I have always loved this show and many like it. However in years past back to the days when Vila was still there up until say 5-7 years ago seemed they were working off a budget that was realistic for the mid to upper middle income crowd. Say 100-200k jobs.
Now adays seems most jobs these guys are on have no budget. Sky's the limit.
Caught a show last night where in the basement were panel after panel after panel of electrical and electronic systems with a hundred mile of wire pulled.
Just kind of makes it seem to me like unrealistic overages for the middle income family wanting to fix something up. Feel it has taken a bit of reality out of the show
Any thoughts?
