Extreme Makeover Weight Loss Edition. Buy season. Can't play on this device. Check system requirements. Other seasons. As an actor I was reluctant but as a father of twins I thought, 'I'll do what I gotta do. Host Ty Pennington got his start as a model and later worked as an assistant on the show Leaving Las Vegas.

While the show was active, anyone could apply to be on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. The application was quite long, and it took a while to hear back. The families chosen for the show had all gone through unbelievable hardships, making the process of going through them all a heart-breaking one. You'd have to be emotionally dead to make it through an entire episode of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition without a few tissues. Seeing a hardworking family being given their dream home made you feel good.

You just knew things were going to turn around for them. However, while the house was free to the families, the rest wasn't. Many of these families were left with giant mansions that required higher taxes, utility bills, and upkeep. India Dickinson and her family were given a beautiful 4, square-foot home , but were barely making ends meet before the show.

When I first heard about a free house going into foreclosure, I was confused. I figured the families must have squandered their money away on frivolous cars and luxuries.

How could you lose a house that was given to you? Well it's a little more complicated than that. Because most of the families on the show are barely scraping by, any new expense can put them over the edge. When their taxes and utility bills are doubled, tripled, even quadrupled, they simply cannot keep up.

In , the Harvey family was given a spacious 4, square-foot house, but the bank auctioned it off six years later. This pattern became common with many former guests of the show, who took mortgages out on their new, expensive homes to pay off old bills or start new ventures. It's hard to say where the fault lies. Should ABC have given families smaller homes, or should the families have not accepted the mansions?

The St. Augustine Record reported the show built a six-bedroom, seven-bath mansion for a family of four, which many would say is more house than they ever needed.
