I thought that too. I cringed when I saw them painting that woodwork. Everything they did designwise could have been accomplished with a slightly warmer palette and leaving the woodwork.
What the heck! Why in the world did she paint the brick??!!!! Gezzz! If this was my home I would be absolutely livid at the destruction! Shame, shame, shame!!! Lowered the value of the vintage bungalow. Please never use this woman again! What did "she" do with the mission style furniture he had which totally went with the style of the home? The thing I did like is this is a wonderful family and he makes a GREAT father! His children are lucky! This was a poor rescue due to the decorator. I think George should go back ad do a "re-rescue."
Surprised the owner would allow the designer to paint over the natural wood, bricks. I get she wanted to lighten the room up, but bet she could have come up with other ways to do it.
I love this show but damn the most tears I had from this episode was the destruction of the amazing fireplace why just why ............and those kids are just the best
Omg right,the second she painted it I cringed ...its the only episode I thought NOOOO dont do that ...it came out nice, I just wouldn't have painted it ...
Congratulations on your recovery. . I am so proud of you! Your a great father and a very good (and quite handsome) man. Your art is intriguing. Funny dog. Lovely children. Thanks George for the blessings you shared with these guys.
George your a wonderful man. You did a great thing for what's clearly a single dad and a truly talented man I love all your shows. But please never use that designer again. My heart dropped when I saw that woodwork painted and the tile destroyed. To the artist you have an amazing talent and a beautiful family and the perfect dog
This man has done a magnificent job bringing up his children………what a lovely family…..Dad be proud of what you achieved and become……you have an awe beautiful family💙
That so-called designer ruined a wonderful little house. Her desire for "modern" killed classic timeless. The only GTTR I've hated... though of course I love dad and the kids: how could I not?
When kids grow up go their own ways, want to sell the house. SHUTE in price because of degradation of original features. Boxed over features to modernise would have been less harmful. But the windows! Kept railings in front 1 good point. In UK if you have a Classed House because of Architectural interest. You are not allowed to alter it . National Heritage . Can be a pain, but help to save the finest historical Designs and Architecture . Painting as an out let of expression Fine . I studied 'Hitoire de L'Art' at the Sorbonne in Paris My painting is not genial like most of what is done . Overrated Few' Turners ',Hoppers, Picasso, Klimt, ........
What a lovely family! They are very sweet. I liked this rescue because of them. But the tree-felling in the garden was painful to watch. They were beautiful and their uprooting was unnecessary.
@@irajayrosen4792 this is not the first rule. At school the first thing they teach is don't listen, or more like listen to the heart of it and his heart didnt care that much about that (he cared about an updated family friendly space that was safe and updated). People get emotional and attached to all kinds of out dated and plain weird ideas. A woman was once convinced she wanted a 40 ft foot rooster from floor to vaulted ceiling top.... um no we went with roosters in a better way. And she loved it, as did this family.
The proof is in the kids. What a couple of living testimonies to a life of artfully done and skilfully executed both family and team.A s for painting the wood:It suits being a backdrop for art.
Can not believe they painted the original wooden features to add a 'fashion' colour grey. Others people Buy a house for its 'Art Deco style and restore to its original beauty . Can any one imagine Painting over Frank Lloyd Wright?
They painted the fireplace and wood! Like what kind of crazy is that! If designers have to be part of some kind of designers guild, that designer should be dis-barred for the desecration of heritage items! Also, at the beginning the home had 2 beautiful mid-century chairs which were much nicer than the modern replacements.
George, I'm one of your biggest fans. But you fumbled the ball on this one. Please learn something about historic architecture. There are very few original Sears houses left, and even fewer are in the vintage condition you destroyed. I hope you didn't throw out the inner door - part of the original house. But as a recovering alcoholic, I thank you for taking care of my brother and his kids. Oh, I still love you and your show. Just not the job you let her do on this house.
Every time someone wants to put a tv/monitor screen over a fireplace I worry that the heat from the fireplace when it's running will get to the electronics. Heat is the sworn enemy of electronics and if the heat from the fireplace gets to the screen, it will last only a fraction of its normal life.
Um. I was in the top ten or so of my college art classes. Just to clarify something; most studio artists in the northern hemisphere will look for natural light from northern sources, partly because the light is more consistent and casts fewer shadows to tire the eyes as they work. In the southern hemisphere, I can imagine it would be the opposite...
@@streetcarp475 negative comment ??? Where ??? Wow to YOU && your simple mind 🤦♀️ Everyone is sooo sensitive on YT lmao..... this person was simply stating a FACT. Unreal.
They lighten and brighten the place! And you know maybe sometimes you can’t have the perfect art place light. You just have a place to do you art....and could someone make it better....this is the most negative post I’ve seen.....and although I’m new to George to the rescue.......I have marathon watched for a week...these guys do the very,very best for the people they are helping!
Please George never ever EVER AGAIN use this so-called designer. She did her level best to wreck a historic property because she had no idea the worth of it. I've never before seen a show of yours that I was disappointed in.
I had to stop watching this episode because I knew they were going to get rid of all the things that make this house special as it’s a Sears home! So disappointed!!!
What's wrong with the designer? She wrought havoc on the wood and tiles 😢 And the Dad had specifically stated how he loved it. Bad call George to use that "designer". Bad call. Did you hear the disappointment in his voice when he said "Look at the fire place"?
I can't believe they painted over all that beautiful natural woodwork!! I would be so pi$$ed if they did that to my house!! Same with the white paint on the fireplace. Completely ruined the house.
When she said it made sense to make the larger space the living are and the smaller the studio, I immediately though that she hasn't spent much time in artist's studios;) She even faced the easel away from the windows instead of the normal way even though she'd said that the Southern light would be good. They did a really good job, but I wonder how it would have been different if they'd had a designer who specialized in spaces for artists. She did a good job on the aesthetics.
so disappointed that they painted the woodwork.Studio light and "balance" have already been addressed. The new door really enhances/restores the style of the house. The personalities on this show-- especially the kids-- make it!
I'm oddly satisfied about the rain pouring. I've lived several places, but here in San Francisco it never pours. Nonetheless, if the rain gets much past a drizzle and starts to edge into light rain, natives will exclaim about the pouring rain. You can barely get wet walking in it.
why destroy a perfectly good little trees and perfectly good original wood work? why? not it looks like any new house with no character and the front of the house is 'empty'.
In 90% of the cases i love the renos George does but the color scheme the interior designer chose inside is dull, cold and impersonal... they did nothing at all to enhance the beautiful house this family had and what a shame to have covered in grey paint the gorgeous cabinets on each side of the fire place... i have never heard of an art room facing south/south-west... north is usually chosen for consistant light... i really hope the family likes it though 😕
He should be so proud to have raised two wonderful children, they are a credit to him
His children are so articulate and sweet. Coming from an educator... so awesome to see! You are an awesome human and Dad! Keep it up 💕
George tell that designer that you never never never paint natural beautiful wood.
Yet sooooo many people do it😭🤦♀️
We need to preserve old beauty
It's a nice change
As he cried, I cried. I thought why am I crying, I don’t know him from Adam. May God stay on your side.
Dad ... you have two amazing children
I love watching George but The designer didn't hear the owner say that he loved the wood as it was. I couldn't believe they painted over it.
What a lovely family! It is a little sad that while the owner said he loved the woodwork and the era, the designer did not.
I thought that too. I cringed when I saw them painting that woodwork. Everything they did designwise could have been accomplished with a slightly warmer palette and leaving the woodwork.
What the heck! Why in the world did she paint the brick??!!!! Gezzz! If this was my home I would be absolutely livid at the destruction! Shame, shame, shame!!! Lowered the value of the vintage bungalow. Please never use this woman again! What did "she" do with the mission style furniture he had which totally went with the style of the home?

