebuild an entire house! I can’t even get my household chores done in seven days!

Before you start getting all green-eyed, the lucky homeowners always have a inspirational back-story: Heroes, community leaders, and a overabundance of inspirational families are truly the heart and soul of the show. There's that saying, "home is where the heart is," and Extreme Makeover: Home Edition puts the heart right where it belongs. A show that really gives back to the communities in need.


About Ty pennington!
Of course his design and carpentry skills are top notch, but we can't get enough of Ty's warm enthusiasm, his infectious smile and his never-ending supply of hugs. And we can't think of anyone we'd rather have standing on our lawn yelling "Good Morning!" at us through a megaphone. Can you?

The unmistakable Ty Pennington has helped transform the lives of dozens while inspiring millions more as the host of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. Under Ty's guidance, the show has two Emmys and two People's Choice Awards. In 2008, Ty took his talents to Great Britain for Ty's Great British Adventure, a community-improvement series airing on UKTV.

All in all, this is a great family show with much inspiration that leaves you feeling good at the end of the evening. Move that bus!
