Extreme Makeover: Home Edition

Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (simplicity utoris malfolio) is an Emmy Award-winning ABC reality television series that began broadcasting on November 3, 2003 as a special and as a regular television series since February 15, 2004 (the show also broadcasts on People + Arts in Portugal, Spain, Latin America) and on DMAX in Germany, in which a family's house, including all rooms, exterior and landscaping, is made over by a team of builders and designers in 7 days while the family goes off on vacation. It is a spinoff of Extreme Makeover. The series is a production of Endemol USA (the people behind Big Brother, Fear Factor, Deal or No Deal, and other reality shows) in association with Disney/Buena Vista's Greengrass Productions.

The show is one of ABC's top-rated series and has become more popular than the original Extreme Makeover, which struggled to air through its last two seasons and quietly ended with its episodes burned off wholesale in July 2007. The fifth season of the show premiered on September 30, 2007. [1] Series reruns began airing on TV Land on August 7, 2007, making it the youngest non-original show to air on the network.

It was announced on February 28, 2008 that Extreme Makeover: Home Edition was renewed through the 2008-2009 season.[2]
