The American version was called Cash in the Attic; I can't remember if that was the name of the British version.

I noticed, though, that as the years went on, more and more stuff was "gifted" (so they might be given new carpet, new bedroom furniture, and a new fridge) and yet the total needed for the design kept rising. And somehow, they'd always make $2,000 to $4,000 at the yard sale. Um… what? I much prefer the earlier…
I love Rehab Addict. Nicole Curtis is (or at least is edited to seem) really dedicated to preserving historic details in old homes and she salvages a TON of stuff.
Didn't Gen glue moss all over the place in one house?
Frank was way too into shabby chic for my taste. Too much country floral and too much distressed furniture.
Wait, in what way is What Not to Wear an imitation of Trading Spaces?
I hate that trope. I assume most characters get the money from the same tree that provides them funds to live in disproportionately nice homes. In Sheldon's case, though, it's been established that he only spends about half of what he makes and is saving the rest because most of the things he wants haven't been…
I really feel like this show has everything it needs to work; it just needs to pull stuff together. Wilson and Marino are treasures and I love them. JoBeth Williams, Tim Meadows, and Dan Bucatinsky can add some real fun if used sparingly. Gemberling has shown that he can play more that just the manic weirdo notes and…
I'm still amused by her "We're not great" from the tornado episode. I think Kay could be amazing.
If we could just trade Gil for Max and Dennah for Alex, the show would be so much better. (Although it would still be missing the superstar that is Jane Kerkovich-Williams.)
Lori Mills, not Laurie Mills.
Yeah, when I think of a bottle episode, I think of something like "The One Where No One's Ready" from Friends. (Although Joey does leave to put on all of Chandler's clothes, we don't see anything outside of Monica and Rachel's apartment.)
I'm still mad that poor Jerry never got the credit he deserved for his awesome mural idea.
No one likes when you do that.
Oh man, this still makes me sad.
I really didn't like what they did with Allison Tolman's character. I loved that she wasn't a typical girly girl, but there was no reason she couldn't be a mature adult (who was frankly too good for Peter) rather than someone who got so high she couldn't remember what room she'd just left. If they were trying to make…
Every interview of his that I read/see/listen to makes me love him more.
Her necklace started glowing when she got all wide-eyed over the kid, so I'm hoping it's some kind of spell over her.
How could you not mention Holt's reaction to guessing the reason Amy was late? I cackled out loud.
I was so happy for good ole Winnie the Bish at the end of this episode, and more importantly, I love that they are using Lamorne Morris more. I adore him.
