10 Shows to Watch If You Like Fixer Upper

An oldie but a goodie, this Emmy-winning PBS series has been running since 1979 and was originally hosted by home improvement guru Bob Vila. What makes it unique is that instead of wrapping up one renovation per episode, This Old House will focus on one house for several weeks. Sometimes one house is the focus of an entire season, but more often a season will feature two or three houses. Still, it's neat to watch a renovation take place at a slower place, which gives us more info on the hows, the how-tos, and the whys of fixing up an old house.
