HGTV Has Some Really Great Things Queued Up for 2020

Fasten your seatbelts, HGTV aficionados. It's shaping up to be a banner year for America's favorite home network. The people who bring you Property Brothers, Fixer Upper, Good Bones, Home Town, Hidden Potential, Restored by the Fords and A Very Brady Renovation (to name just a few) are keeping the momentum amped up this year. The network's latest lineup promises to continue to deliver the best in feel-good TV to its legion of fans — with an eye toward "keeping it real" while always drawing on the touchstone themes of transformation and inspiration.

"We’ve planned more than 700 hours of incredible new content this year," says HGTV president Jane Latman. "Our upcoming series will attract more viewers and be more evocative and emotional, with an emphasis on the ups and downs of real life. Things might go wrong, or they might go right when you’re trying to create the perfect home, but either way, HGTV will be there."

Go Extreme or Go Home

So, what's new, exactly? Let's start with this: Sunday, February 16 at 9|8c, the world’s biggest, most inspirational and aspirational home show ever — Extreme Makeover: Home Edition — will make its auspicious return to television with 10 new episodes airing Sunday nights on HGTV. This new take on the classic home series is hosted by Jesse Tyler Ferguson, known to TV viewers for his role as Mitch on the groundbreaking, multi-Emmy-award-winning ensemble comedy, Modern Family.

This new update of the classic renovation series promises to be even bigger, bolder and grander in scale than the original. In addition to the new host, it will feature three talented designers who are new to HGTV — Breegan Jane, Carrie Locklyn and Darren Keefe. The monumental production will follow the team and thousands of volunteers as they complete stunning home overhauls for ten deserving families. The stunning whole-home overhauls will include interior, exterior and landscaping — all completed in record time while the family is away.

Featured guests in the series' first season include (among others) two-time Grammy winner LeAnn Rimes; Food Network's Tyler Florence; Ty Pennington of the original ABC version of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and HGTV renovation pros David Bromstad, Jasmine Roth, Tamara Day and Tarek El Moussa.

This special event-series will kick off a year of HGTV programming that will include both new and returning shows from familiar talent — as well as brand new series featuring new experts with innovative approaches to buying, selling and renovating homes. Expect some celebrity surprises along with the kind of original, compelling and relatable stories that HGTV fans love.
