"Great series on home improvement projects gone wrong, then made right by the Make It Right contractor, Mike Holmes. Utilizing real case scenarios, the show educates anybody considering hiring a contractor to do work on their property how to evaluate that contractor to prevent disasters to your finances and home; how to spot tell tale signs of poor workmanship; how best to handle the payment process, etc. The best part comes when Mike, the hottest contractor in overalls, & his boys rip out the junk job and re-do the project the right way, explaining how it's done. In the end, the poor people ripped off are made right by beautiful, skilled craftsmanship - the way it should have been done originally. Good entertainment for men and almost like porn for women - Mike & The Boys are great eye candy."

"Mike Holmes is Canada's premiere fix it guy. When previously a contractor has done shoddy work, and the homeowner is at wits end Mike and his crew step up to the plate and "make it right". If you live in the U S it may take you a few episodes to figure out that "eves troughs" are rain gutters LOL! but, Mike always goes above "minimum code" and I enjoy watching how he takes a botched repair and redesigns and reworks it so every thing is perfect. I have episodes 1 through 5 and I can't wait for 6 & 7 to be released. You can learn from these DVD's as well as be entertained by Mikes wit and the interactions of the crew members"
You learn a lot and have fun too

"First off, to anyone who buys this set, the show "Bar None" first show on disk two, is messed up. I had the set replaced and the same show had problems. the show froze after about 15 minutes.
Besides that little problem the rest like all 5 seasons out, is great.