👍🏻
The very first person on GTTR that I've absolutely loathed. 😑
I have to agree I didn't like the brick work. It looks like someone scraped cement over it.
Surprised the owner would allow the designer to paint over the natural wood, bricks. I get she wanted to lighten the room up, but bet she could have come up with other ways to do it.
They painted ALL the wood?! Oh my God. My heart. I think I just had a stroke.
Wow George, the orange accents are fabulous!
Aww These kids are so cool!
GBU TO YOU ALL,,
George is really kid friendly 😂💙
Well, he has 4 kids.
@@irajayrosen4792 Well, she was simply quoting what the daughter said on the show..........👍🏼
Those kids are adorable and practical models for society
I love this show but damn the most tears I had from this episode was the destruction of the amazing fireplace why just why ............and those kids are just the best
And painting all the woodwork. My heart would have broken if I'd walked in and seen that. AND where is all the beautiful craftsman furniture??
I loved the beautiful wood in that house. That and the original dark brick fireplace. Sad it was painted. It's a lovely home, lots of character.
Omg right,the second she painted it I cringed ...its the only episode I thought NOOOO dont do that ...it came out nice, I just wouldn't have painted it ...
Me too!
I totally agree. I was yelling at the screen "NOOOOOOO"
They destroyed a vintage Sears home in prime condition.
It WAS a lovely home with lots of character😔😓😭
What lovely children 😊🤗💞
Just love George!!!
As another person in recovery, I applaud you keep it up
I would never have painted that beautiful woodwork, it makes more work in the long-term keeping up the effect.
Well they did. They are the designer
They messed up the beautiful wood . Warmth & something natural replaced by ugly paint & synthetic surface
The earlier fireplace had much more character
@@jenhr57 a so-called "designer"
I love these kids.
Congratulations on your recovery. . I am so proud of you! Your a great father and a very good (and quite handsome) man. Your art is intriguing. Funny dog. Lovely children. Thanks George for the blessings you shared with these guys.
Thanks, Patricia! Our new season begins September 21 on NBC - we'll also be uploading the full episodes here.
Except for the dog.
George and Finn to the Rescue - has a great ring to it
Love these old Sears homes, and all the natural wood trim. Hope they're not intending to remove any of it.
They should build a new back yard for them ,they didn’t do to much ,in this house ,he need a beautiful back yard for the kids and the beautiful dog
2 beautiful angels for kids .lucky dad and also lucky kids
His kids are amazing! Loved them for loving their father endlessly!
Perfect...😊
Can't believe you painted over the beautiful wood, so sad!!! I think it was ruined, I said no, no as they were painting!!
“We’re gonna do 3 on this side & 1 on the other- to give it a sort of balance...” 🥴- the designer
Doing art myself, the best thing is to have a great art space with plenty of storage. Well done a George ! 💙💙
Wonderful bright,spirited and smart children who are a great support to their dad!! Nice Rescue!!
George your a wonderful man. You did a great thing for what's clearly a single dad and a truly talented man
I love all your shows. But please never use that designer again. My heart dropped when I saw that woodwork painted and the tile destroyed.
To the artist you have an amazing talent and a beautiful family and the perfect dog
George, get some education on restoration of historic buildings.
You ruined a gem to allow the designer to be "cool"
Except for the dog.
This man has done a magnificent job bringing up his children………what a lovely family…..Dad be proud of what you achieved and become……you have an awe beautiful family💙
Halfway through-- please, please don't change a thing about this Arts & Craft esthetic! This house is a treasure.
That so-called designer ruined a wonderful little house. Her desire for "modern" killed classic timeless. The only GTTR I've hated... though of course I love dad and the kids: how could I not?
Quarantine Vibe: George to the Rescue Marathon 😄
Love the arts!!!
Lovely family, lovely renovation! Proud of the dad!!!
George to the Rescue got me through the pandemic. Most certainly!
What a great dad. Those kids have the best start in life..and now George has given them a little boost.
The most important is the family loved it.
Agreed!
The family's reactions sounds so identical in all episodes that it makes you wonder if its scripted
George To The Rescue that is all that matters, the family loved it ! 💙💙

