Ok - the room looked nice. The homeowner totally **** her pants over it. Duh - like your friends actually get to <i>pick</i> your room color! :sigh: Ya big freakin baby!
Now - I am off to watch What Not To Wear - my new favorite show!

I hate to admit it but I am hooked by both of those shows and watch them every saturday night.
I agree - she was a b---h! And who can hate taupe?? It's basic.
The opera singer was great - very neat woman.

I'm not sure which reveal has been the worst - Doug's fireplace bawler or this one, but this one is sure up there on the list! Didn't they tease the segment with the two women wrestling on the floor? I didn't see that in the final reveal. I thought the room looked great. OK, so it was brown, and apparently she has issues with orange as well.
I think I like the women on BBC's WNTW a little better than the TLC team - they're just a smidge too mean and need to wratchet it back a bit. Thought the opera singer took it all in stride, though. How may people do you know would be shown in a dressing room with a guy getting lessons on how to be fitted for a corset?

Heh, I missed this episode, did Hildi get hold of her room? I can count on less than one hand the number of rooms done by Hildi that I actually like.

Kim -
Surprisingly, it was a Laurie room that the female homeowner freaked out about. I am not always thrilled with her color choices (yellow, apricot, brown), at least she doesn't damage the homeowners room. Plus - she always gets some gorgeous fabrics!

This woman was a nut! I thought the room looked fabulous and I don't like brown either. I was not aware that the BBC also did a version of WNTW - I enjoy watching Stacy and Wayne. Plus, I think he's a cutie. Those eyes! :flirt:

I started to feel sorry for the opera singer. Then, she got all snotty and bitchy. But, they did a good job cleaning her up. No more .99 underwear! EW!

that was hysterical..I thought they should have totally kicker her butt. I don't like brown at all but c'mon, that room was awesome. Most of the times I don't like the colors they pick but it ends up being really nice. What a b---- that woman was. Have an open mind when it comes to this. I would totally not be that chicks friend anymore. My neice throws tantrums like that but she's 2.
I feel bad for Laurie in all this but I thought MPDP handled herself pretty well.
