Holmes on homes
Edited on Fri Jun-29-07 08:52 PM by warrior1
This guy rocks, as does his crew. I'm so hooked into the show. Does anyone else watch?



This is Mike Holmes. For those of you unfamiliar, Mike is somewhat of a Super Hero Contractor who comes in to fix problems where careless, unskilled, and unscrupulous contractors left in a mess. Desperate home owners call Mike and he arrives with a crew of side-kicks to save the day.

1. Oh Yeah.......
I love Holmes on Homes. I try to catch his show every Saturday on HGTV. Also, Mike is one hot looking guy. If it were up to me, his show would be renamed "Holmes on Querelle".

6. That's freakin' hilarious!
Howz the face by the way? Was it worth it? I'm asking because it's something I'm considering. PM me if you don't want to publicize it. My wife says I'm stupid for wanting to, but as I tell her, there's no cure for vanity.

2. He cleans up messes made by other contracters
and there seems to be no shortage of crooks and incompetents out there. It makes me think that doing any home renovation is a total crapshoot---and chances are the homeowner loses.

4. Lordy! What a hottie!
I've never seen this show. I'm ashamed to say, though, that I watch a lot of HGTV shows just for the hot guys.

5. He always brings in the best specialist
for the job. And I've seen him pay for some of the renovations out of his own pocket. I sure would like to meet him.

8. Sting on steroids
;)

The show is great. Very educational and he seems like a really good guy. The crew can do anything, evidently.

Somebody should make a Holmes Action Figure! Lets make heroes out of decent, caring craftsmen and maybe some kids will wanna grow up to be like them.
