I too looked forward to seeing what each contestant would create each week. But I must say, I was definitely let down. I found myself losing interest mid way through each episode and retreating to bed before the winner was revealed. I like Meg as a person, her designs seem to lack much of a wow factor.<br />I think Mark should of won, he is inventive and thinks outside the box. He's a better designer than Meg, but this is a television program, lest we forget. I see great design careers awaiting a few of the contestants.<br /> <br />Cheers and Bravo to all~Brandy Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00296093681367826622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2423793337615982912.post-53702865741821323212011-09-14T05:07:49.543-07:002011-09-14T05:07:49.543-07:00Booooo!

There were episodes where I thought a specific designer did well but never thought one was strong or on top through out the whole show. <br />Meg was one of my faves, even though she totally bombed on a couple. I just never knew who was going to win - no front runner. <br />Although that kitchen and dining room are total winners!!!!

I felt like her rooms are very...."trading spaces" whereas I was always interested to see how and what kind of architecture Karl was going to add to a room.
