HGTV Design Star: Home & Garden Television


I have a new guilty pleasure - watching Design Star on HGTV. I had heard about it the last couple of years, but managed to not get hooked. Well this summer I gave in - tried watching it, and now have it taking up space on our DVR. It's a reality show, but they seem to play nice so far. And I am enjoying some of the designers and their talents a bunch. My favorite is Dan. Is he everybody's favorite?

I like Dan. But unfortunately that doesn't bode well for him as My favorites from season 1 and 2 got knocked out early. LOL don't wait they will get nasty and try and cut each others throats. As for the judges, Candice olson is a definite improvement, Vern Yip is (as usual) A stick in the mud with no vision, and Genevive is a Stepford wife of the seasons 1 &2 judges.

I don't know who my pick is, yet! But I really do enjoy this show.

I agree. I'm rooting for Dan. Loved his white room and I like the judges much better than previous years. The only bad part is my DVR keeps recording reruns.

I do like Dan's design sense and his personality, too. I hope he at least makes the finals! I just have too many opinions on this to clutter up your comments section, so I'll post about it on my design blog! ;0)

Dan is a definite contender but time will tell. I thought the room he and Nathan did in the house, the dining room was brilliant. His white room was a great example of the task at hand... but lets really get down to why you like him.....He reminds you of ME!! LOL Who loves ya Lisa? T

I love Design Star and always look forward to a new season. It's still a little early but I'm leaning most towards Dan right now.
My favorites always seem to come in second place though.

My favorite was Natalie, but she was the first to go. I felt so sorry for her, I have the exact same prob. she had! I really thought they dumped her too early! But I know you'd have to be strong to go through what they put them through! So far, all has got the boot that I wanted!! I think Antonio and Dan will be the last ones standing. The girls are good, but seem weak compared to the two guys. We'll see what happens! YES.. as you can see I am ADDICTED too!! and it is taking up space on my DVR too!!
