"Dirty Jobs" ... it has more variety

Then again, the "reality" with any of them is that if you've seen them once
...

Hell, the vilest of the vile, real estate agents, already coined a term for
that: "curb appeal".

This Old House, I guess that was around before shows were labeled Reality
TV.

That is the reality. Although the last year was a crummy little "shotgun"
style house in New Orleans.

I remember a few years ago when they were doing some kinda monster project
that cost big bucks. Apparently they got into arguments with the owners
considering how it would look if they tried to economize on materials or
labor for the house. They would be considered "cheap".

Can you imagine having to make decisions on remodeling your house depending
on what a TV audience thought of you? I am certain they would not approve
of me.

And that was a long time before:

"..and today's show will deal with a minor alteration to the driveway.
We'll talk to one of the operators of the 3 Cat D-9's who will be