XD I was sad to see they covered all that natural wood with paint... after the owner said he liked the wood look... -.O
The first rule is "Listen to the client "
Maybe you should add a day to the process from now on to get to know the owner and research the house.
@@irajayrosen4792 this is not the first rule.

@@alittlewoowoo2214 WHAT SCHOOL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
@@lowesonia8551 it's a school for the destruction of classic and irreplaceable architecture.
What a shame they painted the natural wood instead of reconditioning it. It was so cozy.
I think painting the wood made the room brighten and give a large space feeling. Good job with much love.
The opening, when george nod at the front porch, thats when I realized, george is something.
Oh my god, she painted that beautiful wood! WTH?
The proof is in the kids. What a couple of living testimonies to a life of artfully done and skilfully executed both family and team.A s for painting the wood:It suits being a backdrop for art.
Enjoy!
A whole bunch of awesomeness!
Can not believe they painted the original wooden features to add a 'fashion' colour grey. Others people Buy a house for its 'Art Deco style and restore to its original beauty . Can any one imagine Painting over Frank Lloyd Wright?
I like it when the kid said that he is very proud....
This was such a sad renovation. Feels likrat you took all the character out of the house.
👍🏻👍🏻 GEORGE 💖💖💖💖💖 TO THE RESCUE 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 .. Well Deserving Family ! 👍🏻👍🏻

Gone with the wave of a hand.

This Woman should be Barred from relooking anything after the 60's.
Love you George
Sweet. Made me smile!
Amazing rescue. :-)
Those kids are happy polite and so smart. Hes done a great job raising them.
Extremely cute kids 😄
what awesome kids. You can tell he spends a lot of time with them , they are so mature and seem to be comfortable with themselves
They ruined that beautiful fireplace! ☹
Love this show and the stories. Love ❤️ George’s personality....
Inspirational🙏🏻
Should have tackled kitchen too... Even I'm sure they need it too.. I specially love watching kitchen renovated... Even love u more guys!
This hit my soul

This is such an inspiring life story. George done a great job in the home.
YUKKKKKKK
What a beautiful space was created and what beautiful children and dad.
LOL! George is kid friendly!
And PET-friendly! Gotta love George! :)

@@jenhr57 we're they going to criticize on camera?
The paint over the wood and the bricks is horrible. I hope the owner strips it all away in short order.
