Trading Spaces fans: Be sure to tune in next week to see Hildy....

[Liberal Veteran]

...screw up a room by gluing cardboard on the walls.

And here I thought the feathers, the hay, and the silk flowers were the rock bottom.

[proud patriot]

1. OMG she and Doug are the worst

I remember when they stopped her from spray painting a couch
pink .....

Doug and his movie theater living room was terrible

[buddhamama]

2. you forgot the grass walls

we were just discussing Hildy's bad designs here the other day.

:puke:

[Alenne]

3. She keeps the show interesting

Vern, Laurie and Frank are so predictable. But Hildy and Doug really know how to screw up a room.

[amandae]

6. When they really screw up a room ....

(i.e., when Hildy is working) and the residents hate it, does the show pay to fix it?

If they do, I'd see Hildy as a liability and too costly for an asset ... in other words, reason to fire her!

:hi:

[Alenne]

7. no

That's the risk you take when you go on the show.

[amandae]

11. Well ... that really sucks

If I saw Hildy coming towards my house, I'd run the other way. I wonder how many people have changed their minds after finding out she's one of the "decorators" - or if they make them sign contracts to be in the show before revealing the designers?

4. Don't forget polka dot puppet theater

That one made the kid cry when he saw his room.

Oh yeah and you must have missed the one where she glued moss to the walls....I could smell that one through the screen!

[ironflange]

16. Strangely, that was Genevieve who did the moss

[proud patriot]

18. that's who I remember doing the moss to

that was one of the first shows I saw .
Was hooked after that .

[Blade]

5. Frank owns!

the other people suck. (Except that female carpenter, Amy something, she's hot!)

[TNDemo]

8. Do you know which city it will be in?

They did one near me recently and I was wondering when it would be on. I never watch but I will if I can figure out when it will be.

[CO Liberal]

9. Paige Davis Asked Hilde If She Would Put Feathers On Her Walls

Hilde said "Of couse, not." Because every wall in her house is WHITE!!!

Her clients and the homeowners on "Trading Spaces" get stuck with the crappy wall treatments.

[BlackVelvetElvis]

10. I'm wondering if Hildy does this...

stuff (with the producers' ok) just so they can get an emotional reaction from the homeowners-good teaser material for the commercials.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

12. Oh, Hildy, How much do I loathe thee?

She has horrible taste in stuff, and can't relate to these homeowners because she spends literally THOUSANDS for ugly shoes. She doesn't care if something is practical or not for a family. She just wants to see how wild she can get. I loathe her.

[Overkil]

13. I think she's nutz

they just have her there for the controversy

[morningglory]

14. As a Southerner who was raised Baptist, we never went into a store or

establishment that sold beer or liquor--EVER. That has all changed, but I nearly cried for the tee-totaler christians who go 6,000 wine labels pasted on their walls and a big wine rack taking up space in the middle of the kitchen. While I was weeping I was hoping they were Repubs.

[grasswire]

17. that one bothered me, too

...although didn't they change the wine rack into a pot rack?

But the feathers. That was ridiculous and ugly beyond belief.

She should go. She'd never get paid by a client for what she does.

[Tripper11]

15. Changing Rooms on BBC America

beats Trading Spaces by far. You still get some crazy stuff happening nonetheless, but I prefer it much more.

[angee_is_mad]

19. lol,

I guess she is gonna F@#K someone else's house up. I', starting to think that she is doing these things on purpose.
