I have watched several episodes of this show. Great host, and wonderful families you'll follow as they select their dream home after winning the lotto. No, they don't mention their actually take home pay after taxes.
Now, here's where this show is not actually realistic to me. I'm a homeowner (didn't win the lotto) but it took me touring more than a dozen homes with my realtor to actually find the one. So, naturally I'm a bit skeptical when lottery winners decide on their dream home based off of "touring" ONLY 3 homes. While we are seeing the homes, I carefully look a staged homes decor for inspiration, including the wall art. However, I have noticed the homes these families chose have the same furniture seen during the home tour.
I have noticed when they give us an update on the families after they've moved in, they wont' do a before and after of the decor. Many have the updates filmed either outside or in the kitchen where you don't see much decor in the background unless you look hard. Why? Because I believe these families most likely had already bought and living in the home before it was filmed for the show. In one of their newest episodes, I saw a fully furnished home (with no family pics on the wall) that the lotto couple ended up choosing in the end and when they did the update, I noticed the exact same furniture in the background, including TV, home decor, wall art and the only difference was they added a family pics to the wall. I quickly noticed that on a few more episodes after that.
I still love the show and happy to see these lotto winners actually move into their dream home. Regardless if they had already been living there before filming. I tune in for the home tours and the reno ideas from the host. I will still watch.
score 5/10
