So with all the renovations, cost for replacements and such....more $$$

what are they going to do with the house when it is completed?
We must be close in age. Yes, the Partridge Family was on ABC right after The Brady Bunch. I think the shows were on Friday night, and both shows were must watch viewing for me.

I read online that HGTV will hold on to the house for awhile for publicity, public events and using it for stays for contest winners. I think it would be a kick to stay in the house for a week. I would love to know what happens to the house a few years down the road.

Too bad my dad finally got rid of the pink shag and brown shag carpeting that was in 2 bedrooms in the house I grew up in. I could have sold the carpeting to HGTV for this show. He still has a brown coppertone stove from 1964 in his kitchen (I am not kidding). Maybe HGTV could use it. . . hmmm
