HGTV’s ROCK THE BLOCK Returns for Season 5
By Movieguide® Contributor
HGTV’s ROCK THE BLOCK will return this spring for its fifth season.
The hit show will feature seven episodes, and this season will focus on renovating waterfront homes in Florida.
HGTV reports, “Top HGTV designers have just weeks and a limited budget to renovate four blank-slate homes on the same block with their signature styles. The designers who net the highest appraisal get bragging rights and a street named in their honor.”
This season will feature four groups of competitors, which include Bryan and Sarah Baeumler from BATTLE ON THE BEACH, Keith Bynum and Evan Thomas from BARGAIN BLOCK, Leslie Davis and Lyndsay Lamb from UNSELLABLE HOUSES, and “billion-dollar real estate broker and house-flipping expert Page Turner and contractor Mitch Glew” from FIX MY FLIP.
“The competition format is incredibly popular with our viewers, with the previous run of ROCK THE BLOCK delivering HGTV’s highest-rated title in the first quarter of 2023 among two coveted demos, Adults 25-54 and Women 25-54,” Loren Ruch, HGTV’s Head of Content, said. “This season’s four expert teams know what it takes to compete on the block, so we’ll keep them on their toes and crank up the intensity with unexpected new challenges. Our stars are ready for a rematch and won’t hold back to win it all.”
During the competition, each pair will have a maximum budget of $250,000 to renovate the homes located in Treasure Island, Florida. In addition to being by the water, the homes will all include a boat dock and pool.
Ty Pennington, a carpenter, craftsman and design expert, will return to host the upcoming season.
The first four seasons of the show can be streamed on MAX. Season 5 is scheduled to air in March 2024.
