The Emmy-nominated home-renovation series has gone from cult favorite to breakout hit. The setup: Two pairs of friends swap houses and work with a designer and a carpenter for two days to remodel a room on a set budget, with a bubbly host overseeing the proceedings. Of course, some results are more sensational than others, and that's part of the fun in this much-imitated series. 'Trading Spaces' and its two spin-offs ('Boys vs. Girls' and 'Family') are based on the British show 'Changing Rooms.'

    Posted by SchuylerV...Jeers to Trading Spaces for bringing back Paige Davis. Was she this annoying back in the show’s heyday? Probably, but the show’s uniqueness made it so popular I guess we all accepted her hyperactive “charm.” (And a personal Jeer-within-a-Jeer to Davis for sporting what must be the most unflattering hairstyle seen on TV today!) Why can’t shows like this just be allowed to die natural deaths?• Read and react to Bruce Fretts' opinions on Lost's "rescue" team, CBS' Welcome to the Captain, the return of late-night TV and more!• Share your own raves and rants about other shows on the Reader Cheers & Jeers discussion board.• We may feature your Cheer or Jeer on TVGuide.com or in TV Guide magazine! read more
  • Why Paige Davis Returned to Trading Spaces (and Vice Versa) | Today's News: Our Take | 1/26/2008
    Paige Davis — perky as ever, but older, wiser and with darker, straighter hair — thought long and hard before agreeing to return to TLC's Trading Spaces, the genre-establishing home-makeover show that made her famous in 2001 and then abruptly fired her in 2005 because producers wanted the show to go in a different direction. Which it did — straight down the ratings tubes. Now Davis is back and the new season premieres tonight at 10 pm/ET. When new management took over at TLC last year, one of their first priorities was revitalizing Trading Spaces, which at its peak drew as many as nine million viewers and was consistently Saturday night's top-rated cable show. Brant Pinvidic, TLC's new senior vice president of programming, decided the only way to save the franchise was to get Davis back in the fold. It w read more
  • Trading Spaces Makeover Brings Back Paige Davis | Today's News: Our Take | 11/15/2007
    Looking to revive cable's once-dominant Saturday-night program, TLC is giving Trading Spaces a fresh coat of paint and some kicky throw rugs and bringing back former host Paige Davis, Variety reports. Explaining the series' waning appeal since Davis' departure, TLC president Angela Shapiro-Mathes says, "It was no longer unique, it didn't have a clean format and it didn't have a host that said Trading Spaces." Of course, that last quibble could merely be the TelePrompTer's fault.Trading Spaces will "relaunch" as early as January. read more
  • Trading Spaces' Vern Offers an Extreme Makeover | Today's News: Our Take | 6/15/2007
    Any Trading Spaces or HGTV addict out there knows Vern Yip and his clean designs. Now you have a chance to have him give your home office a $25,000 makeover. Enter by writing a 250-word essay talking about how technology can improve your life and office sitch; 10 finalists get a Microsoft software package. "I'm all about making spaces more usable and friendly, and more productive," says Yip. "[The home office] is no longer just a place where you go to pull up a recipe or find a movie time. They are real offices." For cubicle dwellers who don't work from home, here's a Yip tip: "The smaller the amount of space you have to work with, the more important it is that you take a hard line about what is necessary, and have just one or two things that are inspirational."In addition to judging the new Design Star debuting July 22 ("The talent this year is way over where it was last season!"), Yip has a new show, Deserving Design, premiering Sept. 12.
