Extreme Makeover Home Edition in the VI
Posted: Sun Oct 22, 2006 9:24 pm
The crew of the TV show Extreme Makeover Home Edition has filmed several episodes in the Virgin Islands, with two more episodes to follow.
This show is about building a new home for a deserving family in need - in one week. The original house is demolished and the family is sent on a one-week vacation while a huge team involving Ty Pennington, designers, builders and volunteers does the tear-down and rebuild at home.
So far, two families have spent a week here on the catamaran Catnap.

One family was here in September and I think that episode may be airing next Sunday night, October 29th.
The second family was just here this past week and if you were here, you know they didn't have the greatest week weather-wise, but I hear they loved it anyway. It was a very large family and they actually needed Catnap and another boat called Topcat.
This episode will probably air in January.
Most of the show will obviously be about the efforts of the team on the homefront, but you may see places and people you recognize from St. Thomas and St. John in the "vacation" segments.
I love this family show and am Extremely impressed with the concept, the execution and the crew members I've met.
Watch It!
