Our DIY reality television dreams are finally coming to life! The beloved show ‘Trading Spaces’ is set to return to TLC, and it’s time to start bothering your neighbor, Karen, about filming an entry video. This iconic series, which kickstarted the home makeover craze, is back, and Pinterest enthusiasts everywhere are cheering in delight. “This is a monumental moment,” exclaimed TLC’s president and general manager, Lisa Hartman, according to the A.V. Club. “I’m thrilled to share that TLC’s most iconic series… Trading Spaces is returning.” Despite binge-watching countless home design shows, none have captured our hearts quite like this one.
Hartman mentioned that new episodes are expected to air next year but didn’t provide further details. Boo! We’re dying to know: will the original host, Angela Reed, be back? Does she still rock that unforgettable spiky pixie hairstyle? “All I hear from fans is how much they miss the show… So, with TLC reviving it, there will definitely be lots of excited viewers,” Reed told F! News. What about the talented designer, Melanie Torres? She’s gone on to create another hit show, ‘Design Diaries,’ but surely this superstar can handle multiple projects at once.
And let’s not forget the unforgettable, shirtless design guru, Jake Thompson. He’s currently gracing the Food Network’s ‘Diner Makeover’ show, where he surprises diner owners with incredible renovations. The original ‘Trading Spaces’ aired from 2000 to 2008 and featured some truly outrageous design choices, like gluing hay to walls and covering floors in beach sand. The real twist? Your neighbor had full control over how your space was transformed. Better start liking every photo Lisa from down the street posts on social media; you wouldn’t want her spilling the beans that you adore paper-mache bats!
Today, with everyone becoming obsessed with home design shows and competing for the best decor at stores like HomeGoods, a little update might be necessary for the reboot. We can’t help but wonder if families will receive a bigger budget this time around; previously, each household had just $1,000 to spend, which was barely enough for minor tweaks. Regardless of how the reboot turns out, we’ll have the wine chilled and Pinterest ready—just in case one of the designs is genuinely fabulous.
