Final Taste Patrol

Note: Our wonderful Ms. Place is jetting around the globe and asked that we fill in for her this week. Miss you Ms. Place.


Three Hula Men Bobble Award

The Three Hula Men Bobble Award goes to Ed and Carl and their hard working teams. This would not have been much of a season without all the talent these individuals brought to each designer.



Week after week, they were the backbone of each of the finished rooms.

They faced demanding challenges,

time lines,

supply issues and diva designers.

They lost their cool at times and almost a thumb...

but hung in there for each episode. They gave their all long before they learned they might also win $10,000. They did it for the designers, not the money.

Two Hula Men Bobble Award

The Two Hula Men Bobble Award goes to both Matt and Carisa for the designs of each loft.

You both put heart and soul into those lofts ...

but did not sit on your ass and watch the crew do all the work.

You noted their talent and gave credit where credit was due.

Then gave up the diva role, and let them do what they needed to do.

Kudos to both of you for a job well done.

The Trash it Award

The Trash It Award goes to Bravo. What a load of shovable crapola you put this crew through. Watching them work this hard was almost as painful as watching Ed cut his thumb.

First, no freight elevator for moving the tons of materials, appliances and furniture up to the 3rd and 6th floors. Bravo we have 1 word for you, used 3 times. Learn it, remember it, don't let it happen again. LOCATION. LOCATION. LOCATION.

You hand out a wad of money for each of the designers to use, assure them their lofts will be painted and the floors done... BEFORE construction begins. Then you cut corners in doing the floors. WTF!?!?!

More than once, you made our beloved Carl hold his head.
