The first two seasons were a breath of fresh air because it was every day people who were passionate about history and wanted to update the home to look like the home it was originally and stay true to the history, with a few upgrades in functionality for modern convenience. The third season is almost an advertisement for professionals, where they want an old home and make it modern, which seems to go against the title of the series, with the exception of Jeff Devlin, as he does respect the history and does it professionally and has a show that highlights it. Making old homes modern is a delicate balance, which most people get. Hopefully season 4 will go back to that.
While this show doesn't show the slow, arduous process and pitfalls, they do acknowledge the drudgery of it multiple times. Old homes are hand built and there wasn't standards like today, but that's what gives them character. This show does a decent job highlighting that.
The show is nicely paced, the hosts are the homeowners, and it's divided into 3 distinct sections. It's a calm show to watch on weekends, though hearing more about the history would be nice.
